The Apple iPad
Apple’s iPad tablet is a good looking, multi-purpose e-reader but it is no Kindle slayer, say publishing executives and electronic-book enthusiasts. Instead the iPad is likely to raise the stakes and help traditional e-readers evolve into more sophisticated devices.
Apple iPad’s best feature is its gorgeous 9.7-inch touchscreen display, which uses liquid crystal display technology to present a vivid image and a wide viewing angle.
The iPad’s display uses the same capacitive touchscreen technology as the iPhone and iPod Touch, while offering a better picture quality than conventional LCDs.
