I currently have an Ipad2, which I use for games/netflix/work email/various simple apps. I use logmein to my office PC, but it can be a bear sometimes with refresh rates, also the lack of flash is irritating at times.

I bought a 13 ultimate recently, but realize I'd probably be better off with a 11" form factor. That being said, the ipad2 and MBA would be sharing too many benefits to warrant keeping both.

I need a larger screen for my office, for various bring home office work.

Anyone here face the same issue? Either I return the 13 MBA and get an 11 and wait for an ACD, or I just get a 27 imac and use the ipad.

Any suggestions?

I'm in the same boat.
I have a MBP and an iPad, I'm planning on selling the MBP for an iMac and keeping the iPad.

I then will probably get a MBA too if I decide I still want a laptop. If I do that, I'll still keep the iPad though. Even though it feels like they share too much, they each serve their purpose with the iPad primarily for consumption and play and the MBA for mobile productivity.

i was thinking about getting the ACD but the Imac 21.5" is only $100 more after the student discount. also i already external monitors to hook up my mba too, which would be the economical/responsible thing to do :rolleyes:.
