Way back in the year 2000, Bill Gates stepped onto a platform at a computer show and held in the palm of his hand anew kind of computer absolutely strange to those in the audience. It had a flat shape, and even more unusual, it was missing a keyboard. He then started to inform everyone what appeared to be an almost entirely unenthusiastic audience that in a few years, this foreign looking thing would become a worldwide sensation.
It was the year 2000. Bill Gates was revealing to the entire world to something Microsoft called the Tablet PC. Microsoft went to the electronics show once again the following year and showed it once again to a doubtful world.
Microsoft's new device never became popular. For good reason, it wasn't much more than a netbook computer, and not something you would call particularly powerful! On top of that, it wasmissing a keyboard.
Now Apple has come out with its own version of Microsoft's Tablet PC with the iPad.
So why the big commotion?

The iPad has a thin look being a mere half an inch at its thickest surface. It's a lightweight, weighing just 1.5 lbs. It runs on an operating system that can be considered as a beefed up version as the one inside the iPhone. Its displaying ability consists of a very good touch screen that isultrabright with awesome clarity especially so since the screen is simply 9.7 inches.
The iPad can do a whole lot of things, like being able to do web-browsing, e-mailing, photo storage, music and game playing, word processing, spreadsheets, presentations, and display e-books. Takenote of the fact that there are other products that can do just about all these things things, just as well in many cases.
The dissimilarity between the iPad and those devices used to compare it to is due to what can be accomplished with the iPad and cannot be accomplished by using other devices.
To begin with, it is very transportable, meaning it can be picked up easily. It fits like it was made for your lap. You can give it to other people as if it were a book. You can easily place it on a coffee table. You can leave it in a small bag. You can one hand it and use it to read on a train or plane. I think by now, you understand what it can do for you.

The answer can be discovered when looking at Apple's capabilities When it cameto their version of the Tablet computer, Apple had all the technology advancements to make it work. It's displaytechnology is very advanced. It has no equal in low power engineering that other companies envy.
