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.

Apple iPad Available for Pre-order

The day has finally arrived. The long anticipated tablet from Apple is now available for preorder, with the device arriving on your doorstep on April 3. All 6 configurations are available to preorder, but only the WiFi versions will be delivered on April 3. The prices are the same as they were when the device was announced.

Apple also updated the navigation bar on their website to include the iPad, and also separated iPod + iTunes into two different tabs.

iPad Rumors

We're exactly 27 days from the iPad's launch day, and there were some rumors about it. Here is collection of some rumors that were shown on the web since it was announced:

1. Camera Support

Some found out on the iPad's SDK that there was a front facing camera support as well as a camera flash, zoom and video conferencing, and there was a space for a camera in the iPad's enclosure.

I don't think this will happen in this version of iPad, but definitely on future versions.

2. Widget Based Apps

Some noticed that there were some apps missing from the iPhone's OS, that apps were: Clock's, Calculator, Weather, Compass and Stock's, and there were some rumors that these apps would come to the iPad as Widget like based apps.

In my opinion, this will happen on this version of iPad. And is something that Apple has kept hidden.

3. Hulu for the iPad

Some weeks after the iPad was announced, there was a report that Hulu was making it's way to the iPad, with a paid subscription service.

I think this is very likely to happen in this version of iPad, and it would be very interesting to watch Hulu on the iPad.

There were some many other rumors, but I think these were the most interesting ones, I am very exited for the iPad's launch, specially to see if these rumors are really true.

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.
