After weeks, months, YEARS of tech anticipation, Apple has officially announced the latest member of their family- the iPad. Here’s what you need to know in short.
In between a smart phone and a laptop the iPad will be a great tool for email and web browsing, ebooks, watching video and gaming (a market which Apple is trying to get more into). With touch screen capabilities, a virtual keyboard and of course apps - think of it like a larger iPod Touch or iPhone interface.
Under 2lbs, just a half inch thick and sporting a 10 inch screen, the iPad will start at $499 and go up to $699 depending on storage size. This is good news considering most sources anticipated it would run at around $1000.
The other thing that I love is the ability to purchase the iPad with the AT&T 3G built in ($130 more a piece).
Desirable? Absolutely. Look for them in about 60 days.
