Is Apple iPad worth to buy?


That's really thick !!!

Here it is folks, the Apple iPad. The screen is gorgeous, tilting is responsive, and the thing is super thin. Still, if you've used the iPhone before -- and you can see the two devices side-by-side here -- there's not a lot of surprises here so far. Here are some initial thoughts on the iPad:

  1. It's not light. It feels pretty weighty in your hand.
  2. The screen is stunning, and it's 1024 x 768. Feels just like a huge iPhone in your hands.
  3. The speed of the CPU is something to be marveled at. It is blazingly fast from what we can tell. Webpages loaded up super fast, and scrolling was without a hiccup. Moving into and out of apps was a breeze. Everything flew. 
  4. There's no multitasking at all. It's a real disappointment. All this power and very little you can do with it at once. No multitasking means no streaming Pandora when you're working in Pages... you can figure it out. It's a real setback for this device.
  5. The ebook implementation is about as close as you can get to reading without a stack of bound paper in your hand. The visual stuff really helps flesh out the experience. It may be just for show, but it counts here.
  6. No camera. None, nada. Zip. No video conferencing here folks. Hell, it doesn't have an SMS app!
  7. It's running iPhone OS 3.2.
  8. The keyboard is good, not great. Not quite as responsive as it looked in the demos.
No Flash confirmed. So Hulu is out for you, folks!
The things that really sucks from my opinion is :
  1. No camera on iPad
  2. Memory capacity 16,32 and 64 GB only. Come on, this is not 2009 ? iPod Touch 3rd Gen got more higher capacity. Apple want to play marketing strategy there just like they doing on iPhone right now. 2megapixel,3megapixel where other phone standard is already 5megapixel with Xenon flash already.
  3. I'm wondering how to play games on iPad, you might drop it because of its weight.
  4. No multitasking. What the fish?
  5. OS still stuck on 3.1.2. Where OS 4.0?
  6. Price quite expensive.$499 for 16GB, 32GB for $599, and $699 64GB. Adding 3G costs a $130 per model, so the most expensive model (64GB / 3G) is $829.
  7. Flash still not supported. This is funny
