I'll be taking a train ride (3 days each way) and want to be able to read
without lugging lots of books. Not sure whether the train will have wifi
but if I'm somewhere that does, I'd like to be able to check my email.
(1) Should I consider any device other than an iPad?
Someone suggested a Kindle Fire.
(2) Which models of iPad can do what I need? I probably don't need the
fanciest. Can they run for 3 days without needing a new charge?
(3) Will I need to purchase a monthly "data service" to read email etc.
away from home?
(4) What retailers do you recommend (or recommend against)?
(5) At home I have a MacBook Pro (my 5th Mac since 1987) attached to
my DSL modem by a cable. What would I need to use an iPad at home?
adTHANKSvance!
