App Review: Apple Store

This app does exactly what you would think it would. It connects you to the Apple Store wherever you are. With this app you can buy Apple products, accessories, find stores near you and shows any recent front page Apple news. It comes complete with almost every feature of the online Apple Store.             

This app has a nice layout that looks similar to the the App Store and the iTunes apps, which is nice. However, I was a little annoyed that it didn’t have the same icon look to it as the App Store and iTunes Store.

Pros:

• Full acess to the Apple Store
• Small file size

Cons:

• It can take a while to load when not on Wi-Fi or 3G
• Does not have same icon look as iTunes Store or App Store

Overall: 9/10

Can you still say that the iPad is useless?

Is the iPad more like a Mac, or an iPhone?-UPDATED

I'm sure the question has already been asked. I am here to answer it. I'm correlating all the ways the iPad is like a Mac, and all the ways it is like an iPhone.

Aspects shared by the iPad and Mac:

• When purchased, you are given the option to recycle your own computer
• Runs iWork full-fledged
• Can be mailed in for repair (MacBooks are the only Macs that can be mailed in)
• LED Display
• Has file syncing/sharing/downloading capabilities
• Has 802.11n WiFi

Aspects shared by the iPad and iPhone:

• An App Store
• The UI (The iPad UI is a bit more rich, and user-friendly)
• Is synced to a computer
• No user-accessible file system
• Two-year AppleCare extended warranty (suggested by MacFusionGirl, thanks!)

I'll let you guys decide. Let me know in the comments what you think.

Why Android Will Ultimately Fail

Android has some impressive features. It can run multiple apps at once, supports the 1GHz Nexus One, and overlays demographic data onto a map.

And that is precisely why they'll fail.

If you are a geek, you may want more out of the iPhone or the iPad. You want the ability to customize the UI, run multiple apps at once, and download apps that may or may not be damaging to the core services of your phone. All these things must be done with some knowledge of how technology works; how processors deal with tasks, for example. If you are running multiple apps, you'll need to figure out which app is a CPU hog, and quit it. This is easy if you're a geek. But, if you're an average user, this may be incredibly hard to comprehend.

The 1984 Mac introduced the GUI. The GUI revolutionized computers… It let users run a computer without extensive knowledge of how it actually works… no need to know any command line whatsoever. The iPhone is doing that with cell phones. It's simplifying the cell phone. Yet, making it more powerful. So you don't have to deal with a task manager on a mobile device.

I wanted to keep this brief, but you can view the continuation here.
