First post with the iPad

I bought an iPad to see if this a good device to manage the blog while I am abroad. At a first glance and after 10 minutes of usage, i can say that the screen is wonderful and the keyboard is very easy to use in landscape mode. I already saw a problem with word press as this is impossible to use the HTML visual editor. I have to use the HTML editor otherwise this is impossible to enter any text.

That said, there are also some other limitations. As you probably noticed, there is no picture attached to that article. The reason is that I haven’t found yet an application which could be used to work on pictures.
Another limitation is that Safari doesn’t allow multi tab navigation, you have to switch from one instance to another. This is very annoying in my point of view.

Otherwise, it seems like a good device to update the blog from time to time but I don’t think I will write very long articles.

What’s your experience with the iPad? Did you try to use it from professional purposes?

PS: I finally found a way to upload pictures but it requires uploading the image manually from the iPad to the blog via FTP. Not that easy, isn’t it?

PS2: There is also an iPad app for WordPress which seems very easy to use. I’ll give you more feedback when I would have spend more time using it.
