50: Look At Me, I’m A General Purpose Computer
from Technically Correct Podcast
It’s been over five years since the iPad emerged as the next big thing for general purpose computing, and now Apple have released the iPad Pro to add to their growing iPad lineup. But what is it for? And not just that, what is the iPad Air for? And while we’re at it, the iPad Mini as well! Rather than using the traditional hearsay and hyperbole method, which now seems to be the standard adopted by the tech press whenever discussing Apple’s tablet business, your hosts argue that case that Apple may well be sleeping at the wheel a bit when it comes to the iPad. Simon, Richard, and Mark are all of the opinion that the iPad and iOS are having somewhat of an extended identity crisis, but do you agree, dear listener? Let us know what you think.
