Apple recently announced that their long awaited Tablet iPad will be available to the publlic on April 3 with a "reservation", ranging from one week. Will the team iPad tablet kind of lines and packaging for a couple of days on the line that the iPhone did?
Probably not, but Appple is trying to use it to boomerang on the market, small marklet Tabelt PCs, in conmpetition with PC and notebook market, to some extent. Applres are expected to be downward migration of the users of notebooks iPad users to buy increasing the size of tablet markt and provide Apple with a lower barrier to entry.
There was so much hype over this and rightly so. Pat Shine Apple is a way to promnote and makret their products. Of course, styple and functionality of leading edge prodcuts on the market, but Apple knows how to create noise. Notce all these ads iPad gfts. They really are not scammers.
Of course, you can subscribe to several magazinews, and do some surevys, but in the end you get a free iPad. Here Apple genius. Insrtead of sepnding millions on television advertising, they are approaching this launch in other respects. Instead, they use the strengths and achiveements in the Internet and in combination with their own reputation, and get "nooise on the iPad Tablet.
Personally, I think it would be a blow and a great long-term Aple, who knows, maybe the origianl version of the iPad will be colectors, but I doubt it, at lezast not to Apple faaithful out threre. Instead, if the iPad will gain market share, but also inreases the Tablret PC market, it will be far aheda of all competitors, the iPPhone is today.
