setup as new, or restore from backup?
#1
I have two iPads: One is a 64GB iPad 3 with about 30GB used. The other was my son's iPad Air, only 16GB. I got his when my wife upgraded and he got her old iPad. Anyway, I'm not sure whether I should setup the Air as new, or restore from backup.

I am wanting to use both iPads, but for different stuff. I do want to use several apps on both devices. Obviously, not everything on my backup will fit on the Air.

If I restore from backup, will iTunes get confused between the two? Right now it calls my iPad "rz's iPad". I was thinking of calling the Air "rz's Air". Can I do that if I restore from backup? Will it give me the option of picking and choosing what apps to load?

Conversely, if I setup as new, will it let me share apps between the two?
