However, i read earlier in this thread that transferring info from windows to an ipad was difficult, it certainly sounded hard to me.
I assume iTunes is all about music which I won't be using. I do need access to word docs, Outlook and travel apps, download photos - basic stuff.
iTunes is the software hub used to connect your ipad to your PC/Mac. You don't have to use it often unless you want to transfer pics/music/apps etc which can be a lot when you first you get the ipad.
If you have basic skills I would strongly suggest the ipad - it just works.
Don't we all loathe iTunes?
A 3G iPad will allow you to bypass iTunes for much of what you want. You can shop on the app store and download apps direct. iTunes is good to help manage the device - music, movies, apps, photos and so forth - but not mandatory.

Not at all. You download the itunes software to your PC, plug in your device, and itunes will see it and you are good to go.
Simon, as an Ipad expert, Mr Pushka has this weird thing happening on his ipad. Even our expert 23 year old son can't work out why it happens. But when he sends a text from his iphone, it appears on the ipad. Which might get a bit tricky sometimes. But it doesn't always happen, just randomly. Have you ever heard of this?
Check to see if the recipients of the messages are using iPhones. The messages will usually be coloured blue not green. That means it may be using 3G/wifi for messaging and not SMS. Just a thought, I may be incorrect.Not at all. You download the itunes software to your PC, plug in your device, and itunes will see it and you are good to go.
