1.INTRODUCTION:
Apple's new iPad has helped to define the broader tablet market, even though it has yet to ship,
according to research firm ABI Research. The firm said Tuesday that shipments of tablet devices
- defined as touchscreen interface devices measuring five to eleven inches with WiFi, video and
gaming capabilities, will measure four million units in 2010, and rise to 57 million units by 2015,
prodded along by the iPad.

How big is it?


The iPad's screen offers a maximum resolution of 1,024x768 pixels and
measures 9.7 inches diagonally, 5.75 inches wide, and 7.75 inches
tall. An 0.86-inch bezel frames the screen (with a hair extra room
on the bottom to account for the home button), making the front of
the iPad a total of 7.47 inches wide and 9.56 inches tall. The total
thickness of the iPad is half an inch at its thickest point, which
tapers down to a quarter of an inch near the edges. Total weight is
1.5 pounds for the model with Wi-Fi only, or 1.6 pounds for the
version with 3G.

What hardware features does the iPad offer?


Many of the iPad's hardware capabilities are identical to the Apple
iPod Touch, including Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 2.1, a stereo audio output
(headphone jack), built-in speaker, an integrated lithium ion
rechargeable battery, and NAND flash memory. A built-in
accelerometer and ambient light sensor are also included on the
iPad.

Hardware features that distinguish the iPad from the iPod Touch
include a 1GHz A4 processor, an oleophobic screen coating,
integrated digital compass, built-in microphone, mute switch, and
support for 802.11n Wi-Fi (in addition to 802.11b/g). The 3G
version of the iPad includes a SIM card tray, as well as assisted GPS
capabilities.

What's the deal with the wireless plan?


Apple and AT&T are offering a pretty good deal on 3G service for the iPad. There are two
options: $15 a month for 250MB of data, or unlimited data for $29.99 a month. The bonus is
that you don't have to sign any contracts that bind you to the device for two years. Each
option can be prepaid for a month in advance. Again, you need the iPad 3G model, which
bumps up the baseline price of the device to $629 (16GB), $729 (32GB), and $829 (64GB).

If I already have apps for my iPhone or iPod Touch, can I use


them on the iPad?
In most cases, the answer should be yes. Older or existing apps can
run on the iPad at their native iPod/iPhone resolution (taking up a
small portion of the iPad screen) or used in a full-screen mode that
artificially doubles the resolution. So long as the apps are in your
iTunes library when you connect the iPad to your computer, most
should transfer with no problem. There are exceptions, of course.
Apps designed to take advantage of unique hardware characteristics
of the iPhone (such as the photo camera or video recording) may
not transfer, and would be useless on the iPad anyway.

When and where can I buy it, and how much is this going to
set me back?
There are two versions of the iPad. Apple announced Friday that the
Wi-Fi version will launch in the U.S. on April 3, followed by the Wi-Fi
and 3G-capable edition later in the month. Both versions will hit
Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Spain,
Switzerland, and the U.K. in late April.

The price depends on your 3G needs and how much storage you
require. The iPad's Wi-Fi-only version will start at $499 for 16GB of

memory, $599 for 32GB, and $699 for 64GB. The Wi-Fi + 3G
edition will cost $629 for 16GB, $729 for 32GB, and $829 for 64GB.

You can preorder both versions starting March 12, and you can
order it for delivery from Apple.com or reserve a Wi-Fi version to
pick up on April 3 at any Apple retail store.

In late March, Apple announced that the iPad would go on sale at all
221 U.S. Apple retail stores and most Best Buy stores on Saturday,
April 3, beginning at 9 a.m. local time. The device will also be
available at select Apple authorized resellers and campus
bookstores.

the warning for an application the second time you tap OK. Tap Reset
Location Warnings to resume the warnings.

14.What hardware features does the iPad offer?


Many of the iPad's hardware capabilities are identical to the Apple iPod
Touch, including Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 2.1, a stereo audio output (headphone
jack), built-in speaker, an integrated lithium ion rechargeable battery, and
NAND flash memory. A built-in accelerometer and ambient light sensor are

built-in microphone, mute switch, and support for 802.11n Wi-Fi (in addition
to 802.11b/g). The 3G version of the iPad includes a SIM card tray, as well as
assisted GPS capabilities.

15.What's the deal with the wireless plan?

$29.99 a month. The bonus is that you don't have to sign any contracts that

exceptions, of course. Apps designed to take advantage of unique hardware
characteristics of the iPhone (such as the photo camera or video recording)
may not transfer, and would be useless on the iPad anyway.

That said, many popular apps for the iPhone and iPod Touch will likely be
offered in a new iPad-specific version that makes better use of the device's
larger screen. These apps, designed specifically for the iPad, will not be
backward-compatible with the iPhone and iPod Touch.

17.I've heard the iPad is basically just an oversize iPod Touch. Is that
true?
In some ways, it is a supersized version of Apple's touch-screen iPod: same
basic look and functionality with its multitouch screen and reliance on iTunes
and the App Store to install applications and download media. But there are
plenty of differences.

18.After I get my iPad, what happens if the battery dies?


You'll have to have Apple replace the battery, as is the case with the iPhone
and the iPod. And it'll cost you: Apple has set a fee of $99 for the service.
Add on $6.95 for shipping and the price rises to $105.95 per unit. For your
money, you'll actually get a whole replacement iPad, but not any personal

data from your original device. You'll have to make sure you keep an up-to-
date backup of all that data--contacts, calendars, e-mail account, and so on.
