AI, Mobile, and Eveything Around the Cloud

When the iPhone first appeared on the market, I thought wouldn't it be great if there was a way to connect an external keyboard. Months later, I thought the same. Then after a year or so, I finally gave up. Then the iPad. Along the way, before Steve Jobs officially unveiled it to the world, I thought it would be great to have a keyboard with a dock for the iPad. After all the screen is large enough for people who want to use it to write papers or the next bestseller. Well, it's here. I actually got it yesterday but I didn't get to try it out until just now. In fact, if not for the expected tardiness of my friends, I wouldn't have the opportunity to do this. So, first impressions. The keyboard is just the like the regular keyboard for the Mac. Elegantly designed. The dock at the back kind of sticks out but since I'm not able to provide a solution, I'm not one to criticize it. There are dedicated buttons for the iPad.

This is the first post i am making from the new Blogpress app that is optimized for the Ipad as well as the iPhone. Up until now, I was writing through the Blogger page through Safari.

Then imagine months after developers have had a chance to play with the new mobile OS, we will be treated to giant leap in mobile computing. As a consumer of of data, media, and apps, it doesn't get any better than this. As Apple fans, it'll be interesting to see Apple's competitors begin their annual ritual of...

The iPad is easy to love. I love it the moment I got it at the Apple store and opened it up while I was there. In fact, you can see the looks on the faces of the new owners. Smiles all around. But once you take it home, that's when you start getting to know each other. I loaded up with a lot of iPad specific apps but I was itching to trying out the iPhone apps as well. Still, I was trying to get to know to know the iPad. It was not easy. The biggest problem I had was trying to compare it too the iPhone. I think that was a mistake. Just as the iPhone changed the smartphone market, elevated it to a whole new level as some would argue, the iPad is creating a whole new market segment in mobile computing and possibly redefining how we consume media. I am typing this post up on the iPad right now and even typing will take time to get used to. In time, I will not only love the iPad but also learn to appreciate what it can do.
