The day has arrived for the official delivery of the new Apple iPad. There has been a lot of talk in various directions about the iPad. I've read a number of articles where people are for it and think its the greatest thing since sliced bread. But, then there are the 'HATERS' who can't seem to find anything good to say about it.
The most interesting thing i've noticed is that there is no middle ground. Its either you love it or hate it.
Well i think its 'AWESOME' and I LOVE ITlove it. I know it might be easy to say things like it doesn't have a camera or this or that. But, how bout we focus on the positive things and go from there. Its easy to be negative and I'm sorry but i like to be positive about things in life first, then go from there.
So some of the reasons why I Love the new Apple iPad:
1. It's another amazing product by Apple. Face it folks, Apple is on the cutting edge of technology and design. They have produced a number of things that have definitely changed the way we live today for the better. In the most recent years we have been blessed with the iPhone and iPod Touch devices.
2. Change is a good thing. The new iPad is not like anything we have seen before. Yes, I've heard people comment on it being an iPhone on Steroids. But, I have to humbly disagree. I think it's a step into a new direction at small, light and amazing portable technology. This new step is the perfect developing ground for so many new innovate ways of doing things.
Imagine the uses in a hospital for taking notes and dictations. A doctor can speak his diagnosis into the unit and with some software it translates the doctors words into text and also attaches it to one file in a medical data base. Then in the future if there is any question of what was written it can easily be seen without any mis interpretation. This is one example of many different areas where the iPad can take us to the next level and beyond.
3. The Apple iPad is the beginning of a new way of how we see light, portable and useful technology. It is more then just a colorful Kindle. Its the start of introducing to us a more simpler way of working with technology. One of the reasons for the popularity of the iPhone/iPod Touch units is because anyone can pick it up and use it without too much thought or manual reading required.
4. Tons of Apps already available rite now. The Apple iPad has over 1,300 approved appz on the day of its release. Also, don't forget the 150,000 appz it can use that are available for the iPhone/iPod Touch too. There are more appz for this unit then any other portable device. With one big thing, there are a ton of them that are FREE that work great. No one else can even come close to saying this.
5. This unit could be a great learning tool for kids. Today kids are always complaining about how heavy their book bags are with all those big, clunky, heavy books they need to haul around for class everyday. Now, they don't need to worry about hurting their backs because on this platform we can put all those books in one small, compact easy to carry place.
6. Appeal for groups of all ages. When you see this device there is something so pleasant and appealing about it. Its not to big and clunky like so many other portable units on the market today. Also, you don't need a mouse to use it.
On this past Wednesday, there was a show on ABC called "Modern Family" where they had the unit as part of the story. One of the most amazing things that i saw was a Birthday Cake app. The woman held up the iPad as the virtual candles flickered then as the guy blew on the touch surface the candles moved like someone was blowing them out and wala they were blown out. The next thing you see is the smoldering candles just like they normally would. I love this app.
7. Apple has always been the leader in bringing new ideas and ways of using technology to the public. The one thing Apple is known for is walking to the beat of its own drum. I can remember many times where when they took the leap forward, it wasn't a step, but a great big Jump into the new way of doing things and it was AWESOME.
8. If you loved the iPhone/iPod Touch you will love the iPad because its the next stage of evolution in the world of technology. Yes, I know it doesn't have a camera but so what. There are hundreds of other great features that are currently available now. So you can wait and be a closet iPad fan or step up to the plate and enjoy what we have today.
So these were just a few of my feelings on this amazing new technology from Apple.
Our lives have forever been changed by Apple and Steve Jobs, and i for one want to say Thank You to all the people at Apple and to Steve Jobs for giving us some great goodies. I am proud to be a loyal supporter of amazing advanced technology from Apple.
