Everything iPad Week in Review — Week 15 2010

Posted 18 April 2010 | By Evan Selleck | Categories: archive | No Comments

Welcome to another edition of Everything iPad’s week in review. It’s been a pretty intense week, with the iPad catching some major flack for WiFi inconsistencies. Along with a few fun stories, it seems that the iPad isn’t going to leave the consumer’s attention any time soon. And we can’t help but think that’s a [...]

George Washington and Princeton University Ban the iPad

Posted 16 April 2010 | By Evan Selleck | Categories: archive | No Comments

Well, we didn’t see this coming. While some universities are busy handing out iPads to be explicitly connected to their student’s livelihood, it seems that some of the largest universities in the United States have turned the other cheek, and have actually banned the iPad from their wireless networks.

Steve Jobs Handles PR in His Own Way

Posted 16 April 2010 | By Evan Selleck | Categories: archive | No Comments

On Wednesday, we told you that international shipments for the iPad were going to be delayed for a month. There was verbiage in there that would probably upset any European future customer, but apparently Steve Jobs wants to make sure everyone understands that, despite popular belief, that he and his company are doing everything humanly [...]

Wired iPad App Will Use Flash

Remember, back at the beginning of March, we brought you that story, saying that the publisher Conde Nast would support the iPad by bringing several different printed magazines to the digital realm. And, in that story, we said that the major publisher was going to see where the Adobe/Apple war went, as Adobe’s Flash Player [...]

iPad WiFi problem due to poor DHCP management?

Posted 16 April 2010 | By Chris Davies | Categories: archive | No Comments

Intermittent WiFi problems have been the thorn in many iPad owners’ sides since the tablet first began shipping, but so far Apple haven’t been able to address the issue.  Now Princeton University’s IT department has stepped in with a possible explanation, and according to them it’s not the iPad hardware that’s at fault but iPhone [...]

iPad Gaining Ground in Online Usage

Posted 15 April 2010 | By Evan Selleck | Categories: archive | No Comments

There’s a few ways that people, and analysts, weigh the popularity and success of a certain device. And in today’s age, keeping track of the online usage of these devices is just as good a way as anything else. In fact, it might be better. And if a recent report from NetApplications means anything to [...]

iPad Camera Kit Able to do More Than Add Pictures?

Posted 15 April 2010 | By Evan Selleck | Categories: archive | 1 Comment

When the iPad was announced, and everyone found out that there wasn’t a USB port on the new tablet from Apple, a lot of people got all up-in-arms about it. Yes, we can see why people would be upset about that, but there might (and we stress the word might, here) be a light at [...]

Cat Plays iPad Games Better Than We Do [Video]

We don’t mean that the cat may have any better technical skills than us (at least, we don’t think we mean that), but we are definitely going to admit that this cat is having a lot more fun playing these applications on the iPad than we ever would. And hey, if you’ve got a cat [...]

iPad Being Blocked From Israel

Posted 14 April 2010 | By Evan Selleck | Categories: archive | No Comments

Looks like the iPad isn’t as loved everywhere around the world as he had originally imagined. According to a report from Haaretz, the Irsraeli Communications Ministry has taken a very harsh approach to the new tablet from Apple. So much so, in fact, that if you were planning to head over to Israel any time [...]

ABC iPad App Doing Well for Itself

Posted 14 April 2010 | By Evan Selleck | Categories: archive | 1 Comment

When it comes to streaming TV shows on the iPad, ABC has a bit of a monopoly going on right now. And it seems to be working really well for them. Since the launch of the iPad, just over ten days ago (has it already been ten days?), they’ve logged a ridiculous amount of numbers [...]

Vodafone & O2 UK promise special iPad 3G plans at launch [Update: Orange too]

Posted 14 April 2010 | By Chris Davies | Categories: archive | 1 Comment

The iPad’s international launch may have been pushed back a month, but the UK carriers are seeing that – or, more likely, Apple’s confirmation of the May 10th preorder kick-off – as an excuse to start talking about their “dedicated iPad pricing plans”.  Both Vodafone UK and O2 UK have announced that they will be [...]
