Excellent suggestion. I did not realize adding documents to Favorites made
them off-line accessible to an iDevice.--Joe

Favourite any Dropbox file in the app you are using to have a local version
available when you are offline.

Joe,

 

To do the things you are wanting, you will need a device with a cellular
radio which means either an iPhone, or iPad with cellular access.
Personally, I think the Mini is a great choice but from what you are saying,
it sounds to me like the iPhone 5 is the way to go for you.  I have an
iPhone 4s and an iPad Mini with WiFi only so it's kind of the best of both
worlds for me without having to spring for an additional data plan.

 

 

Best,

Hello,

 

So I'm not really an iPad hater. Still, made you think, didn't it?

 

Anyway, I got an iPad 4th gen as a surprise. Honestly, I don't get it. It's
the oversized iPhone I feared. The single best feature I can point to is the
four-finger swipe to switch between apps. Otherwise, without 3G access, I
can't access Dropbox outside of wireless range. Only one of my text editors
will give me some access to the Dropbox file structure, but overall this
doesn't work as the commuter tool I was hoping for.

 

Where am I going wrong? Are there apps that let you read Dropbox files
outside of wireless range, or is 3G really needed to make this a viable
commuter device? I'm thinking I'd be better off upgrading to the iPhone 5
for the faster processor and 4G connections, but before selling off this
unit, I want to make sure I'm giving it a fair shake. Right now it just
feels like one big ass screen that feels more awkward than useful. Even the
greater web page range is not enough to make me admire the extra screen real
estate.

 

Thanks in advance for your thoughts,

 

Joe
