Times newsreader for iPad Wow, this is another fantastic aggregator like Flipboard that allows one to read a variety of feeds on an iPad in a well designed format. The nice thing about Times is that there will be a Macintosh version of it too. I hope they sync with one another… wouldn’t that be [...]

Interview: Author Susan Orlean on her life with the iPad I’ve been reading Susan Orlean since she started writing for The New Yorker. She really goes into detail on how she integrates these devices (iPad, iPhone, iMac) into her life as a professional writer. [via Daring Fireball]

Flipboard Stumbles in Its First Days Flipboard, maybe the first killer app for the iPad has gotten off to a rocky start and I have to say, I’ve been considering getting an iPad just to run it (it looks that good to me). I hope they get over the bumps and succeed, they have a [...]

BlindType vows to autocorrect all wrongs with your iPhone or Android virtual keyboard Wow, this is an impressive system: forgiving of “fat fingers” and amazing word prediction. It looks like it won’t play nice with the iOS built in keyboard but maybe someday it will or maybe Apple will simply buy them. BlindType

Flipboard may very well be the killer app for the iPad. It’s the ultimate aggregator and content presenter for everything you track: The New York Times, Facebook, Twitter, blogs with RSS feeds, everything with a feed. Robert Scoble interviews Fliboard CEO, Mike McCue and once they get into the meat of the app it’s worth [...]

Digitimes reports: Apple readies 11.6-inch MacBook Air and new iPod touch. Wouldn’t it be interesting if this new version of the MacBook Air was an iPad with a folding keyboard. Run iOS and put a multi-touch screen on it and lose the trackpad and you have it. Sell it for under $1000. Better yet, allow [...]

The iPad Keyboard Dock Works With the iPhone 3GS If you read both Andy’s notes and the comments below, you’ll note that this does not work with the iPhone 3G running iOS4. Not a deal breaker for me as my 3G will go to Anne who won’t care about this. As a (hopefully) soon to [...]

Joel Johnson at Gizmodo: The iPad Is Such a Great Travel Computer That I’m Selling My Laptop. Interesting. I’ve had the exact opposite reaction: the iPad is a great device but I like physical keyboards that are attached so I’m more in love with my laptop than ever. I might opt for a second laptop [...]

Two Weeks of Travel, Ten iPad Lessons This is a must for anyone thinking of using an iPad instead of a laptop for travel. I find the need for a real keyboard without ever leaving home and I agree on the glossy screen glare issue. [via Daring Fireball]

After using the iPad for a few days including a lot of on-screen typing I’m convinced that for me, the ideal tool would be an iPad with a built-in hardware keyboard, like a MacBook Air minus the touchpad. Important fact: I’m a touch typist. I use all of my fingers and keep my eyes on [...]

Get Your eBook in the Apple iBookstore This is a fascinating post and the comment thread is excellent as well, especially Marc’s posted on April 4th. It’s going to take a bit of time for this to sort out but when it does I think it’s going to be quite a great thing for self-published [...]

I knew it was just a matter of time before I bought an iPad although I thought it would be a bit more time, like maybe a year so I could get version two. At the same time that I’ve learned about the technical intricacies of computers I’ve gotten the most out of them when [...]

iPad Could Be A Beneficial Device For The Disabled I’d change the title of the piece: The iPad IS a beneficial device for people with disabilities. I’m quite sure that my friend David Niemeijer is hard at work redoing his… wait, he’s already done it. As is stated in the piece, when you walk around [...]

Apple Against the World Jason Snell, editor of MacWorld Magazine gives an excellent overview of the political and technical backstory on Apple’s release of iPhone 4.0, Apple’s stance on Adobe Flash on it’s iPhone and iPad, and more. Apple is definitely squaring off with Google and Adobe. Frankly, Snell makes the points better than Apple [...]
