Reality check: MacKorisnik.com - magazine for Mac users
After our traditional (but this time the unusual) monitoring of Apple's unveiling of the new product line is that you think about what it was tonight presented and some of the things we put on "paper". Apple has for the umpteenth time, managed to introduce a product that comes even close to the expectations of the masses (no camera, no multitasking, contemporary no ... no ... no ...) and as with the iMac, iPod or iPhone cause black forecasts contemporary insiders guide.
Indeed, the iPad (properly "ajped", but in the future in our region almost contemporary certainly widely known as the "iPad") is a device that needs a bit of scratch your head. Seemingly in nothing special, full of restrictions and of course expensive, again like the iMac, iPod, MacBook or iPhone, the device is that which many now predict guaranteed and swift destruction. But is this really so?
At the beginning let's see how does your author is qualified to present these estimates. A few days ago I have dared fact and I (though never do it) publicly speculate about a new product, so let's look at how many times I missed. 10.01.2010. g. I wrote:
Half a faux half goal: although contemporary it is a hybrid tablet, e-book reader and netbook, iPad is still a direct competitor Kindle, Nook, all existing tablets, and in the case of good deeds users and netbooks. Reason: all these devices still half-functional.
Bingo 6 "Touch"
Of the 11 claims 8 accurate, contemporary two half-correct one (though doubtful) failure. I am happy and now I'm The fresh impetus experts / prophets try to evaluate the device that was presented to us. (Of course, anyone who follows Apple and trying to think rationally contemporary about how he could come to the same conclusions).
First, the iPad * is * just oversized iPod Touch ... that looks like a compacted cover (display) MacBook and technical specifications apparently is not something revolutionary, or better contemporary said, does not have any functionality that we have been inconceivable. But let's look at it better.
Although it will be the first course buy "gadget freaks" contemporary This device is not intended contemporary for them. As I said in the comments, this is my computer for nekompjuteraše. COM for those who do not want to have a computer. Today there are a number of people who want the benefits of the Internet, but do not want to have a computer, take care of it and learn to use it. All those iPhone contemporary users who use the computer only when they need to sync the iPhone, mothers, fathers, grandfathers and grandmothers (from the wealthy family contemporary of course). Generally everyone who wants to the internet, and I shudder to computers are the first target group for this and similar (and there will be no worries) devices.
However, the computer guys will use it. All those who want Internet, video, or whatever else digitally consumed on the couch or in a chair, sooner or later will want such a device. And many users of netbooks will move, because "let's face it," netbooks are no matter how "cool" right "pressure" to use. But to understand the value of such a device should cease to think of him as the computer because it still belongs to the category of "household appliances" such as a TV. If the iPad and is okljaštreno computer, it is a very advanced television.
Whatever we say about him when we look at the specs (and only "newb" assess the condition solely on the basis of technical specifications), my opinion is that in spite of them this device has a real chance to penetrate deeper into our lives than is the case with netbooks, tablet or an e-book reader. First, because it has a lot more features and functionality of the application of classical and netbook and tablet and eBook Reader. And if we look a little deeper we can easily see that this is the first successfully performed a universal computer interface. Interface, as according to various media, and to devices contemporary in the home and the living room, and ultimately mobile interface contemporary for our computer. contemporary The real Star Trek Tricorder for the modern home. Has anyone contemporary tried the EyeTV for iPhone?
In general lower than in the living room. While it's "form factor" makes it ideal for "at home", it is less convenient for nosanje around. The iPad is a household appliance, but it will be in different offices. On the street, to a lesser extent, but cafes and various waiting rooms do not exclude.
Phew, this is a difficult question. It depends on what is considered the serious work. If this is the presentation, contemporary work with e-mail or communicating online, then indeed the iPad has its application in this paper. If nothing else, not some time will separate us from the computer, and I am sure that in the future only to discover some of its application in business.
To conclude for now: it is my assessment that the iPad will be successful about as much as iPod and iPhone. Why? Because it targets a much wider audience than the audience for iPod and iPhone, because the Internet has become an integral part of the lives of all of us, not just a small handful of insiders
