What’s Lacking in iPad ?
Only 24 hours back, Apple unveiled its proud product iPad. The iPad is a sleek, powerful device that will surely create massive lines on launch day. While it has several amazing features for its users. there are certain important one that are missing altogether:
Here are just a few of the features that won’t be found on the Apple tablet:
- Camera: There is no front-facing camera for video conferencing, and there is no back-facing camera for taking photos. This is a major omission from the device. Hell, most netbooks and smartphones have a camera or two.
- Multitasking: You cannot run multiple apps at the same time. To make this a useful device, it needs to be able to do things like run Last.fm while tweeting. This is one we hope Apple will fix with a future iPhone OS update, but for now it can’t run multiple apps.
- HDMI Output: You can’t plug your iPad into your TV.
- No USB port: You can’t plug in your favorite keyboard into the device…or anything else. It will plug into your computer via the same cord you charge iPhones and iPod touches with.
We’re a lot disappointed at of the things that were excluded from this device. Gizmodo has also a list of other things the iPad doesn’t include, but pointed out this: It’s a first generation device, and it’s not going to include a lot of the things we want. Having said this, make sure you know the drawbacks before buying.
