iPad Sold More Than iPhone

Apple, Monday (05/03/2010), stating that it has successfully sold one million iPad in less than a month. This proves that the iPad sold two times more than the iPhone when first launched.

"One million iPad within 28 days means less than half the time required to achieve the same amount for the iPhone, which is 74 days," said Apple CEO Steve Jobs.

The number reached one million units of Apple on Friday (04/30/2010) when the second version, iPad 3G, released to the market. If iPad first version released 3 April 2010 can only access the WiFi, the 3G iPad can also access the AT & T's broadband network

iPad is a new category of products made by Apple with 9.7-inch touch screen and use the iPhone operating system OS. This device is sold starting at 499 U.S. dollars for the WiFi version and 699 U.S. dollars for the 3G. High demand in the U.S. market to make sales in other countries new iPad will begin on May 10, 2010.

Steve Jobs Disclose Defects of Flash

Open warfare between Apple and Adobe about Flash technology has been continued even hotter. Apple CEO Steve Jobs to write an open letter to defend himself from accusations that decided to stop development of Adobe Flash for iPhone, iPod, and iPad because Apple does not give a chance.

Not the first time Steve Jobs blames Adobe. Earlier, in a closed meeting, he reportedly once called Lazy Adobe Flash does not run so well on homemade devices. But, an open letter written on the Apple site, Thursday (04/29/2010) yesterday was his first public statement that revealed defects Flash.

In his article, entitled, "Though of Flash", Jobs stated his reasons for refusing Flash homemade devices. Jobs admitted that he considered disappointed with Adobe Flash lazy to develop in order to keep abreast of technology pursued by Apple.

"Adobe really slow in adopting Apple technology development platform. For example, although the Mac OSX has provided nearly 10 years, adopting in full the new Adobe (Cocoa) two weeks ago when selling CS5. Adobe is the developer of the last third of adopting Mac OS X in full, "said Jobs.

Jobs also called Flash is not working well for handheld devices that are now sailing tap into one of Apple's main business focus. According to the Flash technology has many weaknesses that are not suited for the touch screen. Flash also judged too big to suck bandwidth and spent batteries. Jobs also launched its latest report, Symantec's Flash menyabut not one of the most secure software sepnajang 2009. Again, Apple was blamed as the cause is often problematic Flash browser on Mac OS X.

Another reason that made Apple averse to its use of Flash is a closed (proprietary). With a closed standard that is determined entirely by Adobe, Flash stout restrictions on developers who create applications that use it can not free berkerasi. That's what makes Apple lose patience because of obstructed Adobe to develop an optimal content across all devices. Apple would prefer open standards like HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript.

For providing data access through 3G networks, Apple took its exclusive partner AT & T. Mobile operators are providing the data packets at a cost of 29.99 U.S. dollars. iPad so far can only be used on AT & T network is not because permissions are closed, but iPad using micro-SIM card smaller than a standard SIM card.

iPad is a new category of products that Apple introduced in order to reach the market between users of smartphones and netbooks users. Tablet computer similar device with 8.7-inch touch screen and no physical keyboard that uses the iPhone operating system.

Although criticized in some respects, for example, does not support flash and multitasking, iPad experience success in the sale offering.
