I've thought of a possible app which would make me want an iPad.

It would involve a stylus - and I gather the point of the iPad is not to have the stylus - but I don't care. I don't want any old tablet computer, I want an iPad! Then my iPhone, my iPad, and my Macbook could all hang out and feel all appley...


Anyway. Imaginary app:
You open a pdf document.
And you get your stylus, and make handwritten notes all over the document.
And the iPad creates a new pdf, with the original document AND all your notes in red.
So you can print out a red-pencilled edit of the whole thing, or just email it to someone.

Wouldn't that be useful? We could call it iEdit!


Oh please tell me it exists...

Oh! Btw, you're learning Latin, right? I just spent a week in a full-immersion Latin "camp" and there was a Latin teacher there from Melbourne. I don't know where you are in Aussieland, but I kept thinking I should hook you up. :P (and yes, I know how big it is over there, and the chances of you actually being in the same city)

Ooh...

(I am from Melbourne, as it happens.)

Ooh! Would you like me to contact him? He's a high school teacher (most of the people there were) and has only just begun speaking Latin, like me. Maybe y'all could have coffee. I'm pretty sure it was Melbourne...
