Apple iPad Available to the Public on April 3



Just slightly delayed versus plan, the most-awaited Apple iPad tablet computer will go on sale in US stores on April 3 and in other countries in late April

I was never too impressed with Apple iPad when it was introduced since it seems to fall in between the already innovative iPhone/ iPod vs. the netbook

But the iPad runs more than a hundred thousand applications that already operate on iPhone & iPod. The slight delay in availability did not appear to concern investors on Wall Street and Apple shares hit a record high of 219.70 dollars at one point.

AFP reports, the iPad has a 9.7-inch (24.6-centimeter) color screen and resembles an oversized iPhone. It is 0.5 inches (1.3 centimeters) thick, weighs 1.5 pounds (0.7 kilos) and comes with 16, 32, or 64 gigabytes of memory.
