Personally, if I needed to edit in word documents while on the go, I would just take my Windows laptop. I have not found editing in Word files on any Apple device to be very functional. I have not used a Surface, which I am assuming is the only real Windows tablet.

I’m leaning toward a Windows tablet, but honestly, that’s probably only because I don’t feel as though I can be productive on iOS. I can use my phone to interact with email, read RSS feeds, listen to podcasts, but in terms of editing files, or even reading files, I feel behind the curve. I use Dropbox. I fully accept I could be an idiot here, but I personally find it hard to review files on iOS. I want the flexibility to jump by character, word, or paragraph with the same ease I can do on a PC, but in iOS it feels as though the text of the file is in a small area where navigation is not the best experience. I’m picking on Dropbox, but honestly, I don’t find the experience much better on any of the other editing apps, including Voice Dream. Maybe I’m not finding the right one? The same is true for editing files. I think with a good Bluetooth keyboard I could make a go of it, but I don’t want to feel limited to plain text files. I need the flexibility of Word documents I can later resume full editing on my primary PC at home. So, I want someone to help me understand how they do their work on an iPad. I love the longevity of Apple products. I like the support. I like the form factor I’ve been able to find with certain keyboard cases, but I’m also very interested in producing, not just consuming. Again, I fully accept I might just not be looking at the right tools. So, that’s where you come in. Any thoughts? Ideas? Thanks in advance!
