2nd Generation iPad
The new iPad is here and it is better than ever! It's lighter, thinner and faster! If you haven't purchased an iPad yet, now is the time to get one. The iPad isn't just a big iPhone. It is a
computer that will revolutionize how we use computers from now on. This iPad has 2 cameras, one in the back and one in the front. The front facing camera is for FaceTime, Apples video conferencing software. You can talk to any iPhone 4 or iPad 2 user over Wi-Fi and they will not only hear what you are saying, they will see you too. Some day all our calls to each other will be over the internet with both face and voice. Get use to it. The rear facing camera is for recording video. It's not that great as a still camera but for moving pictures, it works just fine. Don't believe me? Watch this music video filmed entirely with the iPad 2.
Music Video. The new iMovie App for the iPad is astounding! Now you can create, edit, and post your video to YouTube all with just your iPad. Need a sound track? Create it yourself with the GarageBand App for the iPad. It's not hard! The iPad is so easy to use, even a baby can do it. Really! Watch Bridger use his iPad.
Baby using iPad. The iPad 2 comes in black or white and starts at $499. I have the Verizon 3G model and just love it! I can use my iPad 2 anywhere and watch a movie on it without it being herky, jerky like my AT&T iPad. I'm never coming up for air now! Want more information on the iPad 2? Come to our Mac Users Group meeting on April 5th and I'll show you. If you can't make it, click here for more info.
iPad 2. Because of the earthquake in Japan and high demand, there is a month long wait for the new iPad, so order yours today!
