My Ipad 2 and the Review from Amazon

2012-05-10T12:18:00.000-07:00

Amazon where I buy stuff that I need and wants. Since the ipad 2 is now a little bit cheaper, I have decided to get one, even though I have a cellphone already but of course an iPhone is small compared to Ipad when you're browsing it is easier and also its nice to have when you like to play games. I bought an Ipad 2 color white, 16g and has WiFi only, because I do not want to pay the extra if I'll get the 3g connection, and in fact, I use my iPad just at home to surf, to play games, and showing pictures to the kids etc. Since the review in amazon is good, I have decided to get an Ipad 2 instead of the ipad 3 and its a little bit cheaper. But before I make a big purchase, I usually read reviews only esp. paying few hundred dollars and the review is good, so I got one and I am happy for it and there is no problem that I encounter in this Ipad that I have. I paid it for over $420, and I have happy with my purchase and I use my ipad often at home, I bought a case and screen protector which I paid almost about 500 bucks, I did regret what I bought, because the case I needed it, because when I just close it, it just lock by itself and also the screen protector, I do not want it will scratch my screen or leaves any finger marks or gets dirty. I love my iPad 2 and the reviews from Amazon, you can read it below.

This review is from: Apple iPad 2 MC755LL/A Tablet (16GB, Wifi + Verizon 3G, Black) 2nd Generation (Personal Computers)
For anyone out there who is considering whether or not to make the leap and purchase the iPad 2, this review is for you. If you're still debating between the iPad 1 and the iPad 2 check out my review of the first generation iPad right here on Amazon to see a discussion of its strengths and weaknesses with a number of people commenting (both positively and negatively) over the past 11 months.

Let me begin by saying this upfront, I don't work for Apple, I don't own Apple Stock, and whether you buy an iPad, Xoom, a laptop or a pad of paper and pencil I don't get anything for writing this. I'm not an Apple "fanboy" although I can give credit where credit is due and lately Apple has deserved a lot of credit for some of their products.

Physical Characteristics
The iPad 2 is absurdly thin. More importantly than it's thinness is its tapered edge which feels more natural in your hand. One of the biggest complaints about the original iPad was it really wasn't tremendously comfortable to hold for long periods at a time. For a tablet device designed to be held, that's a pretty big deal. Apple really has done an amazing job of cramming everything into an even smaller space than before and the difference is really noticeable when you're holding the device. In addition to the tapered edge, Apple managed to reduce the overall weight of the iPad 2. That might not seem like a huge deal to most, especially when you consider the weight difference isn't tremendous when you're already under 2 pounds, but I spend a good part of my day holding the iPad in my hands and the weight difference is surprising by the end of the day. The first generation isn't heavy by any means, but the iPad 2 outshines it.

New and "Improved"
Apple doubled the RAM in the iPad 2 from 256MB to 512MB. What does that mean? For most casual users, probably not a whole lot. There is a performance bump that everyone will see the effects of in things like loading times for webpages that are open in the background, but 256MB was sufficient for most daily use and games. If you're planning to use your device for some of the more graphically intense games the iPad 2 does offer a better method of graphics processing that'll help deliver faster images with fewer jerky movements. If you're just playing Angry birds and reading e-mail you're not going to know the difference.

The screen is the same for all real purposes. It is technically a "new" part in that it isn't identical to the old, it's a bit thinner and more efficient, but it's the same resolution. The Glass is thinner though, and this amounts to a fair bit of the weight loss from one generation to the next. In playing with the device it seems surprising but despite feeling lighter it actually feels more sturdy in your hands. I still wouldn't suggest dropping it, but if it were to fall the iPad 2 certainly feels like it might stand a better chance to survive. Try not to drop it though.

