iPad, in all its glory →
As Apple started accepting Pre-orders for its magical and revolutionary device, the features page also got updated. Some surprises:
- Safari has a thumbnail grid view for pages.
- The iBooks app will accept any books in the ePub format. Sync them via iTunes.
- There’s no ‘Dashboard view’ replacing Spotlight. It’s still wasted on one gigantic list of skewed results.
- Still no mention of iTunes LP in the iPod app.
- There’s a physical Screen rotation lock button, so you don’t have to suffer reading in awkward positions.
- [Update, via Macworld] The iPad supports AVI videos, with a data rate of up to 35mbps.
