@jackwilliambell I hear you. I don’t think it ever really scars. I just get blindsided a lot less. Much less random bawling in public. – 04:59 AM GMT

@phirephoenix @arthurwyatt @ardaniel otoh the diff b/t ipad 1 and a mini is functional due to current HW features. – 04:21 PM GMT
@phirephoenix @arthurwyatt yeah, I use dropbox + text, diff apps depending on plat. some gdocs. – 04:22 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt the pricing is absurd, though. it always is for the tower-style pros. – 04:24 PM GMT
@phirephoenix @arthurwyatt @ardaniel interesting. if i’m bringing a bag someplace, I’ll bring ipad, otherwise, iphone is good enough. – 04:27 PM GMT
@ardaniel @phirephoenix @arthurwyatt i have a collection of field batteries for the phone I add or subtract from pockets as I head out! – 04:35 PM GMT
@phirephoenix makes sense. if I didn’t work at home that might affect usage. even then I’d be hauling laptop + ipad. – 04:38 PM GMT
