Sneak Peak at reading a comic on the iPad

So this is fun. We all know the big win with the iPad is the large screen; yes I know, its just an over-sized iPod touch, but still, that size change makes all the difference. For me, it will be game play (which I do not have time for anymore ) reading (and please no… Read More

Why you should jailbreak your iPad

Jailbreak the ipad?  Oh yea!  From what I’ve heard, we should have a blackra1n or some other jailbreaking or pwning tool pretty soon after the ipad hits the street.  I would guess the iPad is going to run some form of 3.1.3 or perhaps we should just call it 3.2 because you know they will… Read More

Play piano and other instruments on the iPad

Well sure!!  Why didn’t I think of this??  Back in the jailbreak days we have some really cool little music apps to play with.  My favorite was the guitar. But like all the instruments, there really want much you could do with the small screen. Well now that is no longer an issue and a… Read More

Opera on the iphone will be cool, but on the iPad, Sweeet!

Need to replace that battery in your iPad? $100

On the surface, that’s not too bad, but there are a few issues I have with it.. First off, batteries can lose their life span pretty quickly if you are not careful or if you are unlucky and get one that dies a quick death in a few months.  Heat, and rapid charging and discharging… Read More

Most Kindle users would rather have an iPad

I’ve been using tablets for years.. Years!  So when the Kindle first came out, my first reaction was, meh.  Partly because of the price point, and partly because I knew that something that focused on text and ignored rich media was simply too one dimensional of a device.  I have friends that have kindles, and… Read More

iPad ready on April 3, but will the crowds?

The hype pad, or iPad as its called, is ready for purchase on April 3.  I do not expect the madness that the first iPhone created, more like when the 3gs came out.  I think you will have some overnightsers and I would expect a good set of lines on the first day since April… Read More

Will Apple drop the price on the IPAD? And by how much?

To no big surprise, the IPAD does not seem to be catching fire as apple had hoped and as such, price drop is already being thrown around. One mostly hears dropping the price by $50 to $75.   I’m not sure that is going to be enough. In a past post, I said that perhaps $300… Read More

Googles new Tablet is the first counterstrike to Apples opening shot

We pick up in the war after the CrunchPad came and went, various ‘tablets’ from other manufactures have taken up position on the field.  Apples iPad is the first heavy into battle, and with great surprise, not to much effect.  The general reception to the iPad has been even at best.  Now comes Googles tablet,… Read More

Why Im not going to buy the Apple iPad. Yet

The apple iPad is finally out. And it’s pretty much what we expected; a really big and hyper powered iPhone/iPod.  Anyway, all in all, that’s ok. So why am I not buying one? Well it’s because I already have an iPhone. Now, if I was a big iPhone game player, we would be having a… Read More
