The Most Well Travelled New iPad In The World


Welcome to Toolkit Time #7. I took a little break during June when I had the Build Your Online Business Series (BYOB) going on.

But now we’re back to bringing you a short video each Tuesday introducing you to a cool tool to make you more effective at running your business from anywhere in the world.  This is Toolkit Time!

This week I’ve taken a slightly different twist with a fun video on why I think my iPad my be the most travelled new iPad in the world. Watch the video for the story on why I only just broke this out of it’s box a few days ago.

Using The iPad As The Ultimate Travel Tool

I mention a few things in this video that are going to make my life as a suitcase entrepreneur that much easier now I’ve finally given in to the lure of the iPAd.

It’s my new super lightweight mobile laptop.

Longer Lasting

With a battery that will last way longer than my current laptop’s pitiful 2 hours I can happily work for hours when on a plane, train, boat or cafe without lugging around my battery pack.

Ergonomical

I also won’t get a sore neck or shoulder from carrying  heavy bag with laptop and books because the iPad is so light and I can read books directly by installing the Kindle App.

Double Trouble

Thanks to Matthew Goldfarb’s suggestion I bought the awesome Zagg ZMAP9701KB Zaggmate Hard Metal Case with Keyboard Fits Apple iPad 1st Gen.

The cool keyboard acts as an iPad stand and a protective hard shell cover – two great uses for the price of one- see right for Matt modelling this look (while texting on his iPhone).

If you have an iPad or a Blackberry Play what do you love most about it for your business travels?