The addition of 2 cameras was expected. Some were a bit surprised to see the first generation released without the cameras. Whether it was for a price point consideration, or a means to get people to upgrade, Apple held off until iPad 2. The cameras do a reasonable job, but they're not going to replace a dedicated digital camera, or really even the camera on your phone for most still images. The cameras do a substantially better job with video, and FaceTime is probably one of the best reasons to get the iPad 2 over the original iPad. For those who might not be familiar, FaceTime is Apple's face to face conferencing system, kind of like Skype, or if you'd rather, kind of like the Jetson's TV/Phone. With the push of a button you can be having a face to face chat with a loved one just about anywhere in the world (provided they're on a wireless network at the time). FaceTime doesn't work over 3G natively (it can be used over a wifi connection created by a 3G device however) so you're not going to be able to use it in your car anytime soon. This is probably a good thing though. It is incredibly easy to use and if you know other people with an iPad 2, iPhone 4, or Mac it's a lot of fun.

Smart Covers aren't really "smart" but they're really very useful. Not only do they provide a stylistic enhancement of the device, but they serve a practical and functional purpose of doubling as a screen protector and stand in 2 configurations. You can find them in a variety of colors and from third market suppliers, and it's a safe bet that more will be out soon to capitalize on the magnetic sensors in the iPad 2. It's unfortunate that this same feature can't somehow be retrofitted to the iPad 1, I wouldn't have thought a case would be a compelling reason to consider a product over it's competitor, but these covers are really so useful it's hard to understand why they've not been there since the beginning.

Multitasking Support
One of the biggest knocks against the iPad when first released was the lack of native multi-tasking support. Jailbreakers added the feature quickly and Apple soon realized it would be a requirement for any future device's success and released an OS update that included the feature. The iPad 2 capitalizes on that progress and takes it a step further with the increased RAM enabling more open applications to be suspended at once, and the time to open or close an application has improved as well. That said, even the first generation managed to open and close apps faster than most people would be used to on their computers, so while this is an improvement it's more akin to showing off.

Apps
One thing that Apple has clearly the advantage in for the moment is app availability. The App store has close to 70,000 iPad specific Apps, all of which will work on the iPad 2. The new cameras will undoubtedly see this list expand rapidly, as will the inclusion of a gyroscope for gaming and motion based uses. There are also a substantial number of professional applications ranging from document creation to photo editing and vector drawing. Chances are if you can dream it, there's an App for that (and if not you might want to get started on one to fill in the gap). The Android market is making a strong showing, and ultimately it'll likely be a strong competitor, for now it still has a ways to go, but any potential buyer should consider the strength of the application market before buying a tablet.

Pros:
Weight. Seriously. The minimal weight of this thing is by far the most impressive feature about it in my opinion. It seems to defy physics and logic that so much could be in such a small space working that hard for that long.

Battery Life. From full to dead my iPad 2 went just over 11 hours with the movie Robin Hood showing twice during that time, the screen at half brightness, wifi turned on, an Angry Birds marathon and a good portion of a book in ibook. That's better than a work day and that's constantly on.

Books. This is definitely a Pro, but reading itself could go either way. The great benefit to the iPad is having access to Google Books, ibook, Nook, and Kindle. This allows for some comparison shopping and price competition (although for the most part they're all usually about the same). Reading in the evenings in bed is great as the back light means you don't have to worry about keeping others awake, but the glass screen causes some glare trouble when trying to read outside or near a sunny window. If you're an avid outdoor reader the Kindle might still be your best bet.

Cons:
Still no dedicated USB support. While there is a camera add-on that allows for certain USB devices to be used there is no option for mass storage. Some of the Android Tablets allow for this and if you find yourself wanting to use your tablet as a standalone storage device this might be something to consider. The device can read from certain flash drives though, but is largely limited to photo and video files. Jailbreaks offer solutions to this, but those come with their own issues as well.

Still no dedicated SD card slot. This is troublesome on two fronts. First, if you want to import pictures from your camera you have to have an adapter which is just one more thing to carry around. Second, the lack of expansion means you're limited to what you purchase in terms of storage. I purchased a 32GB iPad last time and never filled it up completely, so for me capacity wasn't an issue. If you want to be able to have your entire movie collection with you though... you may want to consider whether the iPad 2 can meet your space requirements.

