iPad Part 2
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.
