The iPad is an elegant example of great design. It is thin, but it is sturdy. It is useful in many ways, but it is simple in its design with a minimal numbers of controls. The screen is framed by a one-inch black border. If you hold the iPad vertically, you can see the Home button on the bottom. The button will be familiar to iPhone and iPod touch users. Videos look excellent on the iPad. It supports H.264 up to 720p at 30 frames per second and MPEG-4. There is a special application for viewing YouTube videos. You may also download applications for viewing certain television programms. Watching ABC television shows is a great experience on the iPad.
The front part of the iPad looks like a giant iPod touch, while the back is a classy brushed aluminum rather than the shiny back of the iPod touch. The top of the iPad has one single button, which is an on/off or sleep/wake slider switch on the left. On the right you see the standard headphone jack. Although the much cheaper iPod touch comes with headphones, they are not included with the iPad. The hole for the microphone is next to the headphone jack. The right side of the iPad holds the iPad’s only other controls. On the right is a useful screen rotation lock, which keeps the screen from rotating when you do not want it to, like when you are lying in bed. Next to the rotation lock is the up/down volume rocker.
iPad Applications Almost all of Apple 150,000 current applications work on the iPad. As s result, there is no lack of content for the iPad. Ordinary iPhone applications appear in a small box on the iPad screen. Many of the iPhone applications are being customized to run on the iPad, and special iPad only applications are just starting to appear. These applications are especially appealing and it seems that these applications are what will make the iPad a success. Games that take full advantage of the iPad are remarkable.
Apple made several of their Mac programs available for the iPad. Keynote, Pages, and Numbers are available for USD 9.99 each. The presentations, word processing documents, and spread sheets that you create with these programs can be transferred to your computer using iTunes and they can be converted to Microsoft PowerPoint, Word, and Excel format.
