Hey there guys,

Today i have chosen to write a nice simple ‘review’ or ‘my thoughts’ on the iPad. First thing’s first i will write this in different sections analysing every aspect of this interesting yet amazing product.

1- The Name: There have been so many rumours about calling it the Apple Tablet but Apple did drop a bombshell by calling it iPad! Very similar name to a woman’s hygiene product  is it not ? I mean they could have chosen something a little more original like the iBook or iTouch but for reasons that we all know people call the iPod Touch the iTouch most of the time so that name has been discarded. iPad does represent that fact that it is pad-like but it adds more laughs to the discussions around it. Windows fans have used this iPad in insulting and utilising it to be able to show how apple can be in superior but they still failed.

2-The Design: The iPad has an absolutely amazing and beautiful sleek appearance and feel from the look of the ads and Steve Jobs. Though it’s basically an enlarged ipod touch, but i still love this wideness and it gives you a sense of largeness. Most people enjoy a sense of largeness and space to feel comfortable instead of a tight cramped up space just like on the iPod Touch where the keyboard is nicely designed but stacked up together unlike on the iPad  the keyboard has the letters nicely spaced and easy to tap.

3-The Software: The iPad has a pretty basic SDK i believe and it isn’t to different to the iphone/ipod touch SDK. I’ll get some more information soon.

4-The Apps: Same as the iPod Touch, it has an extremely wide database of apps including the all new iBook store which will be very interesting to look at.

MORE TO COME.

Thanks,

Mac Maestro
