Steve,

Congratulations! I was a bit reluctant when I bought my iPad2 in early 2011, but I have not looked back. I’m not an Apple fan boy, but it was the best choice at the time, and it has held up well. Regarding Notebooks, it was one of the first programs that I bought, but it is one of the least used. It is a great design, but I have never quite got the hang of using it. There are Awesome Notes and Daily Notes to consider as well, but to be honest, I have not integrated either of them in my daily routine. Carbonfin Outliner, however, is another story. I like using it for outlines and durable checklists, and it like that it has a web verson that can sync with the iPad client. Good luck and keep us posted. I have been considering the mini as I would really like a small tablet that can be taken anywhere.
