Summary:
It’s thin, it’s light, it’s fast and it's cheaper than any predictions (around $1000). Unfortunately it is lack of camera built in.
iPad for Watching Movies
One aspect of the digital entertainment is watching movies or videos. iPad's XGA screen supports up to 1024 x 768 resolution, with 4:3 ratio. This way, you can watch HD movie with 720p pixel in iPad. If they're over 720p, then you have to transcode your videos first, before watching them. Although, if you have an HDTV, and your iPad and Apple TV are on the same WiFi network, you can watch your movies in the big screen.
Of course Apple will suggest you to buy movies directly from iTunes, that way they can make more money. But you can also download full movies into your PC, and play it on your gadget. This is a good idea, considering it's not wise to stock up your iPad with tons of HD movies, since it's only has 64 GB of hard drive spaces.
