But despite the fact that I love the MBP, I still find around the house that what is ever present is my iPod Touch. Aside from the small screen impairing the readability of text, I can do 75+% of what I need to do at home in a given day on that device. I can update our web site, interact on Twitter, stay on top of Facebook, check my e-mail, do online banking, etc. The one shortcoming is the inability to read documents efficiently. Now if I had a iPod Touch with a 8" screen that would be a game changer for me. Reading our e-Edition and our new mobile lfpress.com web site suddenly becomes feasible. I may not need to get our paper delivered to my home each day. The less expensive e-Edition would more than suffice. And as for all the PDFs I need to review each day, piece of cake on that size screen. Instant on/off is a huge plus as well.
