Much regarded as the gadget of the century, Apple IPad is now in stores all across the world. Did it live up to its name or not is yet to be answered.
This gorgeous looking Ipad is more or less looking similar to the Iphone but not in its size, this one is just like a slate on hand. It is heavy with its glass and devoid of ports and buttons. Those unfamiliar with Apple’s mobile styling will wonder where the USB port and other slots are hidden and, obviously, there is no trick. The device has a single iPod-style jack at the bottom (but charges only on 10-watt USB ports so won’t charge from older pre-USB 2.0 computers), volume buttons under a screen position lock on the right side, and a headphone jack/mic on top along with a small outlet for a speaker on the bottom.
The Ipad is clearly something you have to take care of. The huge screen is just asking’ for a cracking and the rear side doesn’t fare well against whatever nitty-gritty crumbs, dust, and what-nots you might have on your table, making Apple’s $39 case (or another case of similar quality) a must. The case, incidentally, also doubles as a stand so you can use the Ipad like a little TV on your airplane tray. With a tap of a button the Ipad also doubles as a digital picture frame.
The WIFI in the Ipad is a mixed bag, sometimes it works fine and most of the times the connection is lost, the apple might be trying to patch this with any firmware update and if it cannot then update this feature in the upcoming models.
Media playback is really good in Ipad. It can play AAC and MP3 files and can also synchronize with Itunes easily.
The Ipad is actually a great tool for the photographer. With the optional SD card or camera connector, viewing photos on this is made a matter of plug and play.
Putting this Ipad for getting work done isn’t that pretty easy, initially it takes a lot of adjustment with the screen type and once you are set in you just hit the 'go'.
The bottom line is that the idea of Ipad is something truly magical but to have it in the reality shelf it needs more research and apple has to ensure it removes the flaws and get this Ipad in to a perfect shape.
