I am not a gadget person.  Romeo Mio is a gadget person.  Therefore, I am now learning how to play nicely with gadgets.

&nbsp;

<strong>Gadget#1:  The iPad 2.</strong>

&nbsp;

Would I ever buy an iPad 2?  Heck, no.  <strong>I may be drinking the Magic Kool-Aid,</strong> but there's still a trace amount left at the bottom of my dixie cup.  I have a MacBook Pro which is beyond A-W-E-S-O-M-E.  It does everything I want it to do and oh so much more.  Why on earth would I complicate my life with yet another gadget that isn't as functional as my most cherished treasure (next to Romeo Mio, my family, my friends, and Little Miss B, of course)?

&nbsp;

I won the iPad 2 at work for a sales contest.  Woo hoo!

&nbsp;

It sat in the box unopened for about 3 weeks until Romeo Mio arrived.

&nbsp;

Romeo Mio and I actually had our one and only spat over that bloody iPad 2.  It started with me whining about emails.  I am under a steady email stream at work, at home, on my Crackberry (See? I told you there was some Kool-Aid leftover!), and now I am expected to manage emails on my iPad 2?!?!  ARGH!!!!

&nbsp;

My temper tantrum annoyed Romeo Mio to no end.  Romeo Mio, who consumed every last drop of his Kool-Aid years ago, reprimanded for me behaving like a selfish wench.  If I wasn't grateful for my FREE iPad 2, then he would gladly take it off my hands.

&nbsp;

Hmph.

&nbsp;

I realized that it was a tad silly for me to get ornery over a gadget that so much of the world coveted.  After all, I could disable the email deluge from my iPad.  I sweetly asked Romeo Mio to help me with that task.

&nbsp;

I then journeyed into App World.  Ooooo.  Ahhhhh.
