iPad Tablet
There are a lot of Apple iPad reviews out there and they would pretty much tell you the same thing: Apple has once again come out with a product that will be a hit. And barring a few glitches in design, will be a sure fire success.
The Apple iPad is so fast and light, the multi-touch screen so bright and responsive, the software so easy to navigate, that it really does qualify as a new category of gadget. Some have suggested that it might make a good goof-proof computer for technophobes, the aged and the young.
Apple has consolidated your Netbook, e-reader, gaming device, photo frame, and iPod into an elegant, affordable supergadget. The Apple iPad is a Web browser for your living room, an e-book reader for the den, a movie player for the kids, a photo album, a jukebox, a gamer’s best friend, a word processor, an e-mail machine, and a YouTube junkie’s dream come true.
The iPad Tablet has a 9.7-inch (25 cm) LED backlit multi-touch display, 16, 32 and 64 gigabytes (GB) of flash memory, Bluetooth, and a 30-pin dock connector to sync with iTunes and connect wired accessories. Two models have been announced: one with 802.11 a/b/g/n Wi-Fi and one with Wi-Fi and 3G (which can connect to HSDPA cellular networks). Both models may be purchased with three different storage capacities.
The device is available in six versions that start at $499 and run as high as $829.The models vary based on storage capacity – just like iPods – and on type of Internet connectivity: Wi-Fi only, or Wi-Fi plus 3G mobile broadband for connectivity anywhere, just like a smartphone. At the cash register, support for 3G mobile broadband carries a $130 premium over Wi-Fi-only. If you purchase a middle-of-the-road 32 gigabyte iPad with Wi-Fi and 3G data connectivity, that’s $729, plus sales tax.
And the 3G designation comes with another cost: a recurring monthly data plan, sold separately through AT&T. So let’s tack on that data plan – after all, one of the cool things about this gizmo is its portability, so you’ll want to be able to go online whenever you feel like it. It comes in two varieties: a $14.99-per-month limited version and a $29.99-per-month unlimited option.
The iPad has been designed and built by a bunch of perfectionists. If you like the concept, you’ll love the machine. Apple is all about convenience and style. If you are willing to pay for style and convenience then that’s what you are willing to pay.
