Thanks Robster
Loving the iPad. Don't have the store here in oz yet. But for web surfing and email it is awesome. Great size, weight, and feel. Photos are fantastic as are movies and tv shows. Battery life is unbelievable. This baby is going to be great to travel with and with 64 GB I will be able to load plenty of stuff for the plane etc

Very nice shots! I love me some iPad as much as Panerai! You are right about the battery life. Did they just acquire some alien tech? I use it all the time and barely have to charge it after like 3 days!

Great photos Dalip. I put my brown OEM on my 104 last week and have been wearing it this weekend. It's a great combo and a nice change from the black OEM that came with mine. I just love the way that a quick strap change makes me feel like I have a new watch. Enjoy!!

It really is. I love the OEMs and the black and the brown really do the job in presenting an alternative look and feel

Excellent photos of a great watch AND a great iPad! I will probably be getting an iPad sometime next year. I just got the iPhone, and my G5 desktop Mac needs an upgrade to an Intel Mac.

I noticed that you have, and used, a Canon IXUS 120 IS to take your excellent photos. I have one as well (called the Canon SD940 IS here in the US). Mine is silver, and my wife's is blue. They are marvelous!!!

I also have a Canon SX20 IS for special occasions. Photos of these great cameras below:

Canon SD940 IS


Canon SX20 IS



Again, congrats on some marvelous photos, and special congrats on the iPad. I know you are enjoying the custom TRF icon on it (when you can get it in focus - LOL!!!).

Ok ok ok......HOW did you know what camera I used AllanI can't see it in the reflection of any.....was it because of a recently posted photo of me in another thread...I am holding it..but that would take some zoom.....

you are of course spot on! My wife also has a blue...I have the black..and they are great...

The iPad is awesome..am really enjoying it.....and I love the "out of focus" TRF icon

Thanks so much for your kind words......

BUT....I am seriously aching to know just how you knew...it's probably staring me in the face....but way to confuse me

LOL! I had a feeling you would ask me that, Dalip!

Digital cameras normally capture EXIF data (Exchangeable Image File Format - also known as metadata), and embed it in the graphic file. Even if you resize or alter it in a graphic program that supports EXIF data (Photoshop is a good example), that data is retained. If the person viewing the graphic has an application that can read and display the EXIF info, then you will see all of the metadata about that photo.

Here is the EXIF data embedded in one of the photos you posted:
