Right at the beginning should confess their error in judgment. When the iPad was announced, I wrote

iPad in the hands MacKorisnik: MacKorisnik.com - magazine for Mac users
After a month of intensive use, it was time to write something about this product. It took a long time to sort out the impressions and to crystallize some kind of patterns of behavior when working with this device, to the spirit of Mac * Users * could write something about the usage, not about of which it is made. During this month, the article content is significantly changed with each weekly use and only now I feel the impressions on the site and that the conclusions in the article is correct and based on experience in working jameslist with the machine, jameslist not on first impression.
In fact it seems to me that I wrote five articles, not this one and I am completely stuck in the writing of other services. Oh, how I honestly struggled writing this, the order is to tantalize your reading, so let's go.
Right at the beginning should confess their error in judgment. When the iPad was announced, I wrote that it would be primarily a multimedia device. And although I am sure that Apple intended to do just a multimedia device, what they did was first of all, and most of all, something that could be described as "Internet reader."
Though of course quite well performs the role of the media player, e-book readers, personal "organajzera" etc.. iPad will be by far the most used for "screening" on the Internet. So the first valuable advice to anyone jameslist thinking of procurement iPad: if you have not all the places where you can use covered jameslist by Wi-Fi network required (but not necessarily) buy a 3G version, because the iPad is without Internet access pretty jameslist limited device. But let's start from the beginning.
A short (and not so) response: browse websites and use (almost all) web services, read and write e-mails, monitor RSS feeds, play video games, read e-books and comics, watch videos, listen to music, write short notes and longer jameslist texts, do presentations ...
From this it is clear that in the first place is a device for personal and home use, and less about the device for business purposes, but that in the end it turns out that the iPad more than 80% of the time is used for accessing Internet content, and the rest to all other described activities, if your job involves using the Internet jameslist very quickly a good portion of such operations jameslist transferred to this unit.
iPad is a hardware (or rather its form) almost ideal device for accessing the Internet. In this respect, the iPad is a real revolutionary device in the sense that significant changes (and better) way in which the Internet is used. For the first time we have a device that provides full Internet experience without being in one way or another related to a job or that we are limited by its form. While the laptop is less used at several locations suitable for him, almost no place in the house where it resides, and to be on it can not use the iPad. Chair, chair, sofa, bed, kitchen ... the iPad is equally suitable for all, and that therefore, disappears ritual preparation for accessing the Internet on which we have been forced, the Internet is slowly crawl deeper into our everyday lives. jameslist Internet sessions are also more likely than in the past, but on average much shorter, since it just as easily and goes after what we have looked jameslist at what we need.
But not just iPads portability what makes it almost ideal Internet device. A good share of the credit for that belongs to its interface to use website seems more natural jameslist than ever before. It is very interesting to watch how the sites with the same (very small) amount of effort going and experienced Internet users and those who are less skilled, which is used as a web browser on a computer certainly jameslist have to concentrate on what they do. At the touch interface based on such a large device works even better than the unit size of the iPhone and it should be noted that it is a pleasure to use.
However, while in form nearly ideal, iPad on the software level there is still much room for improvement. Webkit engine truth is very good at his job of displaying Web pages, but safari controls are far from ideal. jameslist Certainly the most annoying thing about working with iPadovim Safari are tabs. From the manner in which they are accessed (the button in the toolbar at the top of the screen), so the fact that we are limited to a maximum of 9 tabs. There are of course several alternative browsers that use WebKit engine, and trying to address the aforementioned problems, but no one for me is not good enough made.
Working with e-mail again "mixed experience". Apple's mail client application is simply too rudimentary for users who receive large amounts of emails. Of course we can easily read messages and respond to them, but for any demanding email management will have to be moved to a computer. On the other hand, Google's mobile interface for Gmail service (Custom iPad) is almost perfectly done and I read the email on iPad only help
