That's pretty much the only productive work you can do with it. And even that is crippled. Can you export the files you create to an external hard drive and import it on a PC? Can you hook up an external monitor that doesn't just mirror the iPad display? A real Photoshop port has been promised for years and is still not available. I would like to do some real programming that doesn't require SSH or VNC. Why can't I run virtual machines?

So, yes, you can do some creative work in this limited environment. But it's nowhere near the flexibility a real computer would offer. And that's a shame given how powerful the actual hardware is.
