I can see that checking your email would be fine on a tablet or phone, but composing an email must be something of a nightmare?

That's what I thought. However, I like the keyboard on my iPad. For 5 line emails, it is absolutely fine for me.

I check my email on my phone. For most of the emails I send, the phone is also sufficient. If I need to send something longer than this comment, I will switch to my MacBook Air. Honestly, it's no more of a hassle than pulling out the iPad and it has a keyboard.

For me it works in a pinch. But if I did any serious typing on the iPad, I'd get a keyboard case for it.
