Here is my first effort from testing a few editing applications on Apple’s magical and revolutionary iPad device:
And You Thought I Was Smart!
As I reported on my Facebook page yesterday, I received an email shipping notification from Apple stating that my iPad had shipped. As is typically the case with a shipping notification, based on the tracking number, UPS stated it had no notion of the packages location initially but did state it was aware of the shipment. So this morning I checked again…
APPLE NOW ACCEPTING IPAD APPS FROM DEVELOPERS
Yeah!. I can't wait for April 3rd. I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas...
iPadded. Did you?
On Friday, a mere two hours after Apple began accepting pre-orders for their newest device, the iPad, I placed my order for two of them. (I also bought one for Deb since she deserves the best.)
I opted for the 64GB Wi-Fi version, without 3G. Since I am already an iPhone owner and devotee I didn’t feel the need for yet another data plan. At some point I plan on getting a MiFi™ device and the capabilities of that connection should be easily leveraged by the iPad, no matter where I am, provided, of course, that I have a 3G connection.
The device is scheduled to be delivered on April 3, 2010. I opted to have the iPad shipped to my house rather than try to deal with the craziness certain to be prevalent at my local Apple store. It should be a fun day because I am very impressed the devices that Apple the designers and engineers produce. They tend to be extremely well-engineered and the software and operating system are always intuitive and very integrated. I am looking forward to having all of my existing iPhone apps work seamlessly on the iPad out of the box. I am also looking forward to browsing the internet with such a large screen!
So, iPadded, did you? ;-)
