If you use 3G your data plan will go very fast, so if you are in a Wi-Fi scenario just buy a good light laptop for production. Jeff’s comment is correct but again you are still trying to access another machine and using the iPad to screen share. I can run 3Dmax, REVIT, AutoCAD or any other production tool, but you are not going to produce from an iPad as of yet, not until it’s computing power increases. Not the way you need to produce in an architecture firm. I’ve tested this and I use cloud connect if you are curious.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>I thought it was cool in the beginning, but you know how much I use it now.
