iPad iBooks
The iPad is marketing like hotcakes -- an approximate of 2000 products per hour. The clients who buy the iPad all have a wide range of interests. Some purchase it for gaming, some buy it just to be the first on the early adopter train and some are still undecided whether they should invest in one. This piece of writing will examine the iPad as an eReader device and it will list the pros and cons of using the iPad as your main eReader.
The Pros. The iPad can assist a wider variety of file formats: cbr, pdf, doc, docx, ppt. You have a newspaper you need to read before Monday? No problem. Need to read the new manga or comic book that came out? No problem.
The only down side to this is that the ability to read a multiple range of formats is not built-in. One must buy an external App for this. Do not as paying for an app that does what should have been present on the iPad by default?
The iPad comes with an iBooks application. This is an.epub based store, which is so far supported by Penguin Books, HarperCollins, Simon & Schuster, Macmillan Publishers, and Hachette Book Group USA. The advantage of using the.epub format is that there is assist for "interactive books". One can rotate images, watch videos and even be in contact with other customer, all while reading a book. If you are visually impaired, the iPad ibooks app can read books out loud for you.
The Cons. The iPad works by using a backlit LCD display. Unlike the e-ink display screens, the iPad can worsen the eyes over prolonged reading. The two solutions to prevent irritation: blinking and following the 20/20/20 rule (every 20 minutes look 20 feet away for 20 seconds to permit your eyes to refocus) are quite an annoyance. The iPad also doesn't have a native pdf/doc/cbr/ppt viewing app and spending money on what should have been a default feature can be an annoyance.
