My Week With The Ipad ....

I will get right into it. The Ipad has great appeal because of it's usability. And by that I mean you can do a lot with the Ipad considering you can only run your finger on or tap the screen.

From games to magazines, there are a lot of possibilities with the Ipad.

Using the screen was easy enough and it was responsive to what I wanted to do. I found typing on the Ipad for taking notes was relatively easy with the exception of capitalization with the onscreen equivalent of a shift key which seemed to be dodgy at times.

The person who used it before me had some cool apps downloaded such as the Thum Drum and Keyboard app which sound amazing and are very responsive.

I downloaded the IGN app, which was free, and was disappointed as it is nothing more then a bunch of articles you click on.

I noticed in an article from awhile back that the Ipad is big in business and I recall in the latest app commercial for the Ipad that you can drag and drop charts into a presentation, and that is the side that would make or break me purchasing an Ipad in the future; if it is as useful for business purposes as I've heard.

The next time I have the Ipad I will search out some more games and see what I can find!

PS Oh yeah, Angry Birds is an enjoyable game on the Ipad!

Go Water Horse!
