First when I heard about Apple iPad from my sister, I am kinda excited to know more about this new stuff from Apple. But since after I surfed the internet, I actually found a blog post at http://ahtim.com saying 10 reasons why he wouldn’t wanna get an iPad as below:
- No USB – can’t attach external hard drive and devices
- No Phone call – not a big deal, but why don’t have?
- No Camera – means no video chat, no photo snapping.
- Not run on Mac OS – can’t install daily use Mac Apps.
- No Multitasking – most concern issue for heavy software user like me.
- No flash – can’t watch Facebook video, no online games.
- No video out – can’t watch video on 32-inches LCD monitor?
- Keyboard difficult to type – iPhone user should know how hard to watch movie or surf net on the bed (hand pain). And imagine can you handle 1kg iPad (include casing) using one hand and type on keyboard one hand to surf Internet for one hour? It will break your hand!
- Low build – in storage – So sad maximum is only 64GB. I thought at least 250GB?
- No DVD/CD media – can’t read data on CD.
And most importantly, I am scared off by the size of the iPad… Hahaha.. Its height is double of an iPhone, and its width is triple of an iPhone.. >.<
