Gadget expert Casper Meijer had an iPad sent over from the United States to the Netherlands and took it home to test it out whilst lying on his sofa. In the first edition of 'Gadgets' - a series in which Casper regularly discusses new electronics and software - he talks about the iPad.
The tablet computer by Apple, which you can use to read books, look at photos, play games, type, surf the internet, watch films and many other things, is generally applauded. At the same time, the first version has quite a lot of setbacks.
Who better to scrutinise this new Apple-toy than Casper Meijer? He calls himself a gadget nerd and has been interested in technology and pressing buttons ever since he can remember.
His first computer was a Commodore 64 and later he bought a 386. Nowadays he is inseparable from his MacBook. Casper graduated from the Utrecht School of Journalism last year specialising in new media. Now he keeps track of the latest technological trends on Twitter, Facebook and his blog.




















But now I arrange rush at to feel that the fit domain is an riddle, a innocuous poser that is made hideous aside our own out of one's mind assault to simplify it as allowing it had an underlying truth.
I find myself coming to your blog more and more often to the point where my visits are almost daily now!
If Americans still don't take mental occupancy seriously, they won't be stronger again. Our brain needs enough blank.
I am still waiting to see an Apple product worth using, except the circular selector of the IPOD the rest is unoriginal and rather low quality. Not to mention the propertarian dictatorship (inherited from MicroChof?) and lack of standarisation... Still also waiting to see a usability/information systems expert saying they like something from Apple... Congratulations to their Marketing eam though!
Nice piece about the iPad. Easy to follow and very informative.
But does that Gadgets theme and graphic have to be repeated so many times during the presentation? Do you really think RNW users have the attention span of a three-year-old and need to be reminded so often about what they're watching? It's really irritating!
