Sadly many were disappointed. The iPad is basically just a big iPod touch.

We were expecting something to run Snow Leopard (Apple’s newest operating system). The iPad runs the basic iPhone software though, with some minor alterations to the E-Mail and Safari apps.

The iPad also lacks a camera. Come on Apple it is 2010 even phones have at least one camera if not two.

There will be two models a Wi-Fi and a 3G Version. The 3G iPad will most likely run on AT&T’s data plan. Unlimited data is$29.99 a month. A 250MB plan, will be available for half that at $14.99 a month.

App wise the iPad can run anything for the iPhone and some developers can make apps for it that will take advantage of the iPad’s large 9.7 inch screen.
