The iPad weighs about 1.5 pounds, is 0.5 inch thin, has a 9.7-inch display and should
have a battery life of 10 hours. It uses what is called Apple's own 1GHz A4 chip, and
flash memory, ranging from 16 to 64 gigabytes. The tablet has YouTube in high-definition built in to the iPad and Apple's online iTunes Store, which will add an "iBooks" for purchase.
The iPad will cost $499 for a 16-gigabyte model, $599 for a 32 GB version and $699 for a 64-gigabyte model with Wi-Fi only, and will be available in 60 days. It will cost an additional $130 for units that also can use 3G, which should be out in 90 days, making the most expensive model $829.
The tablet uses multi-touch finger gestures and swipes like the iPhone, but the iPad's "larger screen requires less swiping to navigate," "That's a big plus from the iPhone."
So far it really looks like an oversized iPod Touch," blogging from the event itself for Reuters news service.
