Intelligent application
IPad can be used for interactive learning. After a small-scale experiment at the beginning of 20 12, a city hall in London is going to replace 14000 street lamps with intelligent control bulbs, and the life of street lamps can be monitored by iPad. The project, initiated by Westminster City Hall, plans to install controllable light sources in the next four years. The district promised to spend 3.25 million pounds to replace 65,438+04,000 new street lamps with energy-saving versions. The most attractive thing about these new street lamps is that they are intelligent street lamps. When they need to be repaired or replaced, they have the ability to warn workers through the application of iPad. In addition, technicians can also use applications to control the output of each lamp, further improving efficiency.

A critical voice
ipad 2
The iPad received a lot of criticism as soon as it was released. There are many synthetic photos and funny movies mocking the iPad on the Internet. For example, there are synthetic photos that replace the iPad in Jobs' hand with four iPhones arranged in a "sky" shape, satirizing Jobs' patchwork of iPhones into iPads; Some funny films published sanitary napkins in the name of iPad before it went on the market. Some netizens think that iPad is a waste of everyone's time, so they changed their name to "iLame" (I am lame).
Before the iPAD went on the market, Canadian underwear manufacturer Coconut Grove Intimates had already sold the breast pads named iPAD, stmicroelectronics's iPad tablet computer had registered its trademark in Europe, Fujitsu of Japan sold the handheld POS device "iPad" in 2002, and Fujitsu claimed to have registered the trademark "iPad" in the United States in 2003. Julong Brothers Industrial Co., Ltd. in Shenzhen, China announced that as early as August 2009, it launched the mobile phone "P88" which looks like an enlarged version of iPhone, and released it at IFA in Berlin. Michael shields, a financial columnist of Los Angeles Times, believes that iPad is not revolutionary, which is far from the market expectation and does not pose a fatal threat to Amazon Kindle.
Miyazaki Hayao, a Japanese animation master, said in an interview with the media that it made him feel uncomfortable to see a lot of people using iPad on trams as if they were masturbating.
The voice of praise
2065438+July 2002 BusinessInsider, an American technology blog site, last week selected ten most important electronic products so far in this century, and four Apple products, such as iPhone, iPad, ios operating system and iPod, were on the list.
Advantages of iPad
Various input methods and good mobility. Because iPad tablet computer is no longer limited to the fixed input mode of keyboard and mouse, it can be operated by handwriting and touch, so it can be operated whether standing or moving. If it is a pure flat plate, it can be made thinner and lighter, so the mobility is better.

Full-screen touch, better human-computer interaction. Using keyboard and mouse input on computer is actually a compromise of human-computer interaction. Imagine if we drag and drop the window with one finger and enlarge or reduce the photo with two fingers. Isn't it more in line with our actual behavior habits? And all this can be achieved on the full touch screen of the iPad tablet.
Hand reading can be used as an e-book. IPad tablet computers, especially pure tablet computers, are relatively light in size and weight, and people can operate them directly in their hands, thus changing people's habit of reading on computers. There are already dual-screen tablets suitable for reading. Handwriting recognition, convenient text input. IPad can input words and drawings with a stylus like a PDA, and also supports digital ink technology: the shape of words input by a user's stylus does not need to be converted into text, just like words written on paper with an ordinary pen, which greatly improves work efficiency.
Although it still has a thin body, its endurance is not inferior. Apple officially promotes that the iPad can last up to 10 hour in normal web browsing, but from the test of Wi-Fi 16GB version, the actual use can reach 1 1.5~ 12 hours. This is very good.
Disadvantages of iPad
If the excellent performance of iPhone and iPad makes Apple's arrogance almost beyond reproach, then the unsatisfactory iPad will inevitably fall into reality. Charlie sorrell, an IT product analyst of Wired, a famous American IT magazine, immediately listed the ten missing functions of the iPad: no flash, no OLED screen, no USB interface, no GPS function, no multitasking function, no keyboard, no camera, no Verizon as a mobile operator, no screen ratio of 16: 9, and no high-definition multimedia interface. For users who are used to opening browser, email, Twitter, RealPlayer and Word documents at the same time, the iPad without multitasking function is at best a large Kindle.
