+1 The text looks remarkably sharper and I believe, when Logos updates the app properly to take advantage of the retina display, it will look even better!

Sorry Alabama, I was just gushing. It was a relief, to me cause I had just bought the ipad2 last year and was second guessing myself until I saw the screen and the sharper text. My wife got the iPad 2 and she's happy she doesn't have to share it wit me anymore

Ditto, and I like it too!
For the group here that spends a lot of time thinking, studying and (presumably) note-taking, what kinds of other apps would you recommend for "theological" productivity?

I find Evernote (for note-taking) and Dropbox (for accessing documents on my iPad) to be excellent.

Hurray! I just got my new Ipad in the mail today...all the way from China via Alaska. I set it up and spent the afternoon browsing and trying to learn by experimenting how to make things work. The Greek texts show up so nicely, bright and clear. Downloaded a few books, a grammar and a lexicon, and so can maybe go eat something now. [:P]
Having used the Nook Color for this in the past, I see that the size of the Ipad is just right for me. My wife gave me permission to get it so I put her name on it and maybe even I'll let her use it.
It is a great tool.

I got the 16 gb I don't Use y the iPad for movies pictures or music. We have a 16 gb IPad 2 also which we never even come close to filling up, usually carried about 8 gb free, so my wife talked me out of a 32 gb. For 100 dollars more I wouldn't have minded the extra space, but I just couldn't bring myself to buy it.
I am learning to be a good steward of iPad space
Did you decide to get one or are you still contemplating? The resolution is remarkable, the text is really sharp. It has impressed me more than I thought it would

I also got my new iPad today. I bought the 64 gig and my favorite part is the dictation that I just spoke this

I bought the 32gb in white and wi-fi version. Pricey enough for me. It is so nice. I just downloaded a bunch of apps and of course, Logos was the first one, then Skype and Netflix. Don't know if I will use the other one unless on a trip. Now need a good wrap around case. I saw one at a conference and should have asked to examine it. It looked like the man was carrying a leather folio case in tan leather. I didn't know it was an IPad in it.

It is pricey, and yet evidently not overpriced since Apple's competitors are having trouble matching its capabilities at substantially lower prices. If I can talk myself into buying one (it's been an ongoing conversation between me and me!), then the 32GB is probably what I would go with, in black.
Here is a good review of some cases.

Thanks, Bill, for the suggestion on the cases. I am looking at them now. The IPad is very slippery in the hands and I won't take it anywhere until I get a case for it.
The problem is choosing. Very hard to do. I have placed the link you sent in the favorites. I knew about zagg and maybe that is the way to go, leather and keyboard. I have regretted buying cheap in the past.

Replying to myself is rather stupid, maybe. But I wanted to add that I just figured out how to configure several email accounts. Please don't ask me, I could not give a rundown. I used the hunt and peck method, but did it.
Then I went to Netflix to sign in. I had already watched part of a video on the TV which was the US Parks and so I then picked up where I had left off to see how nice the screen would look. Remember this is NetFlix with whatever definition it is in. And it looked very nice, detail like the fur on the bison and the water going over the Yosemite Falls was really nice.
That added, I wish I owned Apple shares and could then reap the benefits of this promotion! lol.
Yours in our Lord, for His glory,

I have an original iPad, so you will have to take my advice with a grain of salt… the Apple branded "wrap around" cases don't work with mine.
My folks bought my wife and I the iPad to share. They bought a Targus case, which is basically to carry the device around in… the case does not stay on the iPad while you are using it. I took the case back, tried several others, and went back to buy the Targus one back. One thing that I didn't like about the other cases (that stayed on the iPad) is that they interfered with the keyboard doc/charging station (I don't recommend that either). My point is that you should make sure the case will work with other accessories you may be wanting to use.

