I got an iPad!!!! And guess what!? There is a Blogger app for it! Which will hopefully mean that blogging is always just a touch away. So, for those that would like it here is my review of the iPad after my first night with it.
PROS:
1. Fast
The iPad is faster than even my iPhone 4. It is seamless when switching back and forth from application to application, and it is super reactive to touch.
2. Easy
If you have ever owned an iPhone, iTouch, or even played with one, then you already know how to use an iPad. The user interface is one of Apple's proud spots. They make it easy for a reason, so that user's will enjoy it.
3. Sharp Display
Everything looks better on this thing. Of course the huge screen as compared to the iPhone helps. However, I really have to admit...seeing Words with Friends on an almost 8 1/2 x 11 scale is pretty incredible.
CONS:
1. No camera
This kind of stinks, especially considering how cool pictures look on here, but i am hoping for some sort of solution where you can hook your iPhone to it and transfer pictures directly to it. This would be easier than connecting your camera (or iPhone) to the computer, and then hooking your computer to your iPad, just to get some lousy pictures!
2.No multitasking ... yet.
As of right now, my iPhone 4 spoiled brain will have to switch back and forth from app to app. But the word on the streets is that in November, there is going to be a huge update to iPad which will include multitasking and folders.
3.Not all apps are optimized for iPad
I haven't found any apps that I absolutely must have that aren't available in some form for iPad. Also, a lot of website-based apps (Facebook, Bank apps, Search engines) look beautiful in the web version on Safari. So the app is rendered almost redundant.
So there it is:) Overall, COMPLETELY satisfied with the purchase. More than satisfied...exhilarated !!! I can't wait for the update in November to see what it brings.
