Apple iPad is Impressive
Apple is attempting to turn tablet into mainstay in our homes; and judging from the launch of the Apple iPad, they just might succeed.
While many people already rely on the internet for communication and staying in touch, the one thing that makes it so hard to combine the internet with daily life is the difficulty of picking it up when you are busy and the difficulty of putting it down when you have time.
It is common to access 3G on a mobile phone, share and upload a couple of pictures then post a quick message or two. But it is still a very trimmed down version of a full internet experience that only a net book or a desktop computer can bring. On the other hand, booting up a computer takes ages and having to leave the computer seat once you are in is very difficult (one of the best ways to lose track of time really).
The Apple iPad is easy to pick up when needed and easy to put down when you are done; literally.
The device is meant to be used as is, when the need arises. This means that if you just want peruse that Facebook album of yours, then go right ahead. When you are done, just put down the device. The iPad is meant for everyday use. The only real concern now is how you will manage to keep the tablet from falling off the table.
Apple crammed in some hefty hardware on this gizmo. A 9.7 inch touch screen display gives you a resolution of 1024 x 786 pixels (equivalent to a decent net book screen). It also has a 1GHz processor for handling browsing, games and apps.
