Apple of my i
18 May 2010

Price: Wi-Fi versions: US$499 for 16GB, US$599 for 32GB and US$699 for 64GB


The App le iPad, launched
after months of speculation,
packs in a range of features offering
a gamut of services—songs,
video, games, Internet, e-books,
maps, contact lists, calendar,
mail, diary and more. Apple’s
design prowess ensures that the
mini-marvel’s minimalist
design is also supremely functional.
Though fans may complain
that the iPad is a close
cousin of the iPod Touch (with a larger screen), an iPad packs an
impressive list of e-books that Apple procured after extensive dialogues
with publication houses.

The Apple iPad, launched after months of speculation, packs in a range of features offering a gamut of services—songs, video, games, Internet, e-books, maps, contact lists, calendar, mail, diary and more. Apple’s design prowess ensures that the mini-marvel’s minimalist design is also supremely functional. Though fans may complain that the iPad is a close cousin of the iPod Touch (with a larger screen), an iPad packs an impressive list of e-books that Apple procured after extensive dialogues with publication houses.

It sports a multi-touch, LED, back-lit screen which flashes the keyboard when needed. Processing is handled by a 1GHz ‘A4’ chip and the gadget comes in 16GB, 32GB and 64GB memory versions. Connectivity is over Wi-Fi and/or 3G. The iPad will be available worldwide from late March or April, 2010.
