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.
