Apple will sell the IPAD free, unlocked to use any card operator and we wish for 3G connectivity.

Applications and Operating System IPAD

We reached the point most interesting of all (that’s difficult), and let’s see what we find for the IPAD applications and operating system you use.

iPhone OS: although it is called iPhone OS, the operating system is a mixture of IPAD and it being Mac OS X. It really is an iPhone version of OS adapted to big screen but with the peculiarity that can launch applications directly to iPhone and run some of the components of Mac OS X and iWork.

IPAD applications

The IPAD allows (unlike the iPhone) use custom backgrounds, iPhone apps run full screen and even as Steve Jobs said, iPhone applications to pass IPAD.

Safari: The browser still has virtually the same interface as always, has been only slightly modified to get the best of the desktop and the Phone. As in iPhone OS, still no Flash support, which is not much of a problem if we take into account new HTML5 tags.

E-mail (Mail): In this as in many others, the screen of 9.7 inches of IPAD has enabled Apple to improve mail services. Now the application runs in two columns and provides pull-down menus, as well as a huge virtual keyboard to make writing them.

IPAD video photos

iCal, iPhoto and Address Book: renewed calendar interface makes it seem more real agenda an application, but certainly, where we saw a real difference has been in iPhoto, as well as their older siblings, to reproduce the photographs with multimedia functions: albums, faces, places, etc.

IPAD GPS: At this point I could not miss a good display of maps. IPADE change the way you see maps with amazing fluency in the various movements and scroll Zoom allowed. In addition, the IPAD integrates perfectly the views of Street View.

Price IPAD

The most amazing thing is that Apple has managed to place a work of art technology in the economic framework of the most common devices. We all thought that the price of Apple’s IPAD might be at its most basic about $ 1,000, but the truth is that everyone left with their mouths open to see the cost starts from $ 499.
