Thanks, one Lichtblick. One sign of hope. Since I don't have a printer compatible with the pad, I need not print from there anyhow.But did you know before bothering you all today , I had talked with an Apple girl and she had nothing third party to offer either?
At least I feel a bit more positive toward this pad. I love how it enlarges to read, all the rest is still growing on me, emailing perhaps, when on the go, but there I have issues with the insight account which need to be addressed. As soon as I want to read an email in insight, it flips to the home page. I simply finally disengaged the account. Till further notice!!!
