My SUPER IPOD TOUCH

Yes, I admit it. I was also one of those who already have a IPAD, shortly after the first units were sold in the US. I've cleared one of the more affordable, first eBay sale, and a few days later the package arrived sent from a private seller. Of course, I was curious. The device, a IPAD 16GB Wifi without UMTS was brand new and boxed. Yes, it was exciting to unwrap it to turn. Something I had never in his hand. And it is true indeed: Chill the IPAD is a little harder than we initially expected. The facts, however, in my view are the: Incredibly solid manufactured a piece of high-quality technology and an attractive design that can beat the competition difficult. A super iPod Touch with extended capabilities! And who knows the iPod Touch and estimates knows the iPod touch is a "Mini PC universe" pocket-sized. I'll be honest and say openly how it me was in the first days. I was unsure. Tried rum. Was amazed at how quickly booted up the IPAD. Marveled sharply over the very clear and bright display, displaying crisp, extremely reader-friendly fonts.

After I had the iPad via iTunes enabled, came the first shock to me. About the iPad itself did not succeed to get into the app store, and load new apps. A colleague who knows well with apple, had the answer: The store had not yet been released in this country. In fact, I practiced some patience, the day came, and the store has been unlocked, now everything went.

Yes, it is true that at the beginning there were not many apps that really take advantage of the advanced capabilities of iPad and ausreizen. But there were some who took me by surprise. About Pocket Pond. Fish in a pond. When you touch the touch screen, it is as if one hits the water, the fish swim away. Amazing graphics. The iPad is a toy? Sure, of course. But what one.

I invited my almost daily after work down apps. Mostly free, it rejected again, if they were of little use to me. The apps that are designed for iPhone and iPod, can be enlarged by clicking, but then not fill the entire screen, and also act somewhat pixilated compared to the original iPad Apps.

I got my magazines apps. Wonderful to read, World Online, Stern, Bunte, etc. The same applies to the ebook apps. It's just fun, because the appearance of fonts is very clear and appealing. Much nicer than on the PC screen.

Yes, it is. Subjectively, you have felt with the IPAD really a piece of Internet
in the hand. You understand it with your fingers, you stroke the pages, you wischst over the smooth glass of the IPAD Sreen, and that makes a difference. Immediately. Without keys. Without joysticks. This is the real thing, so the other, the difference. I found myself, as I once, after I had the iPad for about 2 weeks in use, summed up at my normal notebook to the screen, and wondered why the does not react. The iPad changed my relationship to PC screens. Is that new? To me already.

Well, now I have something to say about the negative reviews. Some people buy something new like the iPad. Everywhere in the newspapers you can read it: New Device Type. Instead of taking time to explore the new part, instead of patience to practice, and only times to gain experience, is immediately bitched. (My PC can do more, my netbook is only half etc., too little programs, boring etc) These reactions testify mE often only of impatience and lack of foresight. Please all, and do it now.

I say: Everything is new, needs only once time. Let time go by a year, then we talk again us. What do you think how many good new programs will be developed by then! What do you mean, what developments will be gone by then. One can only imagine today.

I had about a week the impression: This IPAD I sell again. Now ichs tried a few weeks, OK, let him then but to try the next.

But then something strange happened. I invited vacation photos on the iPad. The neighbors asked, well, what was it like on vacation, I went over to them, with the iPad, and we leafed through the images. They look beautiful and very clear on the screen. Of course, it would have gone well with the notebook. But so handy? So elegant? Impressive? Of course not. So: The practical applications of the iPad for daily life not open up Zack Zack, but gradually. From day to day you make new experiences. So a shoe out of it.

In the morning a quick trip to the e-mails look to throw without the PC. IPad take
I easily into the kitchen and let my wife read an important message,
shortly before breakfast. With the notebook I did not do that.

After my "critical" week was quickly clear: The thing I'll remember. The IPAD is a piece of living and culture. A simplified access to the Internet, far from perfect, but it has incredible potential. He is an ebook reader, magazines reader, an audio book store, Musispeicher, a photo album, a video memory, a weather station, a mail machine, and so on.

I'm excited to see what else will be out of it. I did not regret it, the thing
to have bought. I'm not an Apple disciple. I'm just someone who likes it when a device services and provides practical applications that are important to me.
The iPad can do that.

The large, clear, brilliant screen, the perfect touch screen, long battery
Duration (10 hours are really in it!) And a wide range of software.
That's the mix that makes the success of this Alu flounder.

My impression: for Sustainable device type. My notebook looks at me, since I have the IPAD, only rarely. wiedenmann2
