1 minute 30 with the iPad

Apple, Moodle Add comments

We’ve just received the iPad at Moodle. I’ve played one minute with it. My first feelings are:
* Browsing the web is awesome specially with a the big virtual keyboard.
* If on iPhone I didn’t care about Flash, I’ve been little frustrated to not be able to play my blog videos.
* Some javascript will need to be modified all over the web to match touch screen UI (like voting stars).
* As empty of software as the iPad was, when I first ran the iPod app, it took 2 seconds to launch. A bit strange…
* Waiting for testing a bit more the device :)

    I’ve been testing the thing a bit more, the whole experience was smoothly. I was very disappointed to learn that all Apple Office app are not free. They worth AUD$13 each.
    The ebooks look better that I though, and the large screen make the device perfect for any web reading.

    I’m still waiting to see if it’s a good device for blogging. I’ll probably buy the second generation if it comes with the front camera, as it would be awesome for video chat with my parents :) Can’t wait to have one :)
