Here's an interesting tidbit about the new Apple iPad:
The New iPad's Biggest Advancement Might Actually Be Under The Hood BY A.T. Faust III on Thu March 08th, 2012 battery iPad battery iPad battery life new ipad the new iPad from AppAdvice The New iPad’s Biggest Advancement Might Actually Be Under The Hood Beyond processor specifications, Apple doesn’t usually have much to say about the inner goings-on of its iDevice family, and the new iPad has been no exception. From Apple’s announcement, we knew it would feature a quad-core A5X SoC, but that’s about all. However, earlier-than-expected “confirmations” indicate that the included RAM’s been doubled to an entire gigabyte, and that the battery — previously a 9644 mAh (25Wh) powerhouse — is now a gigantic 11,666 mAh (42Wh)! On a practical level, it’s obvious Apple had to introduce a larger battery to keep the new iPad on track for 10 hours per charge. After all, that new Retina display sucks down more juice than Mr. Olympia, and LTE — when enabled — is notoriously hard on energy stores. So, it should be no surprise that Apple needed to up the battery ante. What is surprising, however, is that Apple managed this drastic improvement while barely increasing the overall size of the iPad itself. And, since last year’s model was nearly all battery to begin with, this means Apple has made quite the industrial breakthrough. Like ZDNET tells us, *It suggests that Apple has managed to increase significantly the power density of the Li-ion cells that it uses. In an industry that has seemed stagnant for some time now, this is quite an achievement and goes to show that Apple’s battery research labs and manufacturing plants have been hard at work. There’s no doubt that we’re going to be seeing the fruits of this labor in other Apple products soon.* What’s more, these advancements are likely proprietary, protected properties, meaning the Cupertino company has yet another strategic advantage over its computing competition. It’s been a long time coming, but battery life — at least for Apple products — may finally give up its crown as mobile technology’s single largest limiting factor. - - - I like this...advances in batteries... |

Well, typically the charge for what is being called 4G access is $30 a month for two measly gigs of data downloading. That's a high price for not very much data. I can "tether" for no additional charge. I don't see much need for having "4G" access on an iPad, anyway. I can transceive emails on my iPhone, and do all manner of web-related tasks on the phone. I haven't been at a hotel without wifi for a long time, and there's now free wifi at most airports and, of course, at coffee shops and suchlike. I haven't had any security problems yet related to wifi use, and I've been wifi-ing while traveling for many years. |

Besides, I'm sure the iPad can be "tethered" to a cellphone with network service. Get the 4G, the ability to use it anywhere you can get a signal is worth the cost. Subjecting yourself to all of the Wi-Fi networks is dangerous. But, I wouldn't buy one for several months. Let others find out how good the "new" batteries are. Well, typically the charge for what is being called 4G access is $30 a month for two measly gigs of data downloading. That's a high price for not very much data. I can "tether" for no additional charge. I don't see much need for having "4G" access on an iPad, anyway. I can transceive emails on my iPhone, and do all manner of web-related tasks on the phone. I haven't been at a hotel without wifi for a long time, and there's now free wifi at most airports and, of course, at coffee shops and suchlike. I haven't had any security problems yet related to wifi use, and I've been wifi-ing while traveling for many years. If the iPhone will do what you need they why do you need to get an iPad? |

