The $399 iPad 2 Has Better Battery Life
4 May 2012 | 8:27 amA particular variant of the lower priced iPad 2s sold by Apple might have a better battery life due to the chip used, reports Anandtech. But it could be difficult to find, and one needs to open the box to be sure if that is the right variant. “”The iPad 2,4’s gains in battery life…are significant. We measured a 15% increase in our web browsing battery life, a nearly 30% increase in gaming battery life and an 18% increase in video playback battery life” compared to the iPad 2 with the older A5 chip, according to Anandtech. Finding one of these iPad 2,4 variants is… -

The most obvious way is to understand how many apps on an average, were downloaded by each person. So the number of iOS devices out there is in the range of 275 million. So we know, each device has had an average download of about 90 apps. which we know, could be wrong, even when you consider a bell curve scenario. Where is the catch?” Source: Statspotting -

Well, not the device of course, just the casing. “Today the Apple rumor mill is fixated on a photo doing the rounds which allegedly shows the back housing of the next iPad (the iPad 3, or iPad HD, depending on who you talk to). The image, which surfaced on the Repair Labs Blog, is said to be similar to the previous model’s back (that’s the iPad 2 on the left, iPad 3 on the right), save for changes which will allow for a larger battery, slightly reconfigured logic…

The Apple/Google war rages on; manifests itself in Maps
15 May 2012 | 2:01 amSome things have started to change since the passing of Steve Jobs (witness the Apple dividend) but others not only remain the same, they rage on and even accelerate. Like the holy war between Apple and Google.Jobs was known to have a chip on his shoulder about Android, claiming that Google unceremoniously stole it from Apple. Biographer Walter Isaacson had this doozy of a quote in Steve Jobs:I will spend my last dying breath if I need to, and I will spend every penny of Apple’s $40 billion in the bank, to right this wrong. I’m going to destroy Android, because it’s a stolen… -

Top iPhone News: Apple is beginning to reduce the production of the iPhone 4S in preparation of the iPhone 5
15 May 2012 | 11:20 pmApple has made the analysts believe that they are slowing down the production of the current iPhone 4S model to prepare the retail shelves for the upcoming iPhone 5. This is the same plan of preparation that Apple did before the release of the iPhone 4S and since the iPhone 5 is expected to be released this October it comes as no surprise. This big gap in-between iPhone launch’s must mean big things are in store for both the consumer and Apple. I am pretty confident there will be changes to the design of the iPhone, it will be look like a mini version of the iPad with the slightly… -
iPhone 5: The Rumors, The Design, The Hype
11 May 2012 | 5:41 pmThere are a bunch of iPhone 5 rumors floating around the internet lately. Despite what you have read or what you have been told, Apple has still not finalized the design of the new iPhone 5. No larger screen, no metal back and no 16:9 aspect ratio is to be expected as of right now, that does not mean Apple won’t change it on a whim. There is currently a new smaller dock connector being tried out on the prototype but the screen size, the aspect ratio and the home button have remained the same. Apple has made it clear that if the screen size does happen to increase with the new iPhone 5,… -

Better, Cranking and Quitting
2 May 2012 | 9:53 pmApologies in advance to Mr. Merlin Mann for riffing on two of his great essays[1] in titling this post, but the lawyerly-but-overused “Diddy, Cheatem & Howe” didn’t really fit the theme. More on that in a minute, but first a little iPad exercise, an announcement and finally another iPad tip. A couple weeks ago I wrote about a couple practitioners who enjoy huge gains in productivity and effectiveness in their practice using a very small number of iPad apps. As I mentioned then, my experience is similar. I suspect 95% or more of my work on the iPad is accomplished using… -

More on CloudOn
9 Mar 2012 | 9:00 amAs I mentioned before, I’ve been following the progress of CloudOn, the virtual Microsoft Office solution for the iPad. With rumors of a true Microsoft Office suite coming to the iPad, I wonder how virtual solutions like this will fare in the face of that competition. I’m hopeful the competition will be good for both apps. I find myself using CloudOn when I need to work on something that is already formatted as a Word document. At this stage in my workflow, the formatting matters and the WYSIWYG view of your document in CloudOn is simply superior to apps like Documents to Go,… -

I wanted to see how these lawyers were using the iPad so I could tailor my presentation to their work. The small firm I met with had recently implemented an almost completely paperless workflow. They used iPads almost exclusively when presenting at hearings. They were readers of Tabletlegal and other legal/tech blogs, had heard my prior presentations about using the iPad and one had even attended TECHSHOW. In other words, these lawyers were not technophobes nor new to the iPad. We talked a little bit…

Using the iPad to audio record the meeting and take notes at the same time
14 May 2012 | 7:54 amFrom time to time, we used to use our iPhone’s built in app to record short meetings. Everyone gets in a hurry and we gradually stop. Last week we were reminded of the need when reviewing several people’s notes that had differing opinions on the talking points and take aways. A recording would have really cut the after meeting discussions down. One issue used to be that recording with the iPhone meant the device wasn’t able to be used for other things. Running an app like the free Recording Pro has solved that problem. Recording Pro will let the iPad record the meeting in… -

