Apple iPad

The Apple iPad isn't an eBook reader, which makes it very hard to compare it to other eBook readers. It doesn't use e-ink technology, it's heavy, you can't read out of it in bright places, and the display will strain your eyes eventually.
Pros:
  • Amazing design
  • Most intuitive interface yet
  • Full-color screen
  • Wi-Fi and 3G wireless
  • Will do just about anything
Cons:
  • LCD display is hard to read from in bright places and will eventually strain your eyes
  • Battery lasts only ten hours
  • Heavy
  • Costs almost twice as much as the Kindle 2 or Nook
  • Additional 3G wireless fees apply (around $130

Apple iPad 3G Review

I didn't expect to enjoy using the iPad to the extent that I felt during this review. Apple may have received some criticism for calling the iPad their answer to the swell of inexpensive netbooks that have flooded the market, but having spent a substantial amount of time using one, the conclusion is...
Pros:
  • Internet everywhere (almost
  • Long battery life
  • GPS functionality
Cons:
  • 3G is an extra $130
  • Crippled video apps

Pros:
  • Huge capacitive touchscreen
  • Wi-Fi connectivity
  • Attractive design
  • App Store is filling up with apps and games
  • Compatible with iPhone apps
  • Intuitive user interface
  • Fast and responsive
  • Easy to sync and back up
Cons:
  • Awkward to hold
  • Heavy
  • No camera
  • No Flash support
  • Limited multitasking capability
  • On-screen keyboard can't compare to a physical keyboard

Apple iPad (Wi-Fi + 3G)

The Apple iPad is a revolutionary, addictive Tablet PC with Wi-Fi. Add in 3G, and it becomes even more useful, just perhaps not $130 more useful, which is the premium you'll pay for always-on connectivity. And with 3G you have to tack on another $15 to $30 a month for service.
Pros:
  • Sleek design
  • Gorgeous, sharp, accurate touch screen
  • Improved iPod, Safari browser, photo, and e-mail apps
  • A plethora of downloadable apps
  • Flexible and affordable 3G service plans
Cons:
  • Costs $130 more than the Wi-Fi-only version
  • Some applications don't work over 3G
  • AT&T is the only U.S
  • carrier with 3G support

Apple iPad review

The iPad offers a new way of viewing data for businesses. The style isn't just skin deep, and a number of applications do their bit to sell the usability of the device. The problem lies in the restrictive nature of the design and application ecosystem.

Apple iPad

There are two conclusions to be made about the Apple iPad. As a product you could buy, it's a tempting but ultimately unconvincing device. Anyone with a particular penchant for Apple, or enough money to burn and a love of shiny tech, are likely to buy into it.
