I LOVE

my Samsung Galaxy Epic 4G Touch. I've had this phone since October 2011. Everyone raves about their IPhones, and the Galaxy is comparable to that.

Also in love with my Nano 5th Generation Ipod and is the best generation version out there since it has FM radio and other bells and whistles which the others don't have...

My girlfriend bought me the iPad 3 for my birthday a few weeks ago and I LOVE it. Not sure how I survived without it.. Lol. I have the 16gb LTE and the service is SO fast. I pay 30 a month through AT&T for 3gb. I use it constantly and I barely hit 1GB in 3 weeks. I wish they has a 2GB plan.

My MacBook might need an upgrade soon. I bought it in 2008, and it's still going strong but I am always looking out for new and better. I wanted a MacBook air, but with my iPad, I'm not sure I need it anymore.

My currently apple inventory is

IMac
MacBook
iPhone 4s
iPad 3

Im gonna add an Apple TV soon. I bought one for my ex before for his birthday, but it did not stream CC on Netflix so he returned it for somethig else. It was pretty nifty tho, minus that part. Now that I no longer live with anyone deaf, I don't need the CC haha. I was actually considering eliminating my cable bill and only using Apple tv for Netflix and Hulu and ordering the shows I really want on iTunes. So much cheaper!!!

I have a question for my iFriends:

Is it possible to transfer music from an iPod to a computer? Does one need some special software? I've googled it and found a lot of stuff that looks questionable to me. But I'm not techie. Help.

Thank you.

I am about to take my life completely mobile here in a week or two.
I am looking into which iphones are better ,which plan will work for me and also
am curious about ipads vs laptops as I dont want to deal with all online stuff being on a tiny phone. My laptop is dead anyway so I want to make a wise choice.
I need something to store a resume ,pictures,music and thats about it.

I'm with at&t and wonder if a hot spot (blah blah) is something I need.
I dont want to go there and have them talk me into a bunch of
shit I just dont need.300mg plan for phone? 3g for ipad? ugh I'm clueless.
I am doing all this to simplify my life so the monthly bill is important to me
but I also need something I'll be happy with.
I really want to choose wisely. I would appreciate any and all suggestions.
It sucks but I really dont have the time to really research anything.
Things have just fallen into place and I have to order what I want, fairly quickly.
I'm trying to envision a smoooth transition without having to crawl on the roof for a signal or smacking anything around because it's too slow

pms appreciated because you may have to talk to me like I'm five or something. snort

i copy from my itunes to a hard drive then to whatever i want....

girl_dee · 06-09-2012, 07:01 PM

Dude,

it depends on you. For ME, I could never replace my laptop with an ipad... i store about 10,000 photos and process them all on my laptop... i watch movies on netflix on my iphone at night and love it,,, others say it's too small...

i have the 15 inch MacBrookPro 2009 edition and i LOVE this machine, for the first time since the laptop/computer i don't want to replace it. i have to do a software upgrade but that's optional, it runs fine and believe me, i run it through the mill.....

Now Syr who uses the computer for browsing the net and checking email hasn't turned on her laptop since we got her the ipad. It's not a 3g edition because that is a whole nother charge from the phone company and she just doesn't need it, there is wifi everywhere and she hardly needs that function.

My spirit sister uses her iphone like a computer, she checks weather, email, facebook even keeps her grocery list on it...

The plans are different every where you go, so you may have to end up going in and chatting them up!

ruffryder · 06-09-2012, 07:11 PM

I'm not sure you can copy the iPod content to a computer. I've only known to Copy from the computer to the iPod and all you need is the USB cord. I could be mistaken.
Dude, I think an iPad will work for you for what you want to use it for. It is a big iphone. I would suggest a Droid phone cause you can hook it up to a mini laptop but i'm not sure AT&T Carries them; they are more known for IPhones. I would suggest if you can go to an apple store with these questions. As for needing wi fi, internet, how many gigs, maybe they have a bundle or unlimited option. You can always downgrade if you don't use it alot. I'm not sure what all at& t offers, I have Verizon. Maybe some others will come in and answer also. ,
