Domani sabato 3 aprile \u00e8 il giorno dell’uscita nei negozi americani dell’Ipad. Qualche contributo sul tema<\/p>\n
Una lista di siti Ipad ready<\/a><\/p>\n I consigli di Apple per realizzare siti compatibili con Ipad<\/a><\/p>\n La recensione <\/a>di David Pogue <\/a>dell’Ipad <\/a>non per nerd <\/a><\/p>\n The Apple iPad is basically a gigantic iPod Touch. The simple act of making the multitouch screen bigger changes the whole experience. Maps become real maps, like the paper ones. Scrabble shows the whole board, without your having to zoom in and out. You see your e-mail inbox and the open message simultaneously. Driving simulators fill more of your field of view, closer to a windshield than a keyhole.<\/p>\n The new iBooks e-reader app is filled with endearing grace notes. For example, when you turn a page, the animated page edge actually follows your finger\u2019s position and speed as it curls, just like a paper page. Font, size and brightness controls appear when you tap. Tap a word to get a dictionary definition, bookmark your spot or look it up on Google<\/a> or Wikipedia<\/a>. There\u2019s even a rotation-lock switch on the edge of the iPad so you can read in bed on your side without fear that the image will rotate.<\/p>\n If you have the cellular model, you can buy AT&T service so you can get online anywhere. (Cellular iPads aren\u2019t available until next month; I tested a Wi-Fi-only model.)<\/p>\n But how\u2019s this for a rare deal from a cell company: there\u2019s no contract. By tapping a button in Settings, you can order up a month of unlimited cellular Internet service for $30. Or pay $15 for 250 megabytes of Internet data; when it runs out, you can either buy another 250 megs, or just upgrade to the unlimited plan for the month. Either way, you can cancel and rejoin as often as you want \u2014 just March, July and November, for example \u2014 without penalty. The other carriers are probably cursing AT&T\u2019s name for setting this precedent.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n La faq su Ipad di David Pogue<\/a><\/p>\n Q, I don\u2019t get it from your column. Should I get the iPad or not?<\/p>\n For the past week or so, I have been testing a sleek, light, silver-and-black tablet computer called an iPad. After spending hours and hours with it, I believe this beautiful new touch-screen device from Apple has the potential to change portable computing profoundly, and to challenge the primacy of the laptop. It could even help, eventually, to propel the finger-driven, multitouch user interface ahead of the mouse-driven interface that has prevailed for decades.<\/p>\n But first, it will have to prove that it really can replace the laptop or netbook for enough common tasks, enough of the time, to make it a viable alternative. And that may not be easy, because previous tablet computers have failed to catch on in the mass market, and the iPad lacks some of the features\u2014such as a physical keyboard, a Webcam, USB ports and multitasking\u2014that most laptop or netbook users have come to expect.<\/p>\n If people see the iPad mainly as an extra device to carry around, it will likely have limited appeal. If, however, they see it as a way to replace heavier, bulkier computers much of the time\u2014for Web surfing, email, social-networking, video- and photo-viewing, gaming, music and even some light content creation\u2014it could be a game changer the way Apple\u2019s iPhone has been.<\/p>\n The iPad is much more than an e-book or digital periodical reader, though it does those tasks brilliantly, better in my view than the Amazon Kindle. And it\u2019s far more than just a big iPhone, even though it uses the same easy-to-master interface, and Apple (AAPL) says it runs nearly all of the 150,000 apps that work on the iPhone. When held horizontally, the iPad\u2019s virtual keyboard is roomy and easy to use.<\/p>\n It\u2019s qualitatively different, a whole new type of computer that, through a simple interface, can run more-sophisticated, PC-like software than a phone does, and whose large screen allows much more functionality when compared with a phone\u2019s. But, because the iPad is a new type of computer, you have to feel it, to use it, to fully understand it and decide if it is for you, or whether, say, a netbook might do better.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n La doppia strategia pay-no pay del NYT<\/a><\/p>\n The New York Times may be preparing to charge a lot for its primary iPad app, but it looks like they\u2019re also willing to provide a limited, free alternative: A New York Times \u201cEditor\u2019s Choice\u201d iPad application that will feature a selected portion of the Times\u2019 content.<\/p>\n At least that\u2019s what one could conclude from the leaked existence of such an app in the iPad\u2019s App Store, which will launch alongside the device itself on Saturday morning. The review site AppAdvice has obtained from Apple servers a list of what it says are all of the iPad apps we\u2019ll see at the launch. The list is a bit of a muddle (lots of repeats), but it also has what appears to be legit screenshots and marketing copy of the iPad apps we\u2019ll be anxious to play with on Saturday. (The screenshots are definitely real; they\u2019re hosted on Apple\u2019s servers.) I just spent way too much time scanning through the entire list looking for news organizations\u2019 apps. Below you\u2019ll find screenshots and info on the new apps from NPR, The Wall Street Journal, the AP, Bloomberg, and USA Today.<\/p>\n The NYT\u2019s \u201cEditor\u2019s Choice\u201d app would seem to be an answer to those who might find $10 or $20 a month too high to pay for access to what the Times gives away for free on its website. (I searched and searched for a non-free NYT app in the store listings and couldn\u2019t find one. That could mean it won\u2019t be ready for launch; it might mean that one will use an in-app purchase or login in the free app to get access to the full Times. Or it might just be that the full Times app hasn\u2019t been put on Apple\u2019s servers yet. Who knows? We\u2019ll find out Saturday.)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Le strategie della major tv usa per Ipad<\/a><\/p>\n CBS and ABC have inked deals with Apple to stream TV shows free of charge to users of the iPad, complete with commercial breaks – similar to the way they are streamed on the networks\u2019 own websites. CBS will stream shows through the iPad\u2019s Web browser, while ABC will stream shows via an iPad application, reports the Wall Street Journal.<\/p>\n The iPad, and Apple\u2019s iPhone, have caused problems for media companies wanting to maximize content on those devices, because of technical constraints. The iPad does not work with Flash technology, which many media companies use for their web video. Advertisers, too, tend to use Flash elements within their online video ads, meaning those features need to be rebuilt to work on the iPad.<\/p>\n NBC makes some of its shows available on an iPhone specific version of its website, while CBS\u2019s TV.com has an iPhone app which offers full video of some shows. Now, CBS and ABC are rebuilding their TV content to work on the iPad.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n L’abbonamento al NYT coster\u00e0 $17.28<\/a><\/p>\n So we now have the official price for the WSJ iPad app subscription: $3.99 per week with a monthly credit card charge of $17.29. For that you get subscriber-only content areas such Business and Markets with access to a 7 day archive that can be downloaded and read at any time. It also offers personalization features and the ability to save sections and articles for later reading. And hey, it’s actually a bit less than the rumored $17.99 rate. Without the subscription, the free WSJ iPad app is limited to top articles and market data. Here’s the catch: a subscription to both the print and online versions of the Wall Street Journal will currently set you back just $2.69 per week (plus 2 weeks free) for a monthly bill of $11.67… eleven dollars and sixty seven cents. Granted the WSJ claims that the 80% discount is a limited time offer but these newsstand discounts are always available in some form. Greed or insanity? Either way, a pricing model like this won’t save<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Domani sabato 3 aprile \u00e8 il giorno dell’uscita nei negozi americani dell’Ipad.
