The meet is heading in to the awards portion of the show. I’ve been checking Facebook feeds, reading USA Today, and the NY Times with their iPad apps and checking some email in between each team. Wi-Fi has been on the entire time and my battery is now at 92%.

iPad Battery Test: Status Update
I was just talking two a few moms and dads about my iPad. Everyboby agrees that it is super cool. I was showing everyone the iBooks apps, movies and TV shows, my apps, and the App Store. Maps works great and I’m glad I got here early because I-95 northbound is getting busy.
My battery just dropped down to 98%.

iPad: A Real Life Test
This morning my girls, wife, and I are heading off to a cheerleading competition and my iPad will be coming along for the ride.I plan on putting my iPad through a real life performance test. We’ll be inside today, so sunlight won’t be a problem as I reported yesterday at t-ball on my spf360 Twitter account.
I plan to have Wi-Fi on, if there is coverage, catching up on the day’s news in the WSJ and NY Times Editor’s Choice apps. Perhaps I’ll play a few games of Firemint’s Flight Control HD. Also on the agenda is reading some pages in iBooks and watching some TV shows.
So how well will the iPad’s battery hold up? I’m not sure but we are going to find out together. I’ll be posting updates on my spf360 Twitter account throughout the morning with battery status updates.
