iPad as laptop replacement
My wife's Macbook is getting pretty ancient (battery life is way down, heavy compared to modern laptops, etc.) - we're considering whether to just get her a new (or lightly used) Air, or if she could make do with an iPad and external keyboard.
She mostly uses her laptop for email, word processing, and general web-browsing.
Any tips? Thanks!

Great advice, thanks Relic. I love my iPad and use it in bed a lot, so she's jealous, but I also have a MBP for work, so I haven't felt the limitations first hand.
I was thinking that maybe Dropbox could help as a workaround for not having a native file system, but I think the list of exceptions like one might be too long. I guess the other alternative is to get some additional memory and a battery for her existing MB, then get the iPad so at least she has a functioning laptop on hand.
thanks again
