That may be so, but it's not your father's "stuff" you're holding onto..but you're neighbor's, correct?

Define "everything" and teach me.
Right now, I use my iPad for e-mail and browsing, mainly. I follow RSS feeds of my favourite fashion blogs and tweet from it.
I store some technical manuals in PDF format in my iBooks library and I run PowerPoints using either Dropbox or SlideShark.
I'm starting to use the calendar, but that's about it.
What else is this thing good for?

For what I will do with the car, street driving, it works great.. The brakes are good, and the handling and the power are fine for me..

Sure the exhaust isn't the same, but no biggie.. Sure they have an Oil temp gauge,
I don't read it. It may have read 210, but if I am only street driving and some traffic in hot weather, I could care less..

The tank is full of gasoline, so I don't worry, and over all , the 2009 Sport/Touring felt great, and looked even better..

But I am 52, so I won't be racing it on the street or modding it..

That is what I have the crazy Z/28 for...Redline and track days..

But Today I drove the 370Z ...Finally.

Only the gas Gauge is lame, but that is a pimple..Hopefully I won't have any of the problems 370z's have ,but time will tell..

Today was a good day...except for the hater tailgaters..But haters will hate...No sweat.
Very nice sir!

How you doing?

I use Paprika for all my recipe needs which, when synced, updates my iPhone's Paprika app for groceries. I love that app, and have ~300 recipes built in it. I use my iPad in a docking station in the kitchen to follow the recipe, and the apps browser can scrape recipes from most sites. I could go on and on about it, if interested, you should check it out.

I also like the Skyfire browser for its Java capabilities.

I use Good for Enterprise to keep on top of our Exchange email at work.

Amazon has a great shopping app, and I love Fandango for checking movie listings, previews and pre-purchasing movie tickets.

No Gen 3 sadly. The ones we have were bought for store exposure and of course, bought too close to the release of the current model. If we get any, I'll be sure to let you know.

Hey Happy.. Thanks for asking. I am better...More heart tests soon..I know, does he have a bad Brain, or a bad Heart ?? Both..I do thing on a large scale...No hang nails...

I am coming out of my haze from the new medication..that is why I haven't driven for almost a month.. New medications really screw up the body...I have been anti -pill for 52 years..Now it is several a day, haha..But sadly no more Pale Ale's....That would screw me up..

But today I got the 370z out.. Loved it.. Just spirited driving, nothing fancy..

That commercial that says to enjoy your independence while you can...I sure am, when I can..

Maybe driving the 370Z again tomorrow..Then I gotta put some more miles on the Z/28, new rear gears , ect..., before I do a 4000RPM clutch dump, and three gears of close ratio sideways...That is the car I beat the heck out of..

But I cannot wait to wind the 370 up to the power Band at higher RPM, where it makes it power, but soon...

I will let you know how it goes...So far , so good...I am still here and that is the most important thing...
