Fist impressions - Ipad


OK, it’s out for real and we have to talk about it.  Steve Jobs has just shown everyone the Ipad and we have been given the technical specifications.   Let me give you my fist impressions.

It is a large Ipod touch, not even an Iphone.   It more interesting in what it is missing here is the short list:

  • No multi-task (Maybe exactable on a phone but not for a tablet)
  • No USB plug
  • No Camera
  • No GPS
  • No Flash (software)support
  • G3 – still stuck with ATT

What can I say but this is very disappointing. It does not live up to the hype and one has to question who is going to use this thing?  Even at it's low price it is far more expensive than a book reader and as a computer.... well it lacks many things.
