Nobody is saying that the iPad will be their only computer, just it is small/light for travelling with and is there software to allow basic cataloguing/editing of Leica shots with it.... If using a full blown laptop, I like others chose a Mac Air, then there is no issue. john -----Original Message----- I'm talking about maybe our photography which we sweat about buying exclusive Leica gear for is too important to be editing with trendy hand held gadgets. Maybe we can put them down for a few minutes and enjoy the scenery - talk the the person next to us. And when we get back to your hotel/motel edit our photo's on a laptop. On a screen where we can see our images. I find the never ending search for more ways to spend even a higher percentage of our waking hours than 80 percent at a tiny hand held screen ridiculous. Perfect perhaps for the Sony point and shoot list but for the Leica list I just want more. Put the damn PDA down for a minute. There seems to be a direct reverse correlation between how much money people spend on a camera and how much time and effort and money they want to spend dealing with their pictures later. If this was the Linhof list we'd be talking about editing our output on our decoder pinky rings. Big camera small editing screen. It all balances out perhaps. I think we'd all be better off with cheaper cameras and a better workflo with premium software to do it with.
