Although there has been many speculation and rumors on if the iPad was even going to exist, look like, or even be called it has, today, just been officially announced. Apple has just put their latest product, the iPad on their website today. Although you can not purchase the product yet they do show you a great pricing structure, design, features and and tech specs about the new iPad.

As I started looking at the iPad I realized that in a way it’s just really a bigger version of the iPhone with more battery life (10 Hours), a bigger screen (9.7 – inch), and some new features. One thing I thought thT was really cool about the new iPad is it has the ability to connect to wi-fi and 3G networks. So this means if you are on the go you can easily stay connected to the internet to check your email or surf the web even if you are not near a wi-fi area.

Below is an image of the iPad pricing structure. As you can see the product is actually very affordable for what you are getting. The iPad comes in three different classes (no wi-fi, wi-fi, wi-fi + 3G) and from those classes come 3 sub classes (16GB, 32GB, 64GB). Picture captured from Apples official website.

Have you ever wanted to open a file but didn’t have the correct software for it? Or wanted to be able to do something like create a PDF document or run your own server but not pay for the well known expensive software like Adobe Acrobat or WHS? You can use Google to find free or cheaper alternatives by doing a vs or alternative search.

For example if you want to find an alternative for creating PDF files type in “Adobe Acrobat vs” minus the quotes and you will get many suggestions. You can also do a search for “Adobe Acrobat Alternative” to find a free or cheaper alternative.

This is also a great tool to use if you need to find alternatives for different operating systems. For example lets say you just switched to a MAC from Windows and you are use to the oh so familiar “notepad” well if you do a search “notepad alternative for mac” you will be filled with a bunch of alternative choices to choose from.