I am playing around with my new 32gig wi-fi iPad! It is amazing reading the text - so clear. My main reason for purchase was Logos, reading and note taking rather than in depth study. It is perfect, better than I expected. And the logos app is snappy on it too.
I just need to make sure my family don't steal it now. We had great fun this afternoon creating a couple of movie trailers with the family and iMovie - maybe I should have not let them see they would enjoy it

I just got my first iPad and I have to say that I think the layout for Logos for the iPad would be better if it lookedv more like the Mac version and less like the iPhone version. Plenty of screen space to have more there. The passage guide shoud at least include the Bible verse you are using

Thanks a lot,
This was a very interesting link. I like that the bookbook case has a zipper to enclose it and keep out the rain if we get caught in a shower.
All the other posts have been interesting. This is getting a lot of comments.

Had my new 64gb verizon enabled iPad in hand friday morning around 9. I actually called the fedex store and asked them to hold it rather than deliver so that i could get it sooner. Upgraded from (and gave to wife) a 32 gb wifi only ipad 2. I use a Yoobao executive leather case. I love it because it is very thin and looks much like a padfolio. It also has the ability to stand up in two directions. Today my wife bought a Speck pixelskin case. We were disappinted to find that it did not include the magnets to turn the ipad on and off. If my Yoobao case is any indication, most ipad 2 cases will fit the new ipad as well.

Gotcha. By the way… the "iPad app" is the same app as the "iPhone app." The app has UI differences for each platform, but its the same app.

I hadn't compared them, but I hope that Logos considers changing that, especially with the display on the new iPad. Plenty of room to add more info on the screen for the iPad.

Ron, since you have both, please convince me that saving 100-150 dollars to buy a refurbished ipad 2 will be a smart choice and that I won't think I need Retina display [;)] . . . I did get some birthday money for an ipad, which I was totally surprised and thrilled to hear. My main question is whether to stay with the 16 GB or move up to 32. Again, because of price, will probably go 16 GB. I will mostly use it for Logos and some Kindle, some free games and perhaps an occasional movie (rent and/or my own HD movie capture). I think 16 will be enough, but I am a little concerned, because I know I won't have all 16 gig available to me.

Dan, I'd seen these. they look cool, for sure. would be interested in your feedback when you start using it. I think right off the back, I would like to be able to display it either portrait or landscape, which bookbook can't do (only landscape, it seems). Curious about the weight, and the ease of using it to read when in bed. And perhaps removing it, as necessary.

I suggested years ago that we should have access to our Logos resources on Palm devices. I got an iPhone mainly for the Logos app. After two years I finally got an iPad on Friday — 64 GB 3rd generation. The screen is so beautiful I already can't stand looking at Logos on my laptop (for some reason Logos looks terrible on my laptop while other applications look fine.)
Anyway, I am going to love reading on this device. I believe in protecting equipment like this. Unfortunately the smart cover seemed too pricey as well as needing a separate back case. I'm a Zagg fan, but again — too pricey. Found these two items on Amazon and installed as soon as iPad arrived. Both seem great!
Case, $24.95: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006R2OH4A/ref=oh_o01_s00_i00_details
Screen protectors (3 for $9.79 and looks better than the Zagg on my iPhone did. Can't tell that it hinders the awesome retina display in any way): http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004TRYENE/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details
Not worried about the family stealing the iPad. I am happily sharing this wonderful device!

Ron, First off when I got my Ipad 1 I only had the choice of 16 or 64 gig... I knew that I wanted the 64. Normally with about 50 of my logos books downloaded, a few movies, several games and in general about 200 apps... I have about 16-18 gig free at any given time... If your logos is extensive and you plan on downloading all of your books, then the 16 gig will not be large enough. A 16gig ipad has about 14 gig usable... just a thought.

The BookBook weighs about the same as a copy of macworld magazine. I will let you know more when i have my iPad tuesday at the latest.if you are talking about using it as a stand the leather strap secures it well for a stand in either viewing positions. as for in bed i will let you know by wednesday...

Dan, i wish i could be more convincing. Don't look at a retina display and you'll never miss it.
. Is it worth $100? I don't think so but combined with better graphics performance, faster processor, and voice recognition it is to me. Also, i would never, ever encourage someone to go with a 16gb model. The 32gb model actually has 28gb of available space. With my 32gb i was constantly having to delete apps and pics to m ake sure i wouldnt fill it up. A friend planned to buy a 16gb but because they were out of stock he got a 32 as well. He is not a logos user but quickly filled it up with pics, songs, and video. Most people who buy the ipad tend to use it much more than anticipated. All that said, my 32gb ipad 2 that now belongs to my wife still packs plenty of punch for pure logos use.

