I spend most of my time on A. I do tons of research and find its just easier to do it with a keyboard-connected device.

Caty,

I find myself more and more connected. So the answer to the question is in direct proportion to where I spend my time.

When I'm in the office, I'm accessing socnets on my desktop. When I'm at home or at a hotel/conference, I'm primarily on my iPad.

When I'm in transit, I'm on my Smartphone (DROID if you're interested) :)

Do you love your droid?? :) Good to know that you're on the iPad a lot when you travel... that's one of the formats that I'm most curious about!

I love my family and friends. :) I'm happy with the Droid and don't intend to switch anytime soon.

My favorite Twitter client for the iPad is Echofon. I also use Pulse News and Flipboard as news/content aggregators. I've all but eliminated the laptop from my current arsenal (which is ironic since just 3 years ago, it was my sole device for about a decade)
