Just recently, Apple unveiled their company’s recent creation the Apple iPad. The rumored Apple tablet has been revealed by Steve Jobs himself on his keynote presentation at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts Theater in San Francisco, CA. The good news that came out of Steve Jobs speech is the Apple iPad’s pricing, which many didn’t expect the portable tablet to be sold at a very cheap retail price at $499. But how about iPad’s performance? Many are asking about the Apple iPad’s multi-tasking capabilities and specifications. Well, as far as tech users are concerned, the huge touch-screen and thin design really brings out the beauty of the iPad. Just think of it as an enlarged iPhone with more processing power with added features like iBook and iWorks, plus a better browsing and gaming experience. It’s processing speed is probably 2x faster than the Apple iPhone, running on a custom made 1GHz Apple A4 chip processor.

16Gb to 64GB Flash Drive