Hi Dan. FWIW, I have trouble imagining buying smaller than the 32GB model. I don't know about Logos, but some apps are taking up a good bit more storage due to the requirements for the Retina display. I'm almost persuaded to buy the 64GB model, but I'm having enough trouble persuading myself to spend $600 (plus taxes plus cover) for the 32GB model. As inexpensive as memory is, it is unfortunate that Apple chose to stay with the 16/32/64 GB models instead of going with 32/64/128 GB models.
Also, again FWIW, I had been holding off buying an iPad since last summer because of the rumored Retina display for what was to be iPad 3. I do understand tight funds, but I think the Retina screen would keep me content longer with this tablet than with the lower resolution of the iPad 1 or 2. Then again, I'm really picky about such things. If you are not, count yourself blessed! [;)]

The new iPad retina display is sharper; Apple has book screen shot comparison => http://www.apple.com/ipad/features/ (with movable magnifying glasses)
Another review mentions older iPad's displays are fuzzy in comparison => http://www.businessinsider.com/new-ipad-retina-display-2012-3

I speak from the minority, as I have the 16 gb version of the new iPad. I have managed even with a good number of apps not to put a dent in the 13.3 gb which are available. I qualify it by saying that I did not buy a iPad for movies or music strorage. It was bought primarily for preaching, on the go study using logos, and keeping up wit prayer request etc.
After using the iPad 2 16 gb for a year and never dropping to less than 7 gb I personally couldn't justify for myself the extra 100 dollars. If you have the money I would certainly recommend a larger size storage as bigger means less have to manage space.
Logos is the app with the biggest file size on my iPad and I have about 800 mb of books downloaded, as many books in my library are deemed non essential to quick on the go study.
It is possible with less storage to still make due, if you don't have the funds available. You must budget what's important to you. If movies and music are important to carry around, then you probably want bigger. Pictures And personal movies can be managed by buying he camera addition that has a sd card reader.
That being said I've never heard of anyone complaining about having too much space, and i have heard of many who wished they had more.

wow, I appreciate your input. I don't really need it for music. I still have a 160 GB classic ipod for that. I thought I might make a movie every now and then, but I could transfer it once it is saved. I thought I might download a movie or two on occasion. That is normally about 2 GB each, right? Would retina change that? Hmmmm.

I think you may have hit upon a good solution, getting the 16GB now and then reselling and getting a larger one later as finances improve. And if not, you just have to manage the storage that you have. That may be inconvenient but not a huge problem. You'll still have a topnotch tablet and you will not have created an issue with finances.

Dan, hd movies can be quite large, with a 2 hr movie about 3-5 gb, you will find the rental option available, and the best option, I think it would be hard with a 16gb to have too many he movies reside permanently. I think as Bill stated, you are on the right track, getting a smaller one which works with your finance, trying it out, and if you need bigger resell and get bigger.
When I got the iPad 2 last year it was my first step into the tablet market, so we went small to see if we would like it. Turns out we loved it, but I also learned what was a priority to me with all that was available app wise. I have my apps, my wife had hers, and my kids wanted any app that they could get heir hands on. We made it all work, having 4 people with many different app preferences, we just learned to manage and prioritize which apps are important and which we're not. Some don't want the hassle of deleting apps and managing space, which I can also understand.
As your Saga continues, good luck to you, whatever you get, I think you will find that it was worth the purchase
Forgive all the misspellings, sometimes going back and correcting them from the iPad is a pain. Lol

For those of you considering how much storage space you will need for movies on the iPad I offer my solution. I use a program called Cucusoft to rip DVD's that I own to my computer in an iPad friendly (MP4) format. I just checked two of the movies in my itunes library for comparison. "The Blindside is 943mb while "Fireproof" is 682mb. If you go this route you can budget around 1gb per movie and come out ok.

