Apple iPad Preview

The long awaited Apple tablet has finally been revealed. Steve Jobs pulled the wraps off on January 27th in a tense morning for Apple and tech fans all over the world. Now with the specifications and facts out there it's time to preview the iPad and its potential.

First of all the originate is pretty spectacular. The front is dominated by the large 9.7" Lcd Led lit display that without a doubt will look great. Just below the screen you get the iPhone home button that allows you to go back to the starting at all times. One less pretty highlight for me are the black borders nearby the screen. They are a bit too wide for my taste, it would've been better if Apple was able to stretch the display a exiguous and take off the borders. On the top you get the sleep button that will deactivate the display. On the right side you get the volume buttons and the silence switch, arresting is that the buttons have been moved from left (iPhone) to the right. On the back you get the large black Apple logo in the middle of a big gray (aluminum?) mass. It also says iPad on the back, the number of Gbs and a few Fcc things that are required to be there I think. It's not impossible to assume that the new iPhone will highlight a similar back. The tablet is absolutely thin, in fact it's just 0.5 inch thick, that's as thick as an iPhone. Height and width measures come in at: 9.6 inches and 7.47 inch.

Now lets talk about the software of the iPad. It works very similar to an iPhone. Slide to unlock and you're in the main screen with the typical iPhone icons. You get: YouTube, mail, Safari, contacts, iPod Touchscreen and to show it to your friends.

Another app Steve Jobs showed extensively was the Safari app. The browsing contact exceeds the desktop contact because you can touch and flick straight through the pages. And unlike the iPhone you now see the full webpages.

The App store will transform this device into things Apple alone could never achieve. You can run all the iPhone applications on it in either full screen or 1:1, the latter being the actual resolution we're used to from out popular smartphone. But in addition to running the iPhone apps, the iPad will also get its own apps. Developers can create programs for it and apply its full potential. The things we've seen in the keynote, together with software from Ea, looked okay but not very impressive. In a few months some spectacular, piece of codes will come out for the tablet we're sure.

I have taken all into observation and a few things bug me as of now. Firstly does the iPad have flash support? The tablet is suppose to deliver the best browsing contact ever, but flash is a big part of the experience.

Another thing is the hardware. Apart from the case and the touchscreen things aren't finding good on paper. It has a quadcore 1ghz processor built in from Apple, a company not specialized in these chips. I have fears that this A4 processor might not be fast adequate for the absolutely arresting apps. an additional one downer is the lack of iSight camera. This thing would have been spectacular, for conferencing or instant messaging, an occasion missed there. Other hardware figures are a mystery. Like how quick is the graphics chip? And how much system memory does it have to work with?

And last but not least I'm having a hard time giving the software my two thumbs up. I think it looks to much like the iPhone software. The iPad would have been a much stronger product if the software allowed some advanced things like video editing or the capability to access and store files in finder windows (or maps for windows users).

To conclude. The iPad looks spectacular, and with a price of Eur499 it will sell absolutely well. But much like the first iPhone originate the iPad has some safe bet shortcomings. It isn't absolutely fast, has no webcam and on top of that the software is lacking prime computing features. With that said I might still get one if the contact is as spectacular, as Steve Jobs expressed while his presentation. Which knowing Apple will probably be the case.