HDMI output. Really this is a Pro and a Con. The iPad does allow for HD output over HDMI but again it requires an adapter. All of these adapters are additional purchases for features that some tablets offer built in. This can be a pain, but then again if you're not likely to ever use HDMI Output then you're not paying for something you won't use.

No Flash Support. This is becoming less and less of an issue as the internet and web developers are moving away from Flash for many websites, but there are a lot still out there relying on Adobe's Flash to run properly (including a lot of web based games). Before you pick a tablet consider what kind of websites you frequent and try and determine if they are Flash driven or not. If they are you may really want to consider something from the Android offerings as it is expected that they'll have at least some Flash support.

If you're in the market for a tablet device the iPad 2 should definitely be on your short list. If you're uncertain it is always best to go and play with these things hands on first if you can. Best Buy is a good place for that, so are Verizon Stores since they have the Xoom and 3G iPad. Don't get pulled into the hype and mania that comes with an Apple release. They're exciting and new, and they're impressive enough to warrant some excitement, but it will die down and there will be other products that prove a strong competitor to the iPad 2. If you're looking for right now though, this is probably your best bet. I gave the device 4 stars, as I did the iPad 1. I did this in contemplation of the features offered by competitors that are absent from the iPad, most notably the requirement for adapters for USB/SD/HDMI. While these features are there, they aren't as convenient as in other tablets. With that in mind I firmly believe that the iPad more than makes up for this in usability, reliability, and design and in those areas far exceeds its current competitors.

In the meetings or conference there are different kinds of people attending and others cannot speak or understand the language of the speaker, so, it is necessary to have a Language Interpreters.

Garmin - nüvi 255W GPS , Don't Get Lost Again W/ Navigator

2009-06-29T19:50:00.000-07:00

I have been longing to have my own GPS but before owning it, I planned getting my driver license and it happened that I got one and I told my husband since I got my driver license, I wanted to have a GPS so that I could visit my friend and never get lost again if I will visit them or I'll go shopping. GPS (global positioning system) is amazing as I can imagine holding a map all the time and it takes time to find a place and besides w/o a GPS would be difficult to find a place that you are looking for like the restaurant, grocery, friends house etc. You know GPS is very convenient and you really need to have it especially when you do landtrip or you are not familiar with the place and it helps you find a place that you wanted to go to or you will never get lost again. The GPS that I've got is really good since I'll know how fast I am driving and it shows the speed limit in that area and it has lots of features that you can read below and this type of GPS cost $179. I guess I cannot live without GPS and I am sure I'll get lost. Thanks to those who invented GPS!

2009-05-02T21:00:00.000-07:00

Pacman congratulations! The victorious and a great boxer, mabuhay!

Ricky Hatton on 2nd round was knockdown and they are checking him if he was okay while he was lying down.

On the 1st round when the fight started, I felt nervous and makes me do not want to watch it, because I thought Pacman will lost the fight since for me he was kind of underdog as looking Ricky Hatton looks to me as strong and a great boxer. If you wanted to see what's happening during 1st round of Ricky, watch the video that I attached below and I made for you guys and enjoy! Feel free to post comments. Have a great Sunday!

Last week, I had enough time watching TV and while I was in bed, I kept changing the channel and I end up the "LMN" I was wondering what is the meaning of it, but since it has an advertisement, I understand what it is. I remember, there is no LMN channel before. Recently, I watched several movies in there already. I did watch last night but I end up falling asleep during advertisement (lol). I liked LMN channel even though there are advertisements. When I wanted to watch movie, I just looked or checked what movie is on. The channel now is one of my favorite.

The Spirit Movie

2009-03-24T20:12:00.000-07:00

The Spirit is a 2008 American comic book adaptation, written and directed by Frank Miller and starring Gabriel Macht, Samuel L. Jackson, Sarah Paulson, Scarlett Johansson, and Eva Mendes. The film is based on the newspaper comic strip The Spirit by Will Eisner. Batfilm, OddLot, and Lionsgate produced the film.

