More random notes about the iPad:

• Sitting on the couch with the iPad is fun. Reading, watching video, browsing, twittering, etc. Will see how this works on the way (without the web).
• The battery seems to last forever.
• The screen is quickly full of finger presses which is annoying if you want to watch a movie after you have written some text for instance. Anyway, they can easily cleaned up, similiar to the iPhone.
• Reading outside in the sun is nearly impossible.
• I would really try out a complete qwerty keyboard (with numbers), even if the single keys have to be smaller then.
• I'm missing multitasking (never missed it on the iPhone).
• This device needs definitely a file system or a lot better file sharing.
• The new correction of the text input is very helpful. Just double tab a underlined word to get suggestions for replacement. And I just found the undo button - very helpful!
• The iWork suite is a nice start for productive apps, but I hope and think there will be a lot of improvements.
• The New York Times App is really great. Nice handling, images and videos can be watched inline or fullscreen with a tab or a pinch. I hope we'll get german counterparts soon. I would pay some money for it.
• Real Racing: Nice graphic and sound, it is cool to hold the iPad like the steering wheel in front of you.
• The Pinnball: Nice casual game.
• iPhone game, which is now fun: Earthquake Jim.

Generally

• It's crazy fast.
• It's heavier than expected (maybe a little bit to heavy)
• Writing with the keyboard works good. Within landscape mode I can even write with ten fingers.
• Safari rocks. It's really the web on your fingertips. It's very fast and inline videos (with fullscreen mode) are cool.
• iBook is great. Good handling, good looking, easy to use dictionary. (Kindle is also great)
• In general reading on the iPad is fun (but I also like reading on the iPhone).
• The speakers are good for me (but I'm not very demanding here).

Random 3rd Party Apps

• Penultimate (writing with a fingertip) looks good, will see how this is working in practice.
• AirVideo (Streaming video to the iPad) is stunning.
• Old iPhone games like Super Monkey Ball are fun again - actually more fun.
• WoframAlpha looks great and has a nice keyboard
