Neseniai Jason Calacanis twitteryje (o jis, kaip rašoma, yra svarbus tarp blogerių asmuo), buvo pranešta, kad jam Apple buvo įteikę išbandyti savo tablet kompiuterį. Su sąlyga, kad jis turės padaryti pranešimus CNBC, CNN ir kt. televizijose.

Štai jo atsiliepimai:

Calacanis’ impressions:

• it’s “the most amazing device ever”
• it’s “really amazing for newspapers”
• video conferencing is “super stable”
• battery life is “great” when it comes to reading ebooks but not so great (2-3 hours) in Wi-Fi mode or when playing games
• tailor-made games are “sick”, on Wii level
• the customized Farmville app (which Jobs is going to demo tomorrow with the CEO of the company behind it) is “insane”

Functions and features:

• OLED screen
• solar pad for recharging on the back (the device is mainly battery-powered)
• the tablet is running on an iPhone OS variation

• it has thumb pads on each side (for mouse gestures)
• fingerprint verification (up to 5 profiles can be registered on one device)
• HDTV tuner, a PVR and a chess game built-in
• back camera and front camera (quote: “u shoot what’s in front of you + yourself. Augmented video conferncing!”)
• wireless keyboard + monitor connection for external monitors

Availability and price:

• the tablet will be offered by Verizon and ATT
• it will cost $599, $699 or $799, depending on the screen size and internal memory
