Background Information Is iPad a totally new concept? No Touch screen phones, Tablet PC, Notebooks that work with

stylus and Pocket PC to name a few Then why these devices didn’t get as much of a media and

public attention? What is so special about iPad? The commitment problem: no manufacturer really made an

effort to design the perfect device. The technological problem, faulty hardware, inefficient touch

screen interaction.


Background Information Inadequate input systems, writing recognition and voice

commands Price, Why pay for a device that doesn’t work well Software support – a poorly designed Windows OS.

IPAD


Discussion

Is iPad more of a luxury than a necessity? If future products with camera and phone will out do iPad? Will Microsoft and Others will provide compatibility with

iPad? Or iPad will have to accommodate Flash and Windows to

maintain market? Are iPad buyers think iPad is worth their money?


Personal Opinion

Yes iPad looks more like an entertainment device. But! May be in future it will develop more serious purposes. There are already millions of users, competitors has to make

their place. It is user friendly but it’s physical handling is not. Google thumbs up for iPad others may follow.
