IPad, makes you wonder, what the hell is happening to the technology world? The new Apple release consists of an immense Itouch IPod, which was inconveniently named an IPad. Leaving the mayor naming mistake aside, one can find several things that don’t make sense. For starters, why buy a maxi Itouch for the price of 500$ when you can just waste your money in any other useless tool? This device, does offer a somewhat of an “advanced” Itouch revolution, yet it is not 500$ worth of advances. The concept could be good but the execution is poor, the light design and good confection of the device does not prove anything as far as functioning.

First Error: The design. Who in the world would like to type looking downward and not have the freedom of moving the screen and the keyboard separate ways.

Second Error: The lack of freedom. Not only does the MaxiPad device have almost the exact same functions as the regular Itouch, but it limits the browser to the predetermined one, goodbye options. You might Jailbreak it, but how long till such genius shortcut is invented. Not friendly at all. Word, Photobooth, and other sweet options that regular MACs offer are not included in this release. For users that are into business and school, If I where you, I would get myself a more complete gadget.

Third Error: Sucks that besides paying 500$ you might also spend the same amount for adapters and cables for you to use on the “computer”. How much of a failure can it be, that it doesn’t even have a USB port.

Fourth Error: People do many things at once: Scratch that, you may not multitask with IPad.

Fifth Error: Clean hands. It is basic hygiene for us to have clean hands, but first time users of the IPad said that even after the first use the screen was filled with finger prints. If something as simple and un-harmful as fingerprints makes the device dirty imagine keeping it clean.

Touch screen items might seem cool, but as a touch user I found out that if you use it a lot the sensor may loose its “power”. I am not saying that this applies for this item but as a user of a touch device with this malfunction, I can offer this warning.

2 words: Screw it! Save yourself from a mayor burden and buy something useful.
