How Tablets Looked Before and After the iPad
Since Apple introduced the iPad in January of 2010, the rest of its competition has been trying desperately to play catch-up. If you’re curious, here’s how tablet design looked before and after the iPad was introduced. As you can see it’s pretty self-explanatory. Apple innovated, everyone else reiterated.

Amazing but sad.
“During the June quarter, Apple sold 9.2 million iPads for $6 billion in revenue. During that period, it sold 3.9 million Macs for $5.1 billion in revenue.”
Apple offers possible solutions for iPad WiFi problems
If you are experiencing consistent problems, Apple offers a number of potential fixes that range from the obvious to the truly bizarre. Among the possible solutions listed are updating your router’s firmware, using WPA or WPA2 instead of WEP encryption, renewing the iPad’s IP address, toggling WiFi off and on, or increasing your screen brightness.
Though we aren’t sure why adjusting screen brightness would have any effect on the iPad’s WiFi connection, anything is worth a shot. If the brightness trick doesn’t work, however, try scaring your iPad, have it drink a glass of water as fast as possible, or have the tablet hold its breath and count to 10.

Some people seem to think life is all about the I, and the Me, Me, Me.
We beg to differ. To us, the power of many beats the power of one. That’s why we came up with the WePad: It’s the smarter solution for enjoying the Internet your way. Why? Because when you’re locked in, you get the Internet their way. It’s the opposite of free. Being told what you can see, what you can buy, and all the things you can not do – somehow, that just seems so 1984.
Fantastic copy / marketing language. Throwing 1984 back in Apple’s face is brilliant. The royal we really hope this thing is real. Apparently, there are doubts.
Heh.
