If you didn’t catch Apple’s big event this morning, well the full video coverage is now available online in  low, medium and hi res. Go ahead fanboys, check it out and relive the moments again if you’ve already watched it live somewhere.
Take a gander at how Steve has unveiled Apple’s latest product. How did he refer to the iPad again? – “a magical and revolutionary device at an unbelievable price” and ” The best way to experience web, email, photos and video.” I’m pretty sure none of us will agree to those two statements. But hey, it’s a marketing campaign, so what can you expect?
And if you have no idea what the iPad is made of, here’s a quick rundown of its specs:
- 9.7-inch (diagonal) LED-backlit glossy widescreen Multi-Touch display with IPS technology
- 1024-by-768-pixel resolution at 132 pixels per inch (ppi)
- Fingerprint-resistant oleophobic coating
- Support for display of multiple languages and characters simultaneously
- 1GHz Apple A4 custom-designed, high-performance, low-power system-on-a-chip
- Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Optional 3G
What? You’re not impressed? How about full support for existing iPhone/iPod apps? iTunes connectivity and media management? Or perhaps its best feature (IMHO) – the iBooks application. It will allow you to purchase e-books from various major publishers and read them of course on the iPad.
Alright, alright. You are probably not impressed.  Just be contented with the fact that Steve has just  given us big boys a new toy to play with until we grow tired of  it.
Before I forget, here are the links to the videos of this morning’s Apple Event. Enjoy!
