Anyone using iPad as part of their workflow?

I am sort of imagining being able to download images to the iPAD and doing a 1st cut removal of un-needed images. And maybe doing so metadata work. And then transferring those images to my Computer and using my Aperture for raw and other post processing. Then maybe also use the final category and approval on the ipad after they are uploaded to the sites from my computer.

Thoughts?

The iPad's storage is so limited and the transfer of data back and forth from it make it less ideal in a high volume workflow.

I do import photos on to my iPad when I have it with me shooting (which is most of the time), but only for looking at in down time, or quick edits and posts to FB or email. Then I import off the card to my main computer when I get home and periodically clear out the iPad to free up space.

The iPad OS only shows the embedded JPG in a raw photo, so it may not be the best for deciding what to delete.

You could always use your iPad as a seat when working outdoors in damp conditions. I understand that the shiny screen is very comfortable and offers excellent insulation for one's bottom.

In that case I'd suggest getting a candyshell case from speck as they are quite tough, or perhaps gostwyck would prefer ribbed for added pleasure.
