The iPad Revolutionary Future – A New Era

Apple has just announced their latest gadget – the iPad which I belive is an industry and revolutionary game changer. Although some critics are already citing reasons why this technology is not as advanced as expected and are finding flaws with it, I think to the contrary. Similar to what Apple has done with graphic user interface (GUI) in the 80s, then followed by many innovative technologies in the 90s, and then the introduction of the iPhod, iPhone, music and movies, they are now leading into the future again with this remarkable invention.

So what is the big deal with this iPad and is it just a big iPod? Well read on.

  1. Several years ago I said that sales of hard copy books will drastically subside and be replaced with the dramatic increase in digital book purchases. This is already happening and the iPad will make it a complete reality.
  2. The newspaper industry is in a huge decline and elimination. The iPad will make it attractive to digitally read newspapers in intuitive ways which are unimaginable in hard copy.
  3. I resisted the Kindle because I wanted a cool tablet which has the power of a powerful computer and displays vivid colors. Steve Jobs made this a reality for me today.
  4. I am already using an app on my iPhone that has handwriting capabilities. I am sure this is going to be available on the iPad very shortly and not require these silly digital pens to be carried around.
  5. So just a big iPod? Absolutely not! I would call this a Microsoft and Kindle killer. And actually the more I think about it, this is an amazing example of looking into the future in the present.

  1. Chad,

    This is a very interesting view point on the new IPad. I too think that the IPad is very innovative and could perhaps change the way some people use computers.

    Although, I think the IPad may fall short in some ways..heres why..

    Personally, I think there is something to be said for opening up a real book or newspaper. Maybe its the aroma of a fresh newspaper or just the simplicity of opening a new book. I have perfect 20/20 vision which I am grateful for but I find that its annoying to read online vs a hard copy of something. I can not imagine what that will be like 10yrs from now. 🙂

    On the other hand maybe its the nerd in me but im dying to get my hands on one of these IPads. It should defiantly be interesting to watch how the IPad effects the industry.

  2. Well finally Apple has announced its truly revolutionary device-iPad which is perfect for your mobile computing lifestyle, including browsing the Web, reading and sending e-mail, enjoying photos, watching videos, listening to music, playing games, and much more.
