IPad This is an
interesting improvement over iPhone, if only you ignore telephony and
Camera. Even telephony is possible but I don't recommend it except through
internet. Ipad's
performance can be understood and appreciated only if you have a wi-fi
internet access point at your home or office. The greatest advantages
of ipad are its Large 10" High-Density LED screen with its IP-S (in
plane-switching); and its very long battery life of more than 8
hrs, which may be more when wi-fi is off.. The memory
ranges from 16 GB to 64 GB and the price ranges above ` 25000 depending on
memory. What you
can do? The
simplest things you can do are to put Photo albums, Music etc into the iPad
through iTunes, latest version. You can also browse the web and see emails. The web
browser "Safari" is a lousy one. It does not support many
things. The fonts of other languages are not supported. Thus, you can't
read Eenadu Telugu paper in the iPad ! The email
viewing is not at all a satisfactory experience. When you click a
web-link from email, the email application closes!! There is also no
way to save emails, or web pages, as the application does not support the
same. There are a
number of Free applications which you can download after registering your
name and credit card. For this, keep your Credit card ready and press the
App Store button and the first time you will be asked to register an Apple
account. You won't
be charged if you download free applications...and many of the applications
are absolutely free. I find
that the iBook is the Best application. Its free and you can download a
number of books free and enjoy reading them. Another nice application
is Yupp TV, which converts your iPad into a live TV, mostly for Telugu
channels. The MotionX GPS lite is very nice for tracking your local trips. It
does not require a SIM card and connects directly with the GPS satellites. I
downloaded some games like Sudoku and Solitaire as they are useful to me.
The videos
feature is exciting. But it supports only .m4v or .mp4 format. I use
a free video converter to convert into .mp4 format. I also keep
downloading my favorite songs from youtube and putting them in videos.
How to do this is slightly complicated. First load
Realplayer SP Free in your laptop or desktop. Then select your favorite
song in youtube. If you place the mouse pointer on the movie,
"Download to Realplayer format" appears. After downloading,
use real player converter to convert to iPad format and enjoy. Some books
are available free as applications. I downloaded Bhagavad Gita and Hanuman
Chalisa. What you
can't do ? Multi-Tasking
or operating different windows is not possible. This is the major
defect and due to this, you don't feel like touching the iPad after a few
weeks. It does
not have a USB port for USB internet and you have to be GPRS connected where
wi-fi is not there. Another
major defect is the total dependency on iTunes. I do not know why Apple
cannot consider direct drag and drop facility to iPad. There is
also no possibility of Printing and no Office-type application to type. Again
Blue-tooth is a real tooth-ache. It does not connect to any non-apple
gadgets. So forget about connecting to your Nokia phone.
