Top iPad 2 Tips for Work

Yes, the iPad is great for playing Angry Birds and posting Facebook updates. But Apple doesn’t command 82 percent of the tablet market just because its device is entertaining. You can use the iPad and iPad 2 to get real work done, whether it’s editing Office documents, printing, dictating notes, or syncing important data with the cloud. With the right apps, you can also get tabbed web browsing, remotely access your desktop, and even use your iPad as a second monitor for your laptop.
