Pre-order an Apple iPad today at 8:30am EST

This is a quick entry to ensure you’re aware of the Apple iPad pre-orders that open today at 8:30am EST or 5:30am PST. The device ships on April 3rd. After previously referencing 10 reasons I won’t buy an iPad, I’ve had some time to look more into the device. Rather than focusing on what the iPad isn’t, such as a replacement for your laptop or phone, there are ways the device will be very useful and fun. I’ll be using it to read e-books and magazines, play games, watch videos and to help stay organized.
