Apple IPAD Misses or Cons
- Ipad lacks a Camera feature even though its in between a Smartphone and Laptop
- With iPad coming in 16, 32 and 64 GB versions, But does not have a SD card slot for additional storage
- IPAD does not support Flash content(as of now, maybe apps would fill that gap)
- Multi tasking options are missing, ie toggling between using Web and music or video is not possible, one at a time
- There is no facility for HDMI output in iPad.
- A different adapter required for any external device like cam, keyboard.
Overall its a GREAT product with a decent price and great features, lets see how it captures the market and if it really turns out to be a Kindle Killer.
