OK. So we were convinced that Apple would bring out a
7 inch version of the iPad. And I suppose that it was what
I wanted. I felt that the iPad was just a big iPhone and I
didn't want it then, and I couldn't see the need for one.
The iPad 2 has changed my thinking. And those of a lot of people we spoke to who didn't go for the original iPad.
It's still 10 inches. But the whole package feels smaller than the iPad, and now the iPad 2's screen somehow feels smaller.
But I think that what's happening to me is that I've developed a need for a tablet. I now need to read books and books on the iPhone are an OK experience but that screen is just a bit too small. I would consider a Kindle - and a Kindle is a lot cheaper - but I have an investment in iPhone Applications and it doesn't seem to make sense to buy a device that effectively only does one thing well. This is probably the same reason why typewriters don't sell in the numbers they used to.
I tried running Kindle on my laptop. But the boot-up time for the laptop (as well as the logon process) doesn't compare well to the instant-on of the iPad. I can easily lose the mood to read and so the iPad 2 should get me reading quickly.
I didn't queue up for the iPad 2, but the online order is in. Within 2 or 3 weeks time, I'll know if the plan worked and I'll read more. Or whether I've wasted more time by browsing the Internet..

The iPad 2 - Not what we expected...!
This is the the new BlackBerry Bold Touch, or the 9900.
Why is your old BlackBerry obsolete? This one has NFC built in for an exotic feature that's not available on other phones as yet. NFC is related and compatible with RFID, the tech that's inside your Oyster Card. It could mean that you'll tap your BlackBerry on an Oyster reader to gain access to the London Underground.
You've probably seen that Barclays advert where a bloke rides a high-speed roller coaster attached to buildings, on his way to work. Instead of zooming past a shop on your roller coaster ride and tapping a card to pay for your lunch, you could do the same with your new BlackBerry. Let's just hope you don't drop the phone.
What else? Well, the screen is a touch screen. The processor is faster, one of the fastest available. It has a HD video recorder.
So, need any more reasons as to why your BlackBerry is obsolete? Well, the new BlackBerry runs BlackBerry 7 OS and this OS is definitely not compatible with your old device.

Fractal Design's Define Mini
computer case
We've just discovered this cool case and it seems to be just what we've
been looking for! It's a case designed for a MicroATX motherboard and
will result in a compact tower computer with lots of style and built-in
features.
Minimalist in design, the inside of the case has plenty of sound absorbing material to make for a quiet computer. We think that this could be the new standard case that we will use to build our bespoke helpcomputing systems. We'll be testing this soon. We'll give it a good workout and let you know what we think!
We see too that Fractal Design have a larger design, the Define R3 and we may yet offer this case as an upgrade option for all those existing computers out there..
