I am in total agreement that the iPad is a fantastic travel companion especially on my business trips. With the help of apps like Kayak and tripit, I can feel at ease every time Dish asks me to fly to a different city for business. I always make time to chill out with dish remote access that I keep on my iPad since it gives me access to all my programming and content on my DVR. Although there are many apps for the iPad, the technology its self makes for a fantastic travel buddy I would not travel without.
