The new iPad
This is pretty exciting, http://www.apple.com/ipad/ipad-video/#medium. I’ve been following tablet computers since they debuted, watched the first ebook evolve and purchased an iTouch last year. Since I love to photograph, carrying my photos on these types of devices is a treat…to review, to share, to enjoy. I download many applications (apps) that have educational value, assistive technology functions, or are just plain fun.
What I like about this new device is the technology embedded within this sized device that helps an individual read a digital book, watch a video, or view a photo. Equally, if I browse a website that includes technologies that provide further enhancements to the reading experience–such as color highlights, background color changes, or sound–then, I truly have a useful technology that can support so many learners. This seems to far surpass the current ebook readers that are only available in black/white displays. I look forward to a chance to review these more closely!
