I could not wrap my head around where the ipad fits in our digital world. Of course it fits nicely between the Macbook & the iphone but do you need one??? No, definitely not if you own a Macbook. Does it replace a Macbook??? No it does not but… and I do mean a loud BUT!!! You can use this device for 80% of your daily computing chores like browsing, email, twittering, facebooking, writing, spreadsheeting, reading, gaming (i don’t game) etc…. For example- I don’t think I will ever carry my 17″ again unless I am shooting. If it had USB and could handle file transfers my 17 would become a permanent desktop. In fact I was about to downgrade to a 15″ but don’t need to any longer… For travel, meetings & presentations I foresee myself on the ipad 100% and wow does it fit nicely in my Tumi backpack!!!

Apple commerce juggernaut!!! Pay, Pay, Pay…. However, well worth the fees for the quality of products!!!

Do I love it??? Yes!!!! Can I live without it?? NO!!!!

Got the call Friday morning at 3am that I was being summoned to help out my boys Bla & Marco Mall of the Florida Film House & Nappy Boy camp to shoot a last minute Music Video for Detail, Travis McCoy, T-Pain and the one & only Lil’ Wayne. We had less than a day to come up with concept, design, location, casting, etc… We rocked it and Lil’ Wayne was on Fire!!! We may have something hot on our hands!!! Track has an organic acoustic guitar with a catchy skater boy theme and hook. I will post the edit and some BTS as soon as I am allowed!!!

Bla, Marco, Detail & Prio
