This Penguin's Experiences

Saturday, April 10, 2010

We have successfully migrated from the FTP posting service to the custom domain service from the folks over at Blogger. I am now doing posts from the iPad. I have had it for a week and it works great. Waiting for the apps to support it has been the most difficult part. I use the iPad just like any other computer: browsing the web, watching Netflix shows and movies, posting tweets via Twitteriffic, listening to music via Pandora or iPod functions. I keep it on my lap and in landscape mode the most. The interesting part of the base install is that Apple did not include iBooks by default, it had to be installed from ten app store after the first sync to the computer. iPhone apps work well on the device but are not aware of the new screen size.. There is a 2x button that gives you a supersized view of the application but it is very pixelated. Battery life is amazing. I am getting between 14 and 16 hours with moderate usage. It does drop fast when streaming video but still well over the 10 hours that Apple promised. I am definitely happy with my purchase. I think I will be looking for a case of some sort before traveling with it and a dock to be able to use it as a picture frame will be cool.

  • So what are your favorite apps? I have not found too many that I am impressed with as most apps are either made for the iPhone or not necessarily important to me. Love iBooks though!
