There is actually a reason why we, bloggers, hate the iPad. It was because we were told ‘differently’. Personally, I think iPad could have been a better product if it didn’t have Special Event or in another words it was released quietly.

First of all it didn’t possess the feature the bloggers were dying to see. We were told that the iPad has some sort of Air Touch / Smart recognition feature instead of Multi-touch. With this technology you would be able to control the iPad without touching it; the concept is pretty much similar to Microsoft’s Project Natal. The iPad is nowhere close to being ‘revolutionary’ it is the kind of product that possesses the same technology Apple had for years.

It is disappointing that we did not see anything new; there were no new feature being introduced by Apple. Sure a bigger screen iPhone is somewhat cool and probably very convenient when it comes to writing email and browsing the web. However it is not necessarily by any means ‘a device that will be replacing netbooks’ as claimed by Apple.

Technically it is a bigger iPhone that can’t call; forget about all those redesigned applications (iPad is nothing more than ‘a bigger iPhone that can’t make or receive calls’)

Some people are okay with it; tweeple (twitter people) are still tweeting about the iPad and it is still a trending topic and it gives some sense why I needed to make another iPad post. I promise this will be the last iPad post at least for the month.
