I am going on holiday to France this autumn in order to visit some of the more famous vineyards there. In preparation for this trip I have set up global data roaming for my iPad. This will mean that if I am to notice a new vineyard on my trip that I will be able to use my iPad to download information about it straight away. I am hoping that by using this method I will be able to stumble upon many places that are not on the mainstream vineyard touring circuit; I expect to identify some very interesting wines to try using this method.

Of course the iPad will enable me to avoid some of the smaller vineyards that are not on the tourist circuit because they do not make good wine. I am really looking forward to being able to make use of my data plan on my trip as I seriously think that it will revolutionize my vacation.
