deirdreI can has iPad. I have a 16 G model.
I haven't gotten any writing done in the last couple of days, but that's because I've been busy working on getting my process set back up; it broke some time around my Snow Leopard install because I had mixed 32- and 64-bit binaries trying to compete.
This involved:
1) unscrewing up my install of macports
2) updating all my ruby stuff
3) researching what I might want to write with on the iPad.
On #3, I'm not really happy with any of the choices. In an ideal world, I'd want:
a) Text file only editor
b) ...that understood markdown
c) ...that syncronized to my computer via wifi
d) ...that checked things into subversion on my desktop
e) ...that would then have some way to integrate into my own bastard system that'll generate pdfs and rtfs.
But hey, I'm dreaming, right?
Well, I have a) covered. It does some of c) but I'm unhappy with it -- too manual.
