iPad Review

[Atrosity]

So I was at my brothers place all weekend and he bought an iPad. Now I always knocked at the ipad and thought it was very gimmicky until I actually got to sit down with one and use it. This thing is amazing, some of you may say "it's just a larger iphone" but don't knock it until you try it because that is what I was doing.

Viewing the internet is very cool the screen looks sharper then my computer, it is very portable and easier to type on then a laptop when just lounging around on the couch and bed. To add to this is also the emailing and presentation. Emailing is very nice on this actually, I feel like I can email quicker on this then a netbook but not as fast as I could on my laptop or desktop. This is very nice for presentation as in I can just show you what I am looking at instead of dealing with a irregular L shaped laptop, I can just hand you the tablet pc.

What is very cool is watching on the app hulu+ I was watching the latest episodes of How I met your mother on this, what makes it nice is that it is again very portable. Watching on this is soo much easier then a netbook with a bigger screen and it is definitely a replacement to portable dvd players for the car, I was watching streamed movies in hd quality. Not to mention you have 16 Gigs for other movies you can put on here or music.

Lastly, the gaming apps on this is a lot of fun. On the iphone the games are cool but on this, the games are a lot bigger and you can do so much more and it is really interactive.

There is so much more you can do with this too as well. You guys can say "my laptop can do that or my phone can do thatand etc" but really this is awesome and that the whole experience of this as a package was really cool. For 500 it seems worth it to me. I plan on purchasing maybe the next generation one but not anytime soon.
