iPad & art
Well the iPad does not meet my hopes. Not sure even a 2nd gen would do that. I think the philosophy might be flawed. Sad!
- Not pressure sensitive. Maybe someone will build it into a pen?
- No Camera
- No Usb (no mouse? would it take the magic mouse? or do I need to get over the mouse thing?
- No removable battery (limiting trips into the hills)
- Not a great processor (Lag in painting aps?)
- No multi tasking (Not all that bad, most things are tabs on the browser anyway, but does not bode well for art, so I can have various art apps open)
- No stylus option (maybe it could be 3rd party?)
- Lousy name (it is unaesthetic, too close to iPod, not like Apple!)
(But it can import photos.)
It is not as good as a netbook for work, not as good as a Windows Tablet for art, what are they thinking?
I’ll stick with my iPhone for reading books too, best e-reader I’ve had.
Makes me think I’ll look into a Toshiba Tablet and run Windows 7 when this M200 has had it, but it is still OK!
