Taking a Look at the Ipad Mini

Apple's iPad has revolutionized tablet computers in many ways. Ipad3 is the latest version released by Apple on March 16, 2012 and is sleek and faster than its predecessors. While other manufacturers are struggling with innovation in the tablet computer section, Apple seems to handle it with relative ease and this is one of the main reasons for its presence as a market leader in this segment.

Before the iPad was released there were several tablets on the market except they were not touchscreen. Other tablets were mainly used for reading before the release of the iPad. The iPad introduced the use of the internet on a tablet. At first, a lot of people questioned the usefulness of an iPad and did not see the use of purchasing one. When people realized that an iPad is like a portable computer they decided that it was worth purchasing.

Competitors in this market include the Apple iPad, Motorola Xoom, Amazon Kindle Fire, Samsung Galaxy Tab (10.1 inch), ASUS Transformer, and the Blackberry Playbook. Potential customers include the person that wants an alternative to a laptop or desktop PC. However, in many applications, the tablet is an extension of the laptop or desktop PC. Photographers, videographers, college students, sales agents, and executives are potential customers as the tablet allows the person access to files and folder that pertain to their field of work or studies. With the invention of cloud computing, any document can be viewed anywhere an internet connection can be received.

Patient intake solution can improve by the use of a Tablet PC. A patient can use the Tablet PC to give the office his or her demographic and insurance information, sign forms, along with answer health questions during his or her check in for the first visit. The later appointments have a reduce check in time since the patient only needs to update if needed. With the use of a Tablet PC, it will be a timesaving measure for the patients along with staff because it will improve the experience that the patient will have at that clinic or facility.

A notable aspect of the changes in technology is the ability to write or draw without use of paper, making it much easier to access it on long bus trips to and from various scheduled appointments. A laptop or tablet fits into a bag no larger than the average purse, a smartphone is even smaller than that and can easily be held in a pocket. Even if it’s just a few haphazard strokes or random ideas typed out, this allows creativity on the go, even if you’re busy all day.

Generally, there are two key forms of monitor interfaces that should be highly considered in the process of designing different computer applications namely the multi-touch screen interface and the mouse-driven interface. The controlling actions that are carried out by different computer users tend to have different preferences when it comes to the use of different computer applications uses (Dearden, 2008). As such, the application of the multi-touch screen gives computer users an opportunity to interact with the computer applications via a touch screen that will give them a chance to tap, swipe, long tap, and pinch the screens for purposes of performing their required

Tablets are effective tools used to improve users productivity and online experience whether it’s used for business, or life in general. Tablets are smaller than a laptop and bigger than a Smartphone, so it is perfect to take on the go. Users can browse the internet, create presentations, stay connected with their boss, download books, games and videos, watch movies, share photos and much more with their tablet. Just recently tablets have become the “new thing.” There is over 47.5 Million tablets sold to users in the United States today. Two of the most popular tablets on the market are the Apple iPad and the Amazon Kindle Fire. I evaluated them on battery life and capacity, screen size, and price.

“Imagine a tablet, maybe half an inch thick, shaped when held one way like an open book or magazine, when turned sideways much like a single page of a newspaper. It weighs six ounces. It’s somewhat flexible, which makes it easy to transport. Its screen, utterly glare-free, neither flickers nor fades nor grows dull” (Okrent 579). This is a description of a tablet Okrent saw back in 1999. That doesn’t seem too far off from what’s available today. Actually, it sounds a little better. Okrent later makes a good comparison in the format in which cell phones are sold today and how tablets may be similarly sold in the future. He argues it’s less about the vessel and more about the content in which they wish to sell you on that vessel. As cell phone companies do when

Since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution in the 1860’s, people have rapidly improved people’s lives with technology. The first generations of computers started the base of computers and their system. These generations were influenced by inventers like Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, and Steve Wozniok facilitated the computers, tablets, and smart phone we use today. With tablets and smart phone being so accessible it is no surprise that computers are not as popular as they used to. Many people would prefer to have an item that can fit in their back pocket or bag, instead of having to carry a big, space consuming item. They would rather have a hand held tablet and can fit almost any where somebody needs it to. Everywhere there is technology;

The accessibility of lightweight and flexible PCs with touch screens has expanded as costs have notably diminished over the most recent couple of years. Tablets additionally offer points of interest in PRO information gathering as information are proficiently entered on the touch screens and moved specifically into a focal database utilizing remote innovation, Kesterke, N., Egeter, J., Erhardt, J.

The authors Shannon Retter, Christine Anderson, and Laura Kieran wanted to know what impact, if any, an iPad 2 would have on students with learning disabilities in the classroom. Shannon Retter is a teacher at Bettendorf High School in Iowa, and Christine Anderson and Laura Kieran are professors at Western Illinois University. They decided to study a group of students from a Midwestern high school. During their study they had a focus group of 12 students, 7 of whom were diagnosed with ADHD, 2 students suffered from brain injuries, 2 had been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, and 1 student had autism spectrum disorder. The researchers compared the student’s 1st semester grades when the iPad 2 was not in use, to the 2nd semester grades when the iPad 2 was being used by the students.

The invention of touch screens for computer and cell phones allows the user to eliminate the keyboard and use a finger or a stylus pen (O’ Brien & Marakas n.d.).
