iPad Launched

 Announced at the start of the year, the iPad has finally launched.

The sleek tablet device ranging from 16Gb to 64Gb has been on sale in the U.S since April 3rd 2010 and allows you to browse the internet, watch movies downloaded or on video streaming sites such as Youtube, be able to choose and use one of the millions of apps from the Apple apps store, download and listen to your favorite songs from iTunes and write text documents.

iPad specific apps are being developed for the device and early indications show that over 300,000 of the devices have been sold already.

However, for some unlucky few there have been complaints of technical glitches with fluctuation when using wifi and the device was not charging properly. Developers are working on updates to fix these problems which should be out in a few days.

The iPad will be on sale in Britain by the end of April with prices range from $499 (around £330) to $829 (around £550)
