The built in applications for ipads have specifically been designed to take advantage of the large multi touch screen. The mail is particularly easy to work on as you get a split screen with half for the text, and the bottom half for the on screen touch keyboard.
The i-pad app that is very popular is one for photos, which you can arrange as you please, to browse or flip through or have slideshows. You can even display them to look like they are framed in the ipad. Apple apps for watching HD movies, music videos and games are for all the fun stuff.
- Apple iBook is one of my favorite applications for ipads.
- The free Kindle iPod app gives access to thousands of books and magazines and has Whispersync technology to automatically synchronize the last page you read. It bookmarks and highlights for you.
- If you love reading you will derive great pleasure from this free download app.
- You get to browse a bookstore with hundreds of books from which to choose.
- Tap on the book of your choice and then you will be able to review a free sample of it. If you wish to buy the book you can do so on site, and then download it to the big multi-touch screen.
- Adjust the font size and lighting to suit you and see how easy it is to read a book on the screen.
- You can even curl up in your favorite armchair with your iPad.
- Download apps for various other sites to get books free or for the price of signing up.
The iPad runs the iPhone os applications, which means that you can’t have two ipad apps open at the same time. This is a bit of a drawback as most of us seem to work on more than one app at a time. Sometimes you flip between your mail and a movie or a game, it just seems the way some of us do things. Anyways you will have to stick to one os download at a time. The up side is that iPhone owners now have an os app that is cross compatible with iBook Store. They will now be able to read books on the iPhone. With time these os apps will probably be replaced by new apple mac apps that will be more innovative.
