My case came last light. Oh. Yes. I don't really understand a lot of the hate for the Apple case ... I love the feel of it. Typing on it is much
much better now that it's slightly propped up and using it in bed is so much easier. I have it set up next to my monitor right now as a picture frame and it's just awesome. Wish I could change lengthen the amount of time the pictures display (3 seconds only it would see), but that's a minor gripe.
Also, curiously the NHL app is only available in the states at this time. I picked it up, and while there are some design issues, the video plays beautifully and having a 20 minute recap of Monday's game was awesome. I love that you can tap a players name and get video of his last 10 goals or big plays. Really really cool.

The UofC Microstore has (had) Pogo sketches, but apparently I bought the last one yesterday. I'm sure they'll get more in. I'm not a good artist. I might even venture to say I'm a poor artist, but I had a ton of fun with it. My favorite thing is to take a photo from my library into sketchbook pro and draw over top of it. Yes it's tracing and yes it's cheating, but my bird looks like a bird dammit.
Also of note with the UofC Microstore, I think they are getting about 60 iPads in today. Might be good if you're a student. Not sure if there's much of a student discount, but you might get $10 or $20 off. They also have displays set up that you can play with.

I wonder how many iPads are floating around Calgary right now. I also wonder if they will hit that weird critical mass that happened with the iPod - at first, nobody had one, then, it seemed like overnight there were white earbuds everywhere you looked.

I haven't seen one yet. I get plenty of stares on the train and I had one guy wave at me until I took my earbuds out.
