Apple iPad

A few weeks back in class we discussed the upcoming release of the Apple iPad. Well, the wait is over. The iPad hit stores this past week and immediately sold out. However, the iPad is meeting mixed reviews.

A winner with the general public, the iPad met hoards of people waiting in line to purchase the product. Apple stores reported customers clapping and cheering in line awaiting its debut. Many customers purchased iPads not just for themselves, but were so caught up in the emotion and excitment in the store that many customers ended up purchasing multiple iPads.

While overall the product launch was a success, many people still have their doubts about the iPad. The product launched this week came equipped with wifi. However, Apple plans to release a newer version equipped for 3G that many Apple patrons are waiting for. Another snag with the iPad appeal to the public is that many cannot justify the purchase. Most Apple customers already own an iPod or iPod touch as well as laptop. The iPad seems redundent.

Whether or not the iPad will be a long term success or a flash in the pan, only time will tell. If you would like to read more about this topic visit this website: http://http://www.usatoday.com/tech/products/2010-04-07-ipad07_ST_N.htm

IdeaPad U1 Hybrid

Last week, Apple Inc announced iPad. Apple believes iPad will be the best way to experience the web,email, photos and videos. Hands down!
When I was searching about iPad online, I found the other interesting PC product. That's Lenovo's IdeaPad U1 Hybrid, which Lenovo showed off it in January.
I haven't used either of them. For most people, I think they will prefer iPad to IdeaPad. After Lenovo mergered IBM's PC products, I'm looking forward to the new IdeaPad .
