In preparation for our Europe Trip we made one big purchase...
That's right, an iPad.
Now I know there are a lot of iPad haters out there, and some of their points are valid, but for a two week trip to Europe I couldn't imagine a better device. It's size, weight (~1 lb), and usability make it the ultimate travel tool.
In fact, this will be the only technology that we'll be using for two weeks -- we're not bringing laptops or cell phones, just an iPad. So after we get back, I'll give a full review of how we survived on it for two weeks.
We should have free wi-fi in most of the hotels we're staying at -- so I may even do some Twitter and Blog updates via the iPad. And if a volcano erupts again, I may be working from the iPad if we're stuck in Europe (but hopefully not).
Are there any other iPad users out there? Are there any iPad apps that you think we should get for our trip?

Sending good vibes! Hope you can go. ;) And I would love an iPad!
Can't wait to hear how you like traveling with the iPad! I travel a lot for work and have been thinking about ditching my laptop for the iPad while traveling.
Cute blog!
I LOVE our iPad! I headed back "home" for a few days for a wedding, and it was great to have on the plane, while getting ready, the whole weekend! You'll love it! :)
If it played DVDs I think an iPad would be a perfect traveling tool. But you can still read and play games so I think it would be ok.
Have a great trip!
You better send us all a tweet tomorrow to let us know you got on the plane! Have a great trip!
I hope you make it out! Have a wonderful time =)
