But now, I am head over heels in iPad &lt;3. How did such an about face happen? This top ten list of things to &lt;3 about an iPad 3 gives you an idea.<\/p>\n<p>10.\u00a0 It&#8217;s much easier to wrestle from beneath the airplane seat (where the flight goddesses insist it be placed during take off and landing) than a Mac laptop. The strangers seated beside me &#8211; the ones normally elbowed black and blue during the technology retrieval wrestling match &#8211; &lt;3 the iPad 3 for this reason, too.<\/p>\n<p>9.\u00a0\u00a0 The note feature, where I jot down ideas and to-do list items, sends the list to my email box 12 hours later. By then, my 55-year-old brain has forgotten about the list, so the iPad 3 has become my personal assistant.<\/p>\n<p>8.\u00a0\u00a0 The Kindle app makes it easy to check out library books or order them from Amazon. So far, no matter how hard I try, it&#8217;s been impossible to destroy the process!<\/p>\n<p>7.\u00a0\u00a0 The Kindle feature means it&#8217;s also easier to travel light. However, the feature does not help me stay awake at night long enough to read more than a paragraph or two. (Apple research and development people, would you get to work on that?)<\/p>\n<p>6.\u00a0\u00a0 Fingerprints on the touch screen give the obsessive-compulsive part of my personality something to obsess about. Now if someone would invent a microfiber sleeve cuff, I&#8217;ll be set for life. (Another idea for the Apple R &amp; D department.)<\/p>\n<p>5.\u00a0\u00a0 Going to Apple Store classes with all the other old people determined to get their money&#8217;s worth from their new gizmos makes me feel young, since most of them look older than me.<\/p>\n<p>4.\u00a0 Thanks to the iPad 3, the Square app, and the card swiper do-hickey, I can now accept plastic when manning my book table. I haven&#8217;t used it yet, but my sister says it&#8217;s really easy to use. She said the same thing when she taught me to play jacks, jump rope, and color in the lines, and was right, so I believe\u00a0 her about this, too.<\/p>\n<p>3.\u00a0 I can buy a month of Verizon service for $20 before traveling. Being able to access the internet in any airport is worth the investment, especially during <a href=\"http:\/\/jolenephilo.com\/staging\/2012\/04\/top-10-lessons-learned-during-6-hour-southwest-airline-flight-delay\/\">6 hour flight delays<\/a>. And when Hiram and I are on the road and the one in the passenger seat, we love being able to update our websites. (www.jolenephilo.com, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.differentdream.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">www.DifferentDream.com<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.philoguitar.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">www.philoguitar.com<\/a>.)<\/p>\n<p>2.\u00a0 Using the iPad 3 to type notes at church or workshops makes me feel so techie and with it and disguises the fact that I need the notes feature in order to remember anything.. In fact, while I type away, the people around me are probably thinking, &#8220;Wow, look at that young woman typing on her iPad. Surely, it&#8217;ll be decades until she can order from the senior citizen&#8217;s menu at IHOP.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>1.\u00a0 The iGeniuses at the Apple Store love me. They recognize my face when I walk in the store. Most of them know my name. Not only that, they laugh whenever I ask a question. Who knew a 55-year-old, who doesn&#8217;t look it and can&#8217;t remember any of their names, could bring so much cheer to the lives of lonely, intelligent, twenty-something techie geeks?<\/p>\n<p>Do you have an iPad?
