The dreaded iPad

It's been a long hibernation, but Jordan's Sparks On Sports is back! For my first post of the new era, I will be going off topic and will give my first impressions of the iPad.

For advertising class, each student was given an iPad to share with a classmate and I have spent one full week with it so far. Here are my pros and cons:

Pros: - Angry Birds
- Makes people jealous
- Makes me feel rich

Cons: - Angry Birds
- Have to spend money to get decent apps
- If it didn't have apps, there would be almost no use for it


I'd have to say that so far, Angry Birds has been the only app that I've made use of and it's been a real hit. Not only has it been a hit with me, but everyone in the household loves it as well. I now see why this game has become in international phenomenon and even has it's own level walk through videos Out of all the time I've spent playing it, I'm sure almost everyone else has spent just as much, if not more, time playing it as I have.

So what's my final verdict on the iPad? If you're anything like me and hate sharing one thing with four people, just make everyone buy they're own iPads. If they don't want to fork out the cash then too bad, they had their chance.
