IPad: Time May Be On Our Side

I was just reading several blog posts and news about iPad and literally amazed by the number of negative comments and horrific responses spread through the internet. After its first release back in January 2010, iPad has been receiving a lot of negative comments from different people. The reason is because several “possible flaws” that iPad have; yes, I did say possible flaws, and I’, going to show you why.

Let’s start with a simple review on iPad as a device. The 9.7-inch 1024-by-768-pixel LED-backlit display installed on this gadget is simply amazing, perfect for multimedia viewing as well as eBook reading; the eBook reading part might be arguable, especially because some people don’t really enjoy reading eBooks on backlit screen. The additional external keyboard and iPad Case would do a fantastic job in covering for keyboard and handling flaws, making it one solid device indeed.

Before you throw any negative comments, you need to remember that iPad is not on the market just yet. In this case, time is really on our side; there are a lot of chances that Apple might improve iPad before the official market release, including adding several features and improving the current ones. The lack of multitasking support can be improved by updating the operating system, along with adding handwriting recognition and better support for iPhone apps. The battery life can also be improved while they are at it. In this case, hold off giving negative comments until Apple actually sell iPad to the general market.
