What Type Of Hair Does Rihanna Wear

iPad

Yesterday was released the 'iPad of Apple .

If you have not seen it yet, run out to see him, perhaps because it is the beginning of a revolution.
If you like, you can find below some 'of raw information and my first impressions.

What is this?
A new tool that you place between a PDA, a netbook, an iphone, an ipod, but it's different.

How does?
A flat screen 10 'is completely touchscreen (use your fingers to control it on the screen instead of buttons), a keyboard appears on the screen when you need it.

What is it?
  • surf the Internet via Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and 3G (depending on model)
  • manage mail
  • write to take notes
  • view documents (pdf, htm and html, gif, jpg, tif, doc, docx, txt, rtf, ppt, pptx, xls, xlsx, key, Pages, Numbers)
  • enter appointments as an 'agenda
  • manage a section of Contact
  • listen to music (like an iPod, but with both headphones or speakers)
  • see movies
  • video and see the photographs
  • read books and magazines (like an ebook reader and color)
  • search for places to play and to see maps with GPS (as a navigator satellite, depending on model)
  • buy directly music, videos, books and applications to do many other things (like the iPhone apps)
How big?
Approximately 24 cm high and 19 cm wide by 1.4 inches deep.

How much does it weigh?
approximately 700-750 grams.

How long does the battery last?
say 10 hours.

How much?
From $ 499 to $ 829 depending on memory (16 to 64 Gb) and the system of internet connection (just Wi-Fi or Wi-Fi + 3G) *.
When you do not know prices in other currencies.

Where can I get it?
Beginning in March or April 2010.

What's missing?
  • the multitasking (ie the possibility of two or more things together), then separate read and listen to music simultaneously (this can be done), the rest can not. Strange is not it? Maybe can use push technology, but I'm not sure.
  • an internal USB port (you can buy external un'accessorio)
  • not play Flash content
  • the webcam (you can not make video calls via VoIP, as you do with Skype for example)
  • the camera (but taking pictures with a 10-inch frame seems a little 'uncomfortable)
  • the camera (as above)
  • slot for memory cards (not essential, but convenient, but you can buy the external accessory)
  • does not make phone calls (but you try it a call in a frame attached to the ear)
  • the backup is possible only through computer connected .
What excites me not (but is not the only unfortunately):
  • can not install what you want but only what's available to Apple
  • is full of DRM (ie, protection that will not allow you to have the things you buy and only use them as long as it was hired who you want)
Why do I like?
  • does what he does the ipod touch (music, photos, games, videos, applications, nice), but with a larger screen
  • does what a PDA: calendar, contacts, notes, calculator, etc..
  • does what he does a USB key (bring along your most important files) and you can see all kinds of documents on the big screen
  • can surf the Internet and use email without major restrictions, much like computer
  • is small and lightweight, but a decent video
  • is simple and straightforward to use
Who is it?
  • the latest gadget nerd in search (I'm in pole position)
  • To those who use the computer and badly. These people want to surf, chat, mail, and everything else without having to learn too much information
  • Who wants to be comfortable on the couch to use the computer for fun
  • Who wants to carry around your documents and take a look Internet and email, "but a PDA is awkward" (I for example)
  • students and all those who need to see around and read rather than do.
  • Representatives (catalogs) and doctors (medical)
IPAD is the sum the beginning of a revolution because it is not perfect, indeed, but it is the first example (after the iphone) how information technology can truly be for everyone. There is much to learn to use it, it is he who is right for you and that you will not suit him.
This is revolution, I think, or at least is the first real step towards a new world.

For this reason I wish this accessory, and those to come, long life.
Hoping to evolve abandoning DRM, proprietary systems and incompatible formats.
In this regard, read what it says Josh Bernoff .

Obviously there are many opinions on the net. Try to read what it says Attivissimo , Wittgenstein, David Pogue, Gizmodo . Do not miss this funny video .


Note on the system of internet connection.
For the uninitiated, crudely and inaccurately describe the two systems mentioned above.
Wi-Fi means access from your laptop to a wireless network, usually in the company, at home, at the airport in a bar, etc..
While using the 3G system means using the same system that allows you to surf from your laptop with the usb stick to a telephone operator.

PS tagging this post I used almost all the items available. It will mean something?

Inglese accent

I'm very intrigued with accents.

On YouTube you can spend an evening browsing through videos on the topic:
  • Here a video of Amy Walker showing some typical accents of English speakers. A good example
  • from Italy.
  • The great Russell Peters . The
  • Welsh (a language not an accent) is lovely and surreal.
  • L ' Australian is nice.
  • And I must say that Matt Damon ITALES imitating the accent.
  • If you also want the classic Monty Python .
  • But
  • this is probably the most fun.

Amata grammar

I like the Italian grammar.

Yes I know I'm weird. At school I did not like much, but now increasingly appreciate.
Even if you do not know well and sometimes I write about the incredible blunders.

So I'm just a bit 'of useful ideas:

Take a look at how they've changed in the year just past, some logos we know well.

The rebranding logo (or the art to refresh, revive, renovate the company logo) is a fascinating subject.

Please read the logo? Ambiguity

This video the New Zealand Book Council is fabulous, wonderful, etc.. Etc..

If there makes me want to read, I do not know what to say ...

The book describes in the video is Going West, the author Maurice Gee (here news Wikipedia ). To my knowledge, is translated in Italy. A pity it seems.

From Blog craft of writing, I report updating ambiguity between the English and Italian (pdf file) by Giancarlo Livraghi of Galdalf.it .

Separate newspapers and magazines from their cellophane wrappers, remove the "window" of the plastic envelopes; flattened cardboard boxes and cardboard and, of course, throw everything in the box of the paper. E 'can also give the multilayer containers (tetra-brik) of milk or fruit juice prior rinsed.

It is not necessary to remove any paper labels. All other plastic containers for food or not, which are purchased at the supermarket can be disposed of in the dumpster provided it does not contain food residues. Excluded from this collection furniture, toys, CD boxes, plates, glasses, cutlery, briefcases, car accessories, bins and bins, bags and backpacks that must be disposed of as household waste. Containers for glues and paints, cement bags, small and large appliances must be placed ecological island

The collection containers are usually in front of the pharmacy, before you get rid of expired medicines remove them from the packaging of paper.

For hazardous waste (car batteries, paints, edible oils and mineral oils, etc..) For bulky waste (furniture, cardboard, plastic and wood pallets, etc..) and WEEE (waste electronic equipment such as phones, computers, ipod, appliances) must make use of ecological stations equipped or otherwise contact the managing body of the collection. For batteries

food, all glass bottles, plastic, cans, milk, metal of all kinds containers of plastic foam, plastic bags, nets for fruit, tea bags, sugar, boxes of medicines, cosmetics, bags and sacks. Do not forget, also, all the cards for food that surround our hams, cheeses, etc..

FOODS IN SEASON WITHOUT PACKAGING. We avoid
the cans, wrappers, plastic and cardboard, frozen food from its expensive. We can buy fresh fruit and vegetables in season: it requires low power consumption for the production, storage and transportation, creates little packaging and allows the choice of the quantity desired by the customer.

reusable bottles.
Here at the glass shop you can make.
not throw him in the garbage, or worse, leave them lying around; riponiamoli stationed in containers for glass recycling.

FOODSTUFFS.
Good management of the family economy should only buy the goods of which we actually need and in the least amount possible,
consistent with the needs of our time, in this way will help to avoid the waste of food, cut packaging and help save on our budget and that of the community.
