Another story about iPad (finally Apple Tablet is named).

Seems it more like a soap opera story if we follow about the iPad news, from its rumor about the specifications, when the device will be launched, and what it will be named. Even when iPad has been launched two days ago, it still make a controversy among gadget lovers.

Lets check about the specifications first before we discuss it on the next post.

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.

According to Steve Jobs, iPad is created to fill the gap between smartphones, It’s great for delivering all kinds of content, the new way for you to enjoy the digital entertainments.

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.

Apple Tablet will be Revealed at the End of This Month

I can't wait for the end of the month. Yup, you know guys, it's all about that Apple Tablet rumor that everybody have heard. This is supposed to be a revolutionary notebook and will be revealed at the end of this month (on 27 January 2010 to be exact) and will be launched in March for around $1,000.

I'm sure that it's not just me who want to see how the Apple Tablet will influence the trend of notebook and change the entire computer industry this year and many years later.

If you ask me, how that powerful notebook (which is potentially named iSlate) could do that?
Well, I don't have any certain answer.



But just take a look from this point, why you will carry a 200 hardcover books or 25 newspapers with you if it is easier to carry a smart tablet which had those prints in digital form.


I think that is one of the purpose of this Apple Tablet, to redefine print, to bring print into digital form. It seen from the design, how Apple design its smart tablet to be far more suited for reading a newspaper, opening up the document, even sharing a notes than we have usually done with the original print.

And one more crazy thing, the tablet include a national WiFi subscription service.
