Wanted to see what all the hype was about and how useful this would be for mobile computing needs of internet access (great), method to carry around fairly massive amount of documents for reference purposes (jury still out on this one) and for general sync up between this and my home PC. I invest major dollars to have very fast and very competent computer technology and my livelyhood really relys on this. So far, I am not real happy the sync up between the Apple OS and Windows OS....could blame either one for this so don't mean to stick that on the IPAD...just not as efficient as I would like at this point. Also found out in subsequent research on how to use this device that there are a number of items on the horizon which will make this a 1st generation very quickly with the 2nd gen touted (already) to include a lot of new features. Overall this works very similaryly to the other tablets that are out on the market like the Viewsonic one. Unit tethers very well to my Verizon smart phone mobile WIFI for internet access and seemed to be very device compatible in that respect. The port where the power supply and USB combination enters into is fairly flimsy and looks like it could break off pretty easily...other than that the quality looks to be average to above average. Will keep this for a while and see how it works out. Movie viewing is not really great since the whole screen is not used...you can do Google search to get a better idea of what others have to say about that.Vollständige Rezension lesen
Thing feels fast The iPad is affordable. There were tradeoffs. It only has 256 MB of RAM. The App Store is the killer app. The iPad is meant for anything. When you first take it out, it wants to be plugged into your Mac or PC. Feels retrograde. The wallpaper shows streaking meteors [that] look like scratches. Curious. It’s not too hard to type with in landscape orientation. In vertical orientation, I using my thumbs. I type faster on my iPhone. I have been using an Apple Bluetooth keyboard. For serious writing, you're going to want one. The iPad display is wonderful. Pixel resolution isn’t all that dense. The iPad is so good as a web reader. One severe problem in Safari for iPad: memory crapping out. I wrote the first draft of this piece on my iPad using Pages. It’s easily worth $10. Document syncing between Mac and iPad: It’s a mess. I predicted it’d be crummy to run non-iPad-optimized iPhone apps on the iPad and I was right. iBooks’ page-turning animation is delightful. Kindle’s advantage is library size.Vollständige Rezension lesen
I took the plunge and purchased from the US. I couldn't wait for Apple to decide when they are going to launch in the UK. I don't regret it. The iPad hardware is amazing: light, slimline and with a high quality screen. Make sure you purchase a case and screen protector though to lengthen the life of your iPad (particularly if you have kids like I do). The iPad software is pretty much as expected if you have an iPhone or iPod Touch as I do. That is the beauty of this - switch it on and bang . . . you're immediately on the web or writing emails or reading documents (great for the train journey to meetings) or listening to music or watching a film (Avatar looks great) or playing a game or showing your photos to relatives etc. The ehnanced screen size makes all the difference to me. I can do ebay, online grocery shopping and much more that I couldn't do on the iPod. Some of the iPad apps (like Scrabble) are awesome. All the iPod Touch apps I transferred across work well - just a slight degradation in resolution. If you want your kids to do some education, there are some great learning apps - some with handwriting recognition so it makes learning more fun. The bigger screen also accommodates a decent keyboard - fine for writing emails, To Dos etc. Not designed for writing War & Peace. The downsides? Well, no Flash support means I can't watch some TV / video (such as 4OD, BBC iPlayer). However, I understand a BBC iPlayer app will be released soon like the one we use on our Nintendo Wii? Also, since document viewing is so good, a USB drive would be a better way to upload my PDFs and Powerpoint docs but we all know about Apple's closed architecture. In summary - as long as you see this device as a really quick and fun way to consume content (not designed for creating it), then you'll love this. It does not replace my laptop (e.g. no multi tasking) or my iPod Touch (too big for my pocket) but it is the nearest thing to the best of all worlds. What it does, it does very well.Vollständige Rezension lesen
The iPad is a great device for the on the go business traveler. It provides the user with all the computing power needed for multiple email accounts, presentations, calendar, and contact info. You have all your music and your own videos and photos for passing those long flights. A great plus for the air traveler is, the iPad is not treated like your laptop by TSA screeners. No sending it through Xray separately. For todays pilots, this is the tool for you. It provides a great multi function display with apps for all the Jeppson charts, real time weather information, flight planning and filling, and moving map GPS. Only drawback is that apple is not yet allowing Adobe Flash play yet, so attachments requiring flash can not be viewed. Now that apple has introduced the iPad 2 there should be many iPad 1's on the market. As long as you don't need a camera the iPad 1 will provide you with all the portable computing power you'll need in a very light weight device.Vollständige Rezension lesen
I do not have a laptop. This thing works so great to do nearly everything I need it to do. It's nice because it's very light and battery life is fantastic. I tether to my sprint phone on the go and since I jail broke it and have an android phone I even can tether gps via Bluetooth. I'm typing this review on my iPad right now with the virtual keyboard which takes some getting used to but it's actually pretty useful. I am a pilot and cannot wait to use it in flight. So far it has worked wonderfully for everything. I get to test it out in fir very soon. I bought it for flying and the fore flight app is going to be well worth the subscription. Soon I will get a mouse to go with the keyboard to make editing word documents easier. Touch editing word documents on a bumpy bus ride was quite a task but should come easier with the google docs function now coming out. I only wish it were more compatible with some certain media files. Overall I say it's a great buy. The encase case from best buy is also a nice accessory.Vollständige Rezension lesen
