The company usually introduce products with the perfection of an Olympic diver. However, this time it halted production of the white iPhone even before it hit store shelves.

Fierce tablet war is going on between IT providers, with various kinds of mobile device introduced by different developers. BlackBerry is going to introduce higher-end models that will support 4G connectivity in all the different flavors the various wireless carriers currently offer.

However, the release of Research in Motion’s BlackBerry PlayBook tablet was postponed by about one month from the original schedule, possibly due to the high customer demand for the iPad 2. According to DigiTimes, it is indicated that PlayBook shipments were delayed in software testing as well as shortage of touch panels as Apple already booked up most of the capacity available on the market place.

With cash reserves of $50 billion, Apple is capable of pre-ordering the components it needs for its popular devices, such as the iPad and iPhone lines. It is said that the IT giant have put down $3.9 billion to reserve a significant portion of the world’s touch screens in preparation for production of the new iPad. For companies hoping to compete with Apple’s iPad and iPad 2, this will be the latest round of bad news.

Is iPad really your favor?

June 8, 2010 By admin Leave a Comment

Apple’s iPad is a “digital books reader” that is seen throughout the media industry as invested with almost magical powers. Newspaper bosses are starting to treat it as a way to persuade readers to pay for digital content, with Rupert Murdoch – who according to one biographer, is never seen unattended on the Internet – giving it devoted adoration.

Apple iPad Magazine editors have discussed the possibility of premium interactive glossy editions to convince the advertisers to keep spending. Many publishers are unconvinced that that the iPad is the gadget to keep the industry profitable in the future however. The iPad does appear poised to take on Amazon as a major player in digital publishing. At the moment only free and out of copyright books are available, this is shortly to change with the introduction of major publishing houses.

The device has had a conservative welcome from the Publishers Association, whose chief executive has been open to the contribution of the iPad, stating that it offers more choice to consumers and opens the market to competition in what has been a traditionally restrictive market.

This is good for children – but when it comes to adults, is it really iPad meant for books? I tried to read one on the device and I am still torn about his attractions. Apple’s new baby is a brilliant, if expensive, multimedia device, which could revolutionize book market, but it’s superiority to the printed page is yet to be determined.
