Ah, that's news to me! Note that it doesn't mirror on all devices and you may need a specific app to get anything to appear on the VGA.

I would still recommend a MacBook or Air because it has a real operating system (with an accessible filesystem etc) and real connectivity, backup and authoring options.

To be that really depends on the OP's need, and from what I read he seems to be fine with presentations, web and email.

I fully agree with you regarding that the Air and Macbook Pro, are better in terms of filesystem, authoring options etc. Howeever the KeyNote app on the Ipad is fine for adding new slides, editing of slides, insterting pictures etc.

I boils down to need and bulk while out on the road for this user.

Be prepared for projectors that largely are out of calibration. Contrast and color rendition will be all over the place. I always use my own projector and laptop wherever possible so the audience can see my photos the way I want them to see them. There are few things worse than getting excited about presenting your work, only to have the images appearing remarkably different than intended (way to bright or dark or with whacked out colors).
