iPad reviews coming in fast

iPad is out!

The reviews are coming in!

This one is a rather long read, but very worth the time as it does address most everything and brings up points to be considered.

Take a breath – here it goes http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/03/apple-ipad-review/

Once you’re done the serious research, this youtube video was done for a communications class (school project) and should bring a grin, or even a chuckle to you http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vZHQ7hcdh9U while it illustrates a few short-comings of the iPad.

The iPad was announced yesterday; and it seems lackluster. 

It’s just a tablet; or as one Reviewer said, ‘it looks just like a big iPhone’.

I remember when iPhones launched, and I passed those off as ‘just another cell phone’.  Quite wrong.  They offered so much more than just a cell service, but that didn’t become apparent until people started playing with the units.  I’m hoping the same thing happens with the iPad.

Sure, it looks pretty; full LCD color and animated, Bluetooth with wi-fi or upgrade to 3G, voice over screen reader and more.  But how is it better? 

We’ll have to wait; wait until it gets into user hands and they start playing with the units and then see how the reviews and opinions change.  

How long?  60 - 90 days and we’ll start reading actual ‘hands-on’ experiences. 

Until then, I will be patient.
