Which is more efficient for creating content for sites/ blogs? I use a compnation of videos/ pics and speech to text, should I ditch my laptop?
No! iPad is not very good for content creation. Maybe wait for the Microsoft Surface if you want a tablet, not a laptop.
An actual computer is significantly more powerful than an ipad. The only way it could even approach the flexibility of a laptop is to get all kinds of special extensions and hardware for it. Why go through the trouble?
If you have an iPad use it if you have a laptop use it. Use what works for YOU, I use my iPad 3 to post a lot of times because the the voice to text and it works pretty dam good. I even downloaded Dragon Speech that is a free app, I have not used that app yet but I do use my iPad to create content very quickly. Like I said use what you have that is how you save money.
You say tomato I say tomoto. Laptops are more powerful, but for content creation an iPad 3 would do the trick.
Laptop of course, main reason being the ability to download the media and upload it on your websites, writing is faster on a real keyboard as is the ability to multi task. As owner of both, I can see iPad as a solution only on shorter trips and in an airplane/restaurant/starbucks/home reading the news. For any real work, I use my MBP.
Yes, best of both worlds. You have the laptop for the coffe shop or travel and a real workspace with a nice display.
Yup 13" MBA with 24 or 27" IPS display and BT keyboard. You'll be able to comfortably spit out new content anywhere you go.
