Yes… it’s true…
Why do have these ipises (cockroach) in our beloved world? What is their soul purpose in this world? Can they revive dead plants in the world? Do they make end world hunger….!? (Oh God, no) are they gonna serve as the balance of the equilibrium? are they cool? if they were a pokemon will you catch them?
Well they do have a purpose
THAT IS TO PISS US OFF thats why they are called iPISS!!!
This is just disturbing
Who is the genius that thought of this design?
Me like

So the “magical” iPad has been introduced by the big mansanas Apple last Wednesday January 27, 2010 and as a mobile device company they were putting in a third category in between a smart phone and a laptop and it should be better for browsing the web doing email and stuff like that.
Jobs stated that the third category we thought was a Netbook but he said it was just a laptop that wasn’t better at anything, it’s just a smaller laptop which runs on small quality displays, runs slow and is cheaper.
Now apple shows the iPad which they say its better at browsing the web, doing email and all that stuff.
Some People say that its just a bigger iPod touch / iPhone
Well it does look like an iPod touch but bigger screen size, but comparing to the iPhone? well it does got a sim tray for 3G but it isn’t a Phone.

No Flash
Ok… so much for being better at browsing the web, well apple has some reason for this, they wanted the iPad to be crash free and with no hiccups so as you probably know flash is a heavy plug-in that eats alot of memory. The bigger the content of the flash plug-in the more it can make the hardware slow. As for flash vidsdevelopers are turning their flash vids to html 5 vids this means that instead of using flash for web videos they will use an HTML tags for video (if you don’t know what the hell I’m talking about it just means its not gonna be flash for video). Another alternative is for example New York Times they made an app for the iPad which looks like a webpage which of course has their content and video so… yeah. But migrating from flash to html 5 for videos its good.

But what about flash games?
When playing flash games what input devices do you use? a keyboard and mouse right? what does the input device on an iPad have? your fingers. so its not gonna work. again flash games like dinner dash or facebook poker are now available on the app store.

Who needs flash games on the iPad anyway?
Ok I like what apple has done here, all your apps from your iPod touch or iPhone are compatible on the iPad and you can go full size! so what about games? think about it.
No multi-tasking
Ok what do you multi-task on a netbook? Listening to music while browsing the web and ym? well it can do those in the iPad.
No Camera
Yeah.. that sucks, maybe in the next gen they would have one only in the front I think.

Keyboard
I can’t say much because i haven’t got a hands on the keyboard, I just imagine its hard not to look at what you are typing with out looking at the keyboard but I think i could get used to it.

Accessories
Well I totally like only one accessory they offer and its the leather. Pictures explain.
USB ports
Since its running iPhone OS there is no explorer to browse the files so any file you input comes from the cloud (internet) or from another computer (think of it as you have a gun and you can get more ammo from the bullet shop, or something like that). and it should be compatible with iPad. music, videos, contacts, podcasts, bookmarks, etc you have will be sourced at iTunes.


Maps
Maps looks different on the iPad version and it has street view. too bad we don’t have much street view here :(
iPod
No, it can’t become the iPod replacement, it’s just 10 hours battery life and iPod touch is best suited for that.

iWork
Ok I like the idea and the price for $9.99 (>P500). This is what people I see most carrying a netbook do, others just browsing and youtube. iWork for iPad is great I liked it the spreadsheet app, word processing app, the keynote app they are all great and they are microsoft office compatible, they have implemented the multi-touch greatly.
Whats sad is i can’t put it in a flash drive directly. If your gonna give this to someone you have to send it through email or extract it from a computer.
In presenting a presentation or keynote, apple says that you can hook it up into a projector (if you have one or if its compatible) but if I were in the situation and its just a small group presentation i would go present it right there. too small? you can pinch to zoom. and the presentation size is nearly the same as a modern laptop (most presenters use 4:3 even though they have 16:10 or 16:9 aspect ratio) and the extra inches are just spaces on the left and right.
In word processing and using a touch keyboard while typing a novel, its gonna be a pain so they have the keyboard dock accessory. It cost another kaching kachingof course. If you are comfortable with the touch keyboard I suggest getting the leather.

Price
$499 for wifi only models + $135 for + 3G. Do i need the 3G when im in a wifi hot spot? will i pop this thing out in public and wait for snatchers to get a hold of the iPad? $499 is enough 16 gb is enough for me.
In conclusion
iPad has it’s positives and negatives if you look at it in different angles but I must say does fit in the in between a smart phone and laptop.
Will I get it?
I will get it if I need non-heavy computing. Like if I don’t need the processing power of a laptop, I need a big screen but is light on my travel, something i can pop out with a big screen when im in a wifi hot spot. Create blog posts with big content while lounging.