A month ago, we all started talking about them ‘word clocks’ we were seeing around town. There was even a kit to build one, all it took was a lot of time and a steady hand and some electronic stuff. Several of the team had good intentions, but the kits continue to be a box of parts looking for a less busy Saturday. Lucky us, the Time in Words has come to the iPad. Of course, with a lot more features than the light up box… -
Portable paper and photo scanner with a iPad doc… all in one
13 May 2012 | 8:28 amMany long years ago, everyone in our office had a PaperPort hooked up to their Mac desktops. If anyone gave you a piece of paper, you just pushed the paper into the entry area and the scanner gobbled it up, resulting in a image on the screen that we could file away in a folder, email, insert into a document… even sometimes we would print it later. The important part was no one every lost the paper on someone else’s desk. There are options on the market now that have replaced the old wire and specialized plug with USB and even wireless.

9 May 2012 | 11:17 amApple have designed the iPad to be easy to use, in fact even a two year old can use this device without any problems whatsoever. This makes it a very attractive option for people who are used to using an iPhone or for those who are not. However, there are still a few things about the device that do need a little bit of explaining. Soft Reset Explained: Although the iPad is pretty robust in so far as there are not actual moving parts in it, there are still a few things that can go wrong. With this in mind Apple have incorporated a ‘soft reset’ function into the device. This is… -
Thousands of iPad Apps Is that All it Has to Offer?
8 May 2012 | 11:03 amThe mad rush to get hold of an iPad certainly led a lot of people to believe that this nifty little gadget would put a smart phone to shame. The fact that users would be able to get thousands of apps on their iPad might have had something to do with craze and Apple did make it one of the selling points about the device. Apple marketed the iPad as having specifically designed apps and that these ranged from leisure and educational ones right through to business applications that the average person would not be able to live without. Currently there are more apps being developed for the iPad… -
How Effective is the iPad as a Business Tool?
2 May 2012 | 10:48 amRight from the start the iPad was marketed as one of the best unique devices to be launched on the market. It’s screen size and ability to render amazing images as well as it’s great video playback lives up to this claim. However, there is more to the iPad than just this because the device offers business-savvy users some very interesting apps they can really benefit from.

Microsoft’s Business Email service cannot be ignored and as such Apple would not… -
Apple’s iBook App is Brilliant
1 May 2012 | 10:41 amBy far one of the best features of Apple’s iPad is it’s ability to access thousands of apps. It does have a great multi-orientation interface too but the fact that these apps have been designed for the iPad only means there is very little chance of finding them on any other device other than the iPhone and iPod Touch. The applications cover a wide range of categories from entertainment to business with games, education and sports in between. Apple have thought of just about everything imaginable to be run on the iPad which means whatever a user needs, Apple’s… -
The Downsides to Apple’s iPad
30 Apr 2012 | 10:40 amWhen Apple’s iPad was launched, there were queues of people waiting to get their hands on one. The revolutionary tablet iPad was going to offer people a new device that was going to change their lives. However, a lot of people shrugged at the idea with clear indifference. Many people announced their disappointment at the fact the iPad could not deliver on it’s promises. The two opposing views show just how divided opinions are about the device. First we need to take a look at the things that make the iPad a device that really is not worth buying. Apple are constantly releasing…

This makes New iPad available for its user in 30 countries all total in less than 60 days of launch in the market.

US Postal Service to Ban iPad Shipping Overseas
14 May 2012 | 8:43 pmStarting on May 16 the USPS will ban all international shipments of lithium batteries for safety reasons.

Lithium batteries have been responsible for several fires on passenger airplanes and are blamed for two fatal cargo plane crashes in the past five years. As Fast Company points out, the ban will have the largest impact on military members serving overseas. Although FedEx offers… -

Trucks
3 May 2012 | 5:10 amTrucks is an educational app that allows toddlers and preschoolers to dabble in sequencing, sorting, and problem solving. Your kids will never realize this, though. They’ll be too busy soaping and rinsing a car they’ve just driven through mud, changing flat tires, and dumping dirt from a dump truck. That is, when they’re not playing with the car and truck parade. For a car-crazy kid? Nirvana. Why we like it: Open-ended, imaginative play. Tongue-in-cheek humor. Cute characters. Mellow music (that can be turned off when you’ve had enough). Intuitive, no…

Standzfree review - Could this fantastically flexible iPad stand be an essential accessory?
13 May 2012 | 10:24 amLooking for a suitable object or surface on which to prop up my iPad has become something of habit of mine. The new iPad has almost totally replaced my MacBook for practically all most home computing needs and many of my work computing tasks. Its simple slender design, without the fuss of a laptop's clamshell case or the bulk of a desktop's frame makes for a much more intimate (especially when creating content) and much more zen-like experience. However, there are times when the intimacy of the iPad turns out to be a weakness. Having to constantly hold the iPad with one, and sometimes both… -
