Five Reasons to Buy an iPad, Five Not As we all know that iPad is very popular product nowadays, many people want to buy one, but they need to confirm that $500 is worth to spend. Now we list five reasons to but an iPad and at the same time five reasone not to buy, you may make a comparison and make a decision by yourself. Five Reasons to Buy an iPad Portability. My MacBook Pro sits on an elevated stand and, if it’s anything like yours, is well connected. I have the following connections: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.
Mag-safe power Ethernet FireWire 800 to Time Machine drive USB 1 to USB hub USB 2 to Blue Snowflake Microphone DisplayPort to Cinema Display External Speakers Sonnet eSata Express card
Every time I want to go mobile around the house, I have to dismount the Time Machine drive, disconnect all the wires, then I can take the MBP to another room. I’m looking forward to the day when I can sit on my couch with the iPad ready and waiting on top of the coffee table and just be on the Internet. Right now. Gaming. The iPhone became a surprise hit among gamers, or at least expanded the market to include lots of previous non-gamers (such as myself). Either way, the iPad is optimized to improve the iPhone gaming experience, allowing new elements to be added to games that can be played on both the iPhone/iPod touch and the new iPad. Goes well in your minimalist chrome-and-leather living room. That black square coffee table with the glass centre is very nice, sitting between your black sofa and your black plasma-screen telly, but it looks naked somehow. It needs something hi-tech and expensive, yet at the same time stylish and unobtrusive and of course black, sitting on it. Perhaps something with a screen that glows an enticing tropical blue when you touch it. Perhaps

Remind you of anything? App Store. The iPad has the power of the App Store behind it. 140,000 apps strong and still steam rolling right along. Not only will there be more iPad centric apps coming soon, but you can use all of the apps in the App Store currently with it (even those which require a mic since the iPad has a built-in mic). With all the above going for it, the iPad almost doesn't have to do things like Web surfing and e-mail checking or document writing. But, it does them all and runs 140,000 iPhone apps besides. Sure, the best apps will be speciallywritten for the iPad, but you can use iPhone/iPod touch favorites right away. The Future. There's no question that this device is setting the stage for new technologies of the future. I don't expect the Mac and the Mac OS X technology to go away for a long time because there's just too large an investment in that technology. Plus many users need the customizability and control they have with a Mac OS X system. However, I expect that many of the advanced technologies of the fast-developing iPad will seep into the traditional Macs even as the iPad develops dramatically in its own capabilities. This mixture of technologies is not well mapped out yet — no one knows where the future will lead. Five Reasons Not to Buy It's not much of a work machine. New applications may hammer away at the iPad's limitations, but the truth is that a notebook or netbook or even (in many circumstances) an iPhone is much more useful. Maybe it isn't even fair to ask a device so well-tuned for entertainment to work at the office too, but Apple is promoting the iPad as a work tool. And right now, I have to respond, "No" in most circumstances. The wrong screen. It's not clear why Apple didn't choose a 16:9 aspect ratio, the standard for widescreen entertainment, but not doing so makes the iPad much less interesting for watching movies. Widescreen everything is today's video consumption standard. But iPad's aspect ratio takes you back to the last decade. My smartphone not only displays video in 16:9 ratio, it shoots photos that way, too. There's no camera. But there should be two, one pointing outwards for taking photos and supporting applications and another inward facing for video conferencing. Camera is one of the greatest utilities on most portable devices,

Camera already is important on cell phones for using third-party services like Amazon product search, barcode search and location informational services. The iPad is a "tweener," in the bad sense of the word. Not a computer, but not a smartphone, the iPad lacks the functionality of a notebook and the convenience of an iPhone or Droid. The iPad may be just one more thing to haul around if you already carry a notebook, which it doesn't come close to replacing. Persistant data connection costs too much. The cheapo, 16GB model sells for $499 with 802.11n wireless. For 3G, buyers must pony up between $629 and $829 plus another $30/month to AT&T for data service. Well, there's a 15-buck plan for 250MB of data. Amazon's Kindle and Barnes and Noble Nook ebook readers come with free 3G service. Sure, iPad does so much more, but the user not only pays about twice as much for the device but $15 or $30 month, instead of nothing. The bigger question: Why pay for two 3G services -- smartphone and iPad? My answer is none. Related iPad Reviews: General Reviews on iPad
