I would like better file system access and the ability to change default applications.
I like my ipad very much but I have to agree that content creation on the ipad is either impossible or a pain. It's mostly due to the stupid flat file system apple imposes. It's hard to understand and hard to move files on and off of.
I agree: the file system is a pain, and moving files around is a pain.
But I also cannot picture doing anything except fairly rudimentary or simple stuff on my iPad Mini. It's just too awkward trying to do anything precise. And I'd hate to have to enter a lot of text on one.
If you feel you need to use it with a Bluetooth keyboard, you might as well be using your computer. But I'm not frustrated by the fact that it isn't a substitute for my laptop or desktop Macs. I love having it along as I travel about NYC. I use the camera far more than I expected that I would, and I have found that capability useful for work purposes as well as entertainment. I have a nice little text editor on it (Textastic) that I use to work on CSS and HTML. Textastic syncs nicely with Dropbox. And of course I do a lot of reading on it. I generally don't leave home without it.
