January 27, 2010 6 Comments

There you go boys and girls. After weeks of speculating, rumor spreading and photo leaking, Apple has finally put to a rest to our anticipation. Steve Jobs has announced their latest creation, a magical and revolutionary device with an unbelievable price – the Apple iPad.

Alright you may stop laughing, giggling or smiling now. I know the name sucks. But hey, it’s still is an Apple product.

So, what does the iPad has to offer for all of us inflicted with the so called GAS ?(Gadget Acquisition Syndrome)?

Here are the iPad specs:

  • 9.7-inch IPS Display
  • 1GHz Apple A4 Chips
  • Capacitive multi-touch screen
  • Wi-Fi, 3G, Bluetooth
  • 16GB to 64GB Flash storage

Software-wise, it will support the iTunes and the Apps store plus Apple is also launching an e-book store called iBooks. Yes dear folks, the iPad is also an e-book reader.

Pricing:

  • $499 for the base 16GB Wi-Fi
  • $599 for the 32GB model Wi-Fi
  • $699 for the 64GB model Wi-Fi
  • $629 for the 16GB Wi-Fi + 3G
  • $729 for the 32GB Wi-Fi +3G
  • $829 for the 64GB Wi-Fi  +3G

So, netbook manufacturers can now rest easy knowing the fact that the Apple is not competing in the netbook market.

    I think I’ll wait for the HP Slate. This looks like an old digital picture frame with a fat border. Oh yes, 800 bucks for 64GB – think not. This looks like a gaint iphone, we have seen all this before. Is it just me or has all this been done before by others.

    @Marty – If ever I’m getting one, I settle for the base model. I agree $800 is too much for the specs.

    I wish it was already in my hands! I'm based in Hong Kong (China). Even though most of the machine was made here, we will get it long after the U.S. and Europe! That's not fair!