Reading and hearing the title "The Spirit" sounds like a good movie but I was wrong than what I expected. The movie for me is doesn't blow me away and let me say, I do not like the movie as it was boring for me. At 1st, I wanted to go out as I thought it is just a waste of time and my eyes wanted to sleep while watching the movie and even I knew it was not good or boring, I watched it 'til the end together with my husband. There are some scene which is unwatchable and I do not know how to describe it. Well... I will rate the movie as 2 stars and if that's so, the movie is not really good.

Philadelphia Plastic Surgeon

Sometimes my mind wonder that technology can changed the environment, the lives of people or even the beauty and also makes me salute those people who are skilled to beautify anybody who wanted to have a plastic surgery and through them, it can make you happy and can make you look beautiful.

One time, my husband and I heading to Orlando and we talked about weight loss surgery and I end up asking him if he did it before and he told me, he did the liposuction once and he said it works good for him. I was kind of amazed or surprised that he did it before as I thought he was brave by doing it and I told him "you did not tell me that you had a liposuction" and he said "because you never asked" (lol). Anyway, I told my husband that I wanted to have a nose done but he did not agree about it as he said, the nose makes me look cute. This evening, I seek where I could approach if I wanted a nose done or if I will undergone I want a Doctor who specializes in cosmetic surgey and while browsing, I came across this Philadelphia Plastic Surgeon which you will find information about Dr. Emily Pollard, as one of PhiladelphiaВ’s leading Plastic Surgeons and specializes in cosmetic and reconstructive surgery, breast surgery, body contouring, tummy tucks, and surgical and non-surgical facial rejuvenation procedures.

Religulous Movie (Starring Bill Maher)

2009-03-21T18:00:00.000-07:00

My husband ordered this movie in our hotel room and I end up watching it also as I do not have any choice, even though I thought it will be boring for me but I thought it is an interesting to watch what people's reaction or views when Bill Maher asked about religion or about Jesus or believing in God. In the movie, Bill Maher travels different countries like Israel, England, Netherlands, Vatican City and across America and speaking to people about their faith and religion. I will give it as 3 stars. I did enjoy watching this movie.

For me, believing in God is not wrong and even people who said there is no God or Bible is just collections fairytale stories, I do not care whatever they say. And whoever believes that there is God, continue believing and you will not lost anything right? For me, believing in God gives me hope and makes me happy! :)

Buying a communication system should be the one which is made from a quality material and comfortable to use. If you need one, you wanted to buy it from a company or a store where they made great products that you can rely on. There are equipments for military or police that should be durable and comfortable to use like the Crypto Handset, because it often used during operation. I can imagine how annoying could be if you are using a handset which you are not comfortable using with.

I recommend to my readers this cjcomponents.com site that they are offering Tactical Handset and H60PT Handset or they have complete product lines of handsets, headsets, microphones and speakers, and also cable assemblies and cabling products.

Jack Lalanne's Power Juicer is Truly Amazing & My Review

2009-01-28T10:53:00.000-08:00

I was wishing to have a power juicer as I saw it in TV and it made me convinced to buy one since I loved drinking pure juice. I knew that eating fruits and vegetables is great since it is source of fiber but sometimes I wanted that I will just drink instead eating carrot one by one. Anyway, my husband surprised me a "Jack Lalanne's Power Juicer" as Christmas gift and I was really excited and after I got it, I did read the instructions and started using it and made carrot juice and apple. For the 1st time using it, I was really happy as I did not see, own or use a powerful juicer like that before which is truly powerful one and it amazes me as it's separates the pulp and it is much easier than the traditional way extracting the juice. Furthermore, it is easier to clean up than other juicer as my sister owned a different type of juicer and she told me, she need to extract the juice by herself and difficult to clean up. I am thankful that my husband gave me a Christmas gift which is more useful and I can say, my husband and I loved the Jack Lalanne's Power Juicer. It is truly amazing! I rate it 5 stars!

