The hype of the I Pad has indulged the consumer world of technologists, but will it continue to rise or is there a fall in the up comming future for this devise. With all the advances this product has to offer there are also some dissapointments within that may have a negative effect on this product. Pros and cons I have come across while researching the I Pad seem to even each other out, but I think it's for the user to decide.
Pro's-
- Price around $500.
- Size, 1.5 lbs and 5 in thick, very mobile.
- 10 hr battery life with 1 month standby.
- Optional transitional keyboard. Keyboard with dockor viritual keyboard.
- Apps, runs almost 140,000 apps from App Store as well as a section in the App
Store that focuses on the I Pad.
- No contract needed for 3G, as well as 2 options available 250mb=$14.99 or
Ulimited=$29.99
- HTML5, still developing next generation of HTML. HTML5 isn't fully there yet but
it's promising.
Con's-
- Multitasking, unable to run 2 apps at one time.
- No HDMI out.
- No camera, No skype, No i Chat
- No Flash
- Battery is built in, this means if the battery goes out you are screwed.
- Said to be Unlocked, but unfortuanatly it casn't be used on T-Mobile. AT&T has
clogged networks with all the devises that are now connected to them.
With all that is said here reguarding the I Pad if I was the user I believe the con's listed might steer me away from the use of this product. Having an I Pod touch and or an I Phone I believe would equal to what this product offers. Yes it's cheap but I would want the extras that are not offered. My personal opinion is that if Apple does not fix these problems I don't see a big future for the I Pad.
