My New i-Pad

Technology has come a long long way in the past decade. I sometimes wonder what we all did before there were smart phones. This Christmas I got my wife a new tablet, that is what she said she wanted. About two years ago she wanted a new laptop so I got her a really nice one and she loves it, but then the tablets came along. Some of her friends have these tablets and she got to messing around with one and suddenly realized just how "trick" these little gadgets were. There are many tablets out there in many different price ranges, one to suit just about every level or desire. I have a new i-Pad and it is truly an amazing device, takes a little getting use to but once you figure it out it is oh so easy to use. So, I get my wife a new tablet and I take it home to wrap it for Christmas and realize I need wrapping paper, tape, and a nice bow. I leave the tablet at home and go back to get these items. While I am gone my wife comes home and finds the new tablet. Well you can guess what happens next. She has been on that thing for hours and hours. She is really happy and says she loves it. I guess it really does not matter if she gets it now or on Christmas morning, the important thing is that I was able to give her something she really wanted and liked.
 
Join the crowd. I just got mine Wednesday. I went in to get a Galaxy,came out with the IPad.

I was not crazy about the laptop. Next will come the touch screen for my PC because I still like that. Do not care if it is going the way of the dodo bird.

Now Apple has sued because of patent infringement.
 
Tablet technology isn't really new. Tablets have been around for many years. Tablets just needed a huge marketing campaign to make them "cool". Apple provided that with the release of the iPad. Apple has always been more of a marketing company than a technology company. They sell style -- and it ain't cheap. ;)

At least I got the thing on sale, plus I got a free case for it. Still it was pricey, but it was what my wife wanted and she loves it so I don't feel to bad.

Hey, Mary Ann, once I figured out the i-Pad I really like the touch screen too. Plus it is fast and compact easy to navigate. I now take it instead of my bulky lap top. I went the way of the dodo also and so what. I like it and so does my wife, she has not put the thing down except to charge it. She has said over and over, "This is so Cool ". She has loaded about 200 apps already.

Apple has lots of attorneys and lots of money I seriously doubt they have much to really worry about being sued by just about anyone, except the government.

Apple recently prevailed in a lawsuit against Samsung for making a smart phone that had a rectangular shape. Apple claims a patent on rectangles with rounded corners.

Yeah, I figured that out, Apple claims to own a shape, a rectangle with rounded corners. I guess if you have billions you can do pretty much whatever. I do not understand how someone can have a patient on a shape. But hell what do I know.
 
Mine was on sale,same price as the Galaxy,the new one,paid for the cover,but had one of the last Gift certificatws Dave gave out. Been in my bill fold for ever1:eek:) The IPad is easier than the Galaxy,according to the Sales person.

What he really meant was I could use it! I know what he was saying.

Not really. He may be right:eek:)

No,he asked who it was for,my Son pointed at me. Not to worry,I have a few computer whizzes in the family. Just not me.

My Son got a new 3D TV,but there is much not in 3D yet,but he loves his gadgets,just like me.

I like games too Mary Ann, I am a big Angry Birds fan, aside from chess and playing cards that is about all I play. My wife is more into social media networks like facebook and twitter plus of course online shopping, crafts and sewing.
