This sounds a lot like the functionality of the iPhone. Yes, iPad has a gorgeous screen, yes it has great graphics and fast hardware, however, the software base for the iPad (iPhone) OS does not meet the quality of the hardware along with small yet significant misjudgments in the realm of using stylus vs multi-touch, or perhaps both. I am a science major, I was eager to get my hands on this device for note taking, bigger datebook, etc. After testing the iPad at the local apple store, I found that I would be doing the same exact things that I would be doing on the iPhone, since I could not take effective notes using a stylus or a hardware keyboard for that matter. Since I read the general consensus that Pogo stylus stinks for writing due to mushy cumbersome pen tip, the iPad ranks poorly for education. If you are a media junky--I admit I am--you seem better to stick with the iPhone, unless you are willing to pony up 5 bills for a big screen.</p><p>Sadly, the iPad, after trying it out and doing research online, is an imbalanced product with overall great hardware, despite the lack of a stylus, and inferior, unrevolutionary software beyond the already-known genius of the iPhone. I am taking a hard look at the Asus Eee PC T101MT to meet my note-taking needs at the moment. </p>ThomasG33KWed, 07 Apr 2010 15:43:49 -0000http://geeknizer.com/ipad-vs-iphone#comment-43534648<p>While it makes me cringe, the first video with the ipad stress tests was well done. Epic lulz at the beginning for sure. :D</p>ThomasG33KTue, 06 Apr 2010 16:13:03 -0000https://blog.dropbox.com/2008/06/some-spring-cleaning/#comment-824226<p>Sent!
