The iPad was released in April 2010, most people wanted to have one to enjoy the high tech. The iPad is a flat, rectangular computer with a large, 9.7-inch touchscreen on its face. It comes in six models - 16GB, 32GB, and 64GB, with or without 3G connectivity. All models offer WiFi.
The iPad's iBooks hasan easy to use and friendly interface for Apple book readers. The iPad supports E-mail, Calendar, File management and iWorks, etc. You can enjoy high-definition videos/movies, because iPad video output over VGA is set to 1024 x 768 using a 720p scan rate. However the iPad has a limitation of the BD-ROM and the DVD-ROM. So how do they enjoy Blu-ray discs on their iPads directly?
What formats can be supported by iPad?
