So Apple announced its new tablet coined as the “iPad.” As usual Steve Jobs gets on stage with the same sweater and jeans, talks then demos the thing then the other guy comes up and so on. So I decided I’ll post some thoughts of mine after all the hype wears off a bit.
By the way, I’m not buying this thing but if you wanna send me one for free my hands are open 
On to the thoughts..
I really dislike the name. Apple, you had choices and you picked the worst one! You had iStale, iTablet, iBook, but you picked iPad?! When you’re skimming through headlines, you can easily mistake it for ‘iPod’. Oh and what of the period jokes! They’ll just never end.
Why would I want to use this thing anyway? Steve Jobs said its between the smartphone and the laptop, I just see it as an iPhone with a different interface. I just can’t stress this enough! The iPhone can do everything it does plus take pictures and videos. So can laptops, and they’re just as portable. On the other hand, it can act as a backup. Now I’m not the kind of guy that moves around a lot but if you are, you might actually benefit from its 10hr battery life. I’m not saying the thing sucks, I just don’t see where it fits.
Hold on.. What made the iPhone so ‘WOW!’? The touchscreen, it was something no one had ever seen before. The scrolling, the pinching, the accelormeter, the large screen etc. Why didn’t Apple do something different with the iPad? Why is it running iPhone OS? Why not OS X if it’s ‘like a laptop’? Or even better, why not its own OS? Something like Microsoft’s Surface PC would’ve been cool. Just think about it, playing around with stuff like that; it would’ve been a whole new experience! People would’ve gone crazy because of all the hype, and Apple wins again. Should’ve been, could’ve been, would’ve been, but wasn’t.
Oh and why the with or without 3G option? This is just like the 4GB iPhone, it’s going to be discontinued.
Flash on the iPad is a biggie. Why no Flash? You want the ‘best browsing experience’? You gotta have flash. Save it Steve, a computer browser holds that spot. End of story.

It’s easy to be frustrated with many of these article directories. It sure would be nice to have every article directory that hastily accepts your article.
