The iPad's large size is as much a hindrance as it is an advantage
The iPad can't entirely mimic many of the specialised products it seeks to replace
Abstract: Sunday morning I awoke to a choice: either wait a week for Apple to send me an iPad, or drive 602 miles round-trip to buy one today and get to work writing this review tonight. Actually there was no choice at all — I gulped a second cup of coffee and h...
Large vibrant screen, long battery life, best performance of the Apple handheld lineup.
Expensive, some may find the device hefty after some time, iPhone games are forced to be stretched to fill the screen, developers charging more for iPad vs. iPhone versions of games, cannot be played in the sun, very fingerprint “friendly.” (Apple’s decision to restrict apps built outside of Apple’s native coding language leaves some questions about developer commitment.)Overall: For the price, y

Somewhat heavy for an ereader, No earbuds included, No multitasking, but that may change in OS 4.0, No file system for managing files.
To return to my original point – the idea that the iPad is a “magical” thing in a decidedly unmagical world – I can honestly say that Apple got things right here in a way no one else has. The iPad excited us all so much that it's kind of a let-down to hol...
Abstract: The 32GB Wi-Fi enabled iPad comes in a small box that can easily be confused with a coffee table book. Inside the box is the iPad, of course, plus a few loose pages for instructions, a power brick and a USB cord. And that's it. Slim, slick, Spartan, st...
