Apple iPad review

Apple iPad review

Apple iPad

It’s been rumored about for years. It was speculated that it carried various names. The idea was even tried by the company many years ago and it failed. However,  known for revolutionizing the music and mobile phone industry, Apple set it sight on another market, aiming to achieve similar success. On January 27th, they revealed their latest creation, the Apple iPad. Initial reaction was very split, you either hated it or you couldn’t wait to get one. Many criticized the thing for it’s lack of an SD card slot, a USB port, a camera, and the obvious miss of leaving a camera off. Of course this wouldn’t be an Apple product if they gave us everything we ask for on a first gen device.

Fast forward a few months and the iPad has finally been released to the public and on the first day of launch, Apple managed to squeeze out 300,000 units. Wether the launch number can be viewed as a success or not, selling 300,000 units of anything is quite impressive, especially on the first day alone. Here at Tech Kritik, we got a 64GB model and have been testing this baby out day and night.

Well, that’s exactly what Google did today with the release of Google Chrome. Based on the Safari web-kit, Google Chrome is very speedy and lightweight.
