Bought because of deficiencies of iPad: you can't backup photos from iPad to portable harddrive without a computer. Didn't want to bring laptop. None of the widrive or other billed ipad devices provide enough storage or are anything except consumer devices to store media to watch on your iPad NOT to transfer data from iPad for storage (who wants to bring a bunch of movies to watch when you are sightseeing?????). We wanted to backup photos when travelling, especially when in areas where camera might be stolen with card in it. Worse to lose your pictures... Was able to back up cards right out of the box, but may have to resort to the Dread Instruction Manual to figure out how to get the photos to the computer at home. It's a little annoying how slowly individual pictures open when you are looking at them to see if they are any good. It's very pricey considering that one can get a full featured netbook for about the same price at a certain big box warehouse store that you can write, edit pictures on. The only reason to get this is that it weighs approx 8 oz and the netbook weighs about 3 lbs and takes up a lot more space. In this age of draconian carry on limits, that made it worthwhile to us. Also, this is so light that you don't mind carrying it around with you in your daypack, tho that kind of defeats the point of creating an archive in case of theft by the wicked.
