Apple Unveils iPad Tablet

Posted on January 27, 2010 by sean.scott | News

Apple announced their new tablet the iPad today.  It basically looks like a big iPod Touch and we’ll have to wait 60 days for the WiFi only model and 90 days for the 3G.  The price definitely fells like a deal breaker, with the best model costing almost as much as a MacBook laptop.  $30 a month seems like a good deal for unlimited data.   Big downside here is still no multitasking and there’s no built in camera.  Here’s quick info and specs:
