Apple has just unveiled it’s long anticipated tablet device, named the iPad. iPads will start shipping in about 60 days. Here’s the rundown on it:
- 1/2″ thick
- a featherweight 1.5lbs
- 9.7″ IPS display
- full multitouch touch-screen
- Comes in 3 storage sizes: 16GB ($499), 32GB ($599) and 64GB ($699)
- WiFi 802.11n & Bluetooth 2.1+EDR. Some models will have 3G. Monthly data contracts available with AT&T. 3G models cost $130 more than WiFi-only models.
- 10 hrs battery life, 1 month in standby
- view in any direction – landscape or portrait and from any side.
The iPad is geared to be a Web surfing and multimedia device, so it can handle photos, iTunes, movies, TV, e-mail, and even video games. There is on-screen soft keyboard for those apps that need it. Unfortunately, like the iPhone, there is no Adobe Flash.
The iPad can run any app that runs on the iPhone and Apple has also updated the iPhone SDK so that apps can be developed for this sized display. Another key feature is the iBooks app that works with the newly created iBook Store, although Apple only has agreements with 5 publishers so far.
