There comes a time when you have to decide whether you’ve crossed over to the too-geeky side of life: is pulling out your iPad on public transport too geeky? Surely not at Starbucks, though? For the times when you’d like to share your love for Apple’s tablet but don’t want to look too Cupertino-obsessed, Garry [...]
Apple’s official iPad case is great if you want a multifunctional folio and stand, but if all you’re concerned with is protecting your tablet from scrapes and scratches while it travels in your bag, a sleeve-style case might be an easier, cheaper alternative. Griffin sent over their Jumper sleeve, a low-cost neoprene case, so [...]
We’re all for new ways to read content on the iPad, especially when they look as great as they work, and so Alphonse Labs’ Pulse reader has definitely caught our eye. Designed, they tell us, to be “as beautiful as your iPad”, Pulse borrows the panning story bars we’ve seen on several standalone news apps [...]
Apple have confirmed that their iPad tablet has broken its first major sales milestone: it sold its one millionth iPad on Friday, April 30th 2010. That means it took less than a calendar month to ship 1m of the touchscreen slates, a feat which Apple CEO Steve Jobs contrasts to the 74 days which it [...]
Sprint’s 4G Case for the iPad is causing headaches, as customers complain of bait-and-switch style tactics. The carrier recently announced a special iPad sleeve with an integrated pocket for their 3G/4G Overdrive modem; that was followed by a promotion where you’d get a case free with the purchase of an Overdrive from select Best Buy [...]
Preorders for the iPad WiFi + 3G model may be currently showing May 7th as the estimated shipping date, but it may be easier to grab a WWAN-enabled tablet at your nearest Apple Store come April 30th. Apple have just pushed out a press release confirming that the first deliveries – for preorder customers – [...]
Intermittent WiFi problems have been the thorn in many iPad owners’ sides since the tablet first began shipping, but so far Apple haven’t been able to address the issue. Now Princeton University’s IT department has stepped in with a possible explanation, and according to them it’s not the iPad hardware that’s at fault but iPhone [...]
The iPad’s international launch may have been pushed back a month, but the UK carriers are seeing that – or, more likely, Apple’s confirmation of the May 10th preorder kick-off – as an excuse to start talking about their “dedicated iPad pricing plans”. Both Vodafone UK and O2 UK have announced that they will be [...]
Would-be buyers of the iPad who live outside the US are learning today that there’s a downside to the surprising success of the Apple tablet: launch delays. Apple have just announced that they are pushing back the international launch of the iPad for a month, from its original “end of April” window to the end [...]
iWork on the iPad – the collection of Pages, Keynote and Numbers – is Apple’s attempt to make the new tablet more than just a web-browsing, media playing device, but some users are finding it’s more of a headache than a help. The problem lies in how iWork handles elements in existing documents that it [...]
Last we heard, Saturday April 24th was the tipped launch date for the iPad in the UK (and potentially elsewhere in Europe too). Now, though, a new report suggests that in actual fact the UK iPad will likely arrive on Monday April 26th; CNET UK have apparently heard that a “major publisher’s app team” are [...]