Save Money and Compare Prices of LCD TVs

2009-01-12T20:31:00.000-08:00

My husband and I have a big TV but it is not a LCD TV or flat screen. I always wanted to have a flat screen TV with high definition since it is more enjoyable to watch the show that I liked as it offers clear quality images and sounds and for me it is fantastic to have one. We are planning to buy a new house, we planned to get a flat screen TV too, and I hope it will happen so that it would be more fun and enjoyable to watch TV with high definition flat screen TV. Anyway, I checked online where we could get LCD TVs, I came across this savebuckets.co.uk, which is a registered company in England and Wales. Furthermore, it is a site that offers free comparison-shopping service and it helps you to find the item that you want and the budget that makes you save time and money. They have thousands of items that you can find because it offers wide array of shops or store. In addition, you will enter your email address and the maximum amount that you wanted to pay that against the product that you have selected and once the item that you selected has changed the price; they will contact you by email. Just in case, you are looking where you can get a cheap deal for LCD TV, I recommend checking their site.

Starting a Small Business

2009-01-10T15:21:00.000-08:00

I just started selling my new and old stuff in eBay that I do not use anymore. I tried getting rid some things that it accommodate space in our place. My husband gets mad at me as he said, I kept buying stuff and we do not have enough room in our condo. Moreover, few days ago, I started selling in eBay and since I am not new. There are not a lot of people did bid my display but at least somebody did bid than nothing. It is just a start and I will find out what will happen next if I will do well in business. I am also trying familiarizing in selling in eBay so that if there is any problem arises, complains, or questions, I will know. Doing business at home is great. Wish me luck!

Survivor Gabon Winner

2008-12-15T16:52:00.000-08:00

I watched the “Survivor Gabon” this evening since I did not have a chance watching last night as we were recording it in our TiVo and it was late also for me to watch it. Anyway, my husband and I did watch this evening and I am full of joy that Robert "Bob" Crowley, who is 58, who live in Portland, Maine, a Physics teacher-won a million dollars. I was cheering for him since from the day 1 and I am happy he did make it and won a million. Congratulations Bob!

Updates Survivor Gabon Player Voted Out

2008-12-14T18:50:00.000-08:00

Yesterday, my husband and I watched the “Survivor Gabon” the reality TV show that we did record in our TiVo. It was showing on Thursday but we watched it on Saturday night and were glad that we record it so that we knew the latest of the show. We are fond of reality TV show. I have been fond of watching “Survivor” since I still live in Philippines. I remember my older sister and I used to watch it. Anyway, the “Survivor Gabon” latest updates is that one competitor named Crystal Cox, who is a a 29-year-old 2004 Olympic gold-medalist track athlete from Durham, NC, were voted out on Thursday. In my opinion, even though she was an athlete player and Olympic champion does not mean she will be good in any competition in “Survivor” as the games or challenges are not that easy and she does not practice it. I knew there are viewers were shocked why she is suck and never won any reward or immunity idol even once, but she tried her best. Anyway, I was fond of Marcus but was voted out and I was somewhat sad as I was cheering for him, he was a treat as he was good of any challenges. I am fond also of Bob as he is the oldest man and kind of underdog but he is intelligent man and he did even won two times an immunity idol and I am happy for him. One thing that makes me laugh so hard that Bob made a fake immunity idol and gave it to Randy and he thought it was a real one. By the time, they were in the Jury, and the member did vote him out, he gave to Jeffrey Lee Probst (host), and he said, the immunity idol is not real and he thrown into the fire and the competitors are laughing at him (lol). Well...who will not laugh as Bob did make a fake idol and went to the jury? (ha-ha), poor Randy, he did not know it was a fake, he really thought he will still stay (lol).

Anyhow, the remaining competitors now are Sugar, Kenny, Bob, Susie and Matty. I liked Sugar, as she seems has a good heart. Since from the beginning, I liked sugar as she is sweet, funny and they thought she is not smart but she found the real immunity idol and I do not think she is not smart, for me, she is an intelligent girl, I hope she will win or Bob. I like Matty too but if he will win, it is fine for me. About Susan, I do not have a lot of comments for her since for me she is just neutral and sometimes she changes her mind who she will vote for. Okay folks, it’s all for now, I am going to watch the “Survivor Gabon” which is on tonight and will last for 2 hours. Who will be the next person will be voted out in “Survivor Gabon”?
