No one really needs an ipad, per se. I don't "need" one but had a chance to get one very cheap and decided to get it. At some point, once I have help here, I'll need to travel for a new business project. At that point I'll want a 3G Ipad with more memory. I'll probably give this one to my son or Mia. lol yeah she's only one year old but she goes to down on my iphone and laptop.

Hush! There is always a need

For me, I know if i could go completely to an iPad my back would be thrilled because that would mean less to haul when on the road. Much like other computing devices my adage is that if it does what you need then it is needed. If it doesn't then it's a want. I did recently get the 3G iPad 2 and gave my older iPad to K to play with. She likes that she can watch vids while on a treadmill and play Mahjogg as a way to relax after a hard day while watching tv.

It will be interesting to see where things are 25 years from now as tech changes so rapidly.

Now I have to think of a need.

Thanks for finding the info Linus! I haven't tried it yet, I'm sure one of the fixes has to fix my problem. You're the greatest!

Anyone using an iShieldz ?

They are pretty neat, they come with a lifetime guarantee and work really great.

Nope. I don't really need one. My screen doesn't scratch at all and I carry my phone in my pocket.

I read somewhere about that shield ( years ago ) where ppl was havin problems with the shield. Not being able to scroll easier then without one. Also ppl complained when they took the shield off, it left marks / residue on their phone that they couldn't get off.

I don't use them. I use Zagg on mine and unlike what some of the reports mentioned by durrrrr, it's never left a residue. They use just distilled water to create the seal. It's worked perfect for mine and K removed it off my old iPad without any marks left.

My biggest challenge with the screen on the iPad/iPhone is fingerprints and that's why I got the Zagg shield. Easier to clean with no potential for scratches, spills or other stuff happening to the screen.

Thank you I had no idea they had an alternative.. I will check this one out too... I haven't done the ISheildz on mine yet but it works great on Syrs, I do hope now she never has to take it off....

I wonder if I even need one though!

I'll give it to you..... here goes


You NEED an Ipad with a good photo imaging app to fuel your creativity. Your photography is very important to you and we all know that its not just about taking them but to properly display them. You NEED the ipad because it gives you the artistic creativity to move about into areas that inspire you.

I had the otterbox on mine for a long time. I admit that it has saved me, especially being on the farm. I am famous for sticking eggs in my pockets while i feed the pig and then rubbing up against something and smashing them in my pocket. I've ruined a few blackberry phones.

My Iphone is a year old now. I have special replacement insurance with a 50.00 deductible. I hate the bulk and weight of the otterbox so I decided not to use it. Its been a few months and I have no scratches. I've dropped it at least a dozen times. It hasn't met the egg test yet and I haven't dropped it into a bucket of water.

The newest iphone has a special glass that is the strongest yet. I'm not sure if they use this on ipad but I'm guessing they work hard to make the product leading edge. Especially as competition begins to surface.

One of our neighbors ran over his iphone with the Otterbox,with his TRACTOR, it survived! Syr has one but I chose the Hot Pink Bubble Gel cover.. it's spiffy. I stick eggs in my pocket too, but so far no scrambled ones. They had the otterbox with the belt clip, that works good too.

I found a great cover for my iPhone on eBay - although now reading about the otterbox saving the phone I might just look into that.

I am hard on phones, as I tend to be talking on em and juggling keys and bags etc and banged up my Blackberry many times.

Thanks for the idea about the Otterbox
