If you re not wedded to 3g, you could have a gander at the ipod touch. I
believe it is going to be able to read Ibooks with vo when the iphone os 4.0 is
released.

Hi David, thanks for the info; I'm looking for something portable, to do a
little surfing, e-mail (that sometimes gets a little long), and something with
a spread-sheet app for keeping track of certain data results while on the road.
I've also seen mention of IBooks, and if the books are accessible that would be
another use for the device. I've also been looking at the IPhone, but the plans
here in Canada seem rather expensive!

If you are planning doing a lot of typing of long documents, by all means get
the keyboard doc although it decreases the portability of the device and does
not fit well to the ipad in my experience.

Thanks Olivia, I'll have to look at the Keyboard Dock if I end up going the
IPad route.
