This Doesn't Make Me a Fanboy

My company's product has traditionally been used on regular computers, but like most companies we've realized that we need to be able to work well on mobile devices.  As a sales engineer, I demo our product.  I can always show it on my laptop, and although I have my Android-based Samsung Epic, I didn't have a way to demo on any of the popular Apple devices.  Until now.  All the sales reps in my territory chipped in to buy an iPad 2 for each SE in the territory.  I'll be expected to use it in demos for customers, but it's truly mine, so I'm free to use it as my personal device as well, and I never have to give it back.  I've never had an Apple product before, and I've never really felt the need, but the iPad is clearly the way to go for tablets, so if I'm going to have one, it might as well be an iPad.  Here I am with my new toy.