Not knowing exactly where to place this comment I slip it gently in here.
I finally got the Zagg case with the keyboard from BestBuy because I didn't want to wait for Amazon's mail. The keyboard works well, the on/off magnet thing does not although the box says this thing is compatible with the new gen. IPad. I can do without that feature anyway and I intend to find another case when I grow some more money in the garden. I want a wrap around leather one, light and protective. The Zagg case is a little heavy with the Ipad in it.
I am hunting and pecking around with the Itunes sync. I haven't used ITunes a lot for some time and when I did a wi-fi sync I saw notices show up in the itunes folder of apps and books and I wondered if it copied apps like Logos and a Spanish Bible over to the ITunes on my computer. That would be a waste if it did. In any case, the pictures I wanted to copy did copy to the IPad and that was what I wanted to do.
Can someone, please, tell me if the wi-fi sync with ITunes places apps from the IPad onto the computer?? That would be awful if it does that.
Thanks, this is an interesting forum.
Blessings to all out there,
E.

Ergatee, did you go to settings and turn on the cover lock/unlock believe its found on the general settings, I can't remember if it is on or off by default. I have never messed with the iTunes wifi sync, so someone more experienced will have to fill you in on that. Hope I helps

Well, I need to address the issue about things being copied from the Ipad to the Itunes on the computer when enabling a sync.
It does copy what can be a large number of mb to the Music Library/Mobile applications on the C drive. I hate that.
Any suggestions regarding how to do a one way sync? I don't see why I would need to have these apps on my laptop computer. Is it for safety? I suppose so. Maybe I should leave them there? Because it is a sort of back up. Maybe using the ICloud is the better way to go? Of course, I know that it is 5gb and so limited, but I don't really buy movies from Itunes/Apple or music. I got enough things to do and spend most of my time on biblical subjects.
Thanks to any one with experience who can give some advice on this.
Regards to all in His Name,

Thanks for you kindness. I followed the current pdf on using the IPad and it sent me to general/
iPad Cover Lock / Unlock
You can automatically lock or unlock iPad 2 or later when you use it with the iPad Smart Cover (available separately). When this feature is turned on, iPad automatically locks and goes to sleep when you close the cover, and then wakes when you open it. This setting appears when you attach the iPad Smart Cover.Since I didn't see a heading IPad Cover I ignored the rest. Copying this to you from page 125 must mean that I am to put it at unlock. Not sure but will try.
Wow! After writing the above, I just understood that you have to have the smart cover in place to have access to that setting. Since I have the Zagg cover, I may not get that possiblity.
Thanks!!

Ergatees - I am a Mac snob, so you will have to forgive me. I don't really know how it works on the PC. The reason that it is syncing up is to create a backup… not just of the apps (which can be re-downloaded), but also of the info associated with those programs. Personally, I use iCloud. The 5GB is more generous than you think… Apps are not included in the 5GB (because they can be re-downloaded), nor is media purchased through iTunes (music, tv, movies). Actually, iTunes Music Match makes it even better… the rest of your collection gets matched up and can be downloaded at will. This includes music from other sources (such as CD's or Amazon). It's only $25 a year.

Hiya, Alabama24,
Very valuable info. I was a Mac user years ago on the little 128kb Mac. Remember that? lol So I am used to the hunt and peck method and when it doesn't work I begin to dive into the guides/manuals. So did that and all is well. Learned a few lessons in this fight.
Well, I erased all the extra mbs (apps, etc.) from my computer (laptop) "c" drive. Gotta keep room for my precious i.e. the Logos 4. I saw that when I did the setup for syncing when the IPad is hooked up to the PC all the categories were checked and *everything* was getting backed up to the computer. So got into there somehow and unchecked most categories. I use the University thingy more than the other stuff.
Then I found that the books I had downloaded from the store were gone from the IBook on Ipad. So had to download them again. I think now I have this baby under control. No time to talk to anyone around the house; it's all IPad for the last 3 days!
I love Alabama. Even lived there for a time.
Take care,
E.