Here's an interesting tidbit about the new Apple iPad: The New iPad's Biggest Advancement Might Actually Be Under The Hood BY A.T. Faust III on Thu March 08th, 2012 battery iPad battery iPad battery life new ipad the new iPad from AppAdvice The New iPad?s Biggest Advancement Might Actually Be Under The Hood Beyond processor specifications, Apple doesn?t usually have much to say about the inner goings-on of its iDevice family, and the new iPad has been no exception. From Apple?s announcement, we knew it would feature a quad-core A5X SoC, but that?s about all. However, earlier-than-expected ?confirmations? indicate that the included RAM?s been doubled to an entire gigabyte, and that the battery ? previously a 9644 mAh (25Wh) powerhouse ? is now a gigantic 11,666 mAh (42Wh)! On a practical level, it?s obvious Apple had to introduce a larger battery to keep the new iPad on track for 10 hours per charge. After all, that new Retina display sucks down more juice than Mr. Olympia, and LTE ? when enabled ? is notoriously hard on energy stores. So, it should be no surprise that Apple needed to up the battery ante. What is surprising, however, is that Apple managed this drastic improvement while barely increasing the overall size of the iPad itself. And, since last year?s model was nearly all battery to begin with, this means Apple has made quite the industrial breakthrough. Like ZD NET tells us, *It suggests that Apple has managed to increase significantly the power density of the Li-ion cells that it uses. In an industry that has seemed stagnant for some time now, this is quite an achievement and goes to show that Apple?s battery research labs and manufacturing plants have been hard at work. There?s no doubt that we?re going to be seeing the fruits of this labor in other Apple products soon.* What?s more, these advancements are likely proprietary, protected properties, meaning the Cupertino company has yet another strategic advantage over its computing competition. It?s been a long time coming, but battery life ? at least for Apple products ? may finally give up its crown as mobile technology?s single largest limiting factor. - - - I like this...advances in batteries... They are using bigger cells. Wow, I wonder how many million dollars it took some group of engineers to figure that out;) ??? There's a bit more to it than you morons can conjure, eh? What is the "bit more to it" Harry? I'm sure all will be revealed to those who read the articles and look at the videos after the first few teardowns of the new iPad. I've read about a dozen articles so far in which there have been various "speculations" about what Apple has done in the battery. I know advances in batteries and battery life annoy you and your fellow troglodytes, because the technologies might help hasten the end of dinosaur fueled cars. Harry, my wife keeps me abreast of the advances in battery technology. Right now she is evaluating a set of Lion cells for quality and performance. I am not annoyed by advances in battery technologies, I understand the good, the bad and the ugly side of them. The EPA and its regulations has forced all but one battery manufacturer off-shore. I'm tempted by the new iPad, enough so that I am considering selling my MacBook Pro and getting one. The claimed 10-hour battery life for the new model, despite its higher definition screen, is very attractive. And free wi-fi is pretty much available everywhere we go, so I see no need to spend anything extra to buy the "4G" model or pay the monthly charges for "4G" service.

I'm using a server as a home server. I did use an HP WHS for a few years, but I sold that one and got a server from Synology.

Why do you have 347 movies on your "home server"? Why don't you use the iCloud or some other cloud product? Pirated movies? I think it is worse than that, content of a subject matter. |

Even my German friend (remember the conversation that ended in me being a hobbyist) has started to think that the rigid architecture around Apple is confining. He is the one who didn't want to know he had a computer. I used to be concerned about having a "bleeding edge" desktop machine, but after I bought my first Apple computer, those concerns faded. My current Apple desktop has an Intel i7 CPU and seems more than fast enough for what I do with it, which is writing for $$$, emails, web surfing, et cetera. I could sell it for a good price right now and buy the latest Apple desktop, and it would be faster, I suppose, but so what? My laptop is now four years old. It's certainly more than adequate for the use to which I put it, although I am thinking of selling it - it'll still fetch around $750 - and getting the new iPad. I don't feel "confined" by Apple's architecture. I "jailbroke" my iPhone 4s about a month ago so I could use some non-App store apps I like. The phone performs well for me most of the time, though I wish the phone vendors would spend more time improving the "phone" aspect of their cell phones and less time on dumb**** like built in cameras. I do have 3 running laptops, One is my weather server among other things just because it is cheap to run and I always take a laptop on vacation. The Dell I like has S-video out and most new hotel TVs have either S-video or VGA inputs so I can stream, movies and play our tunes in the room. It is also handy for looking at our vacation pictures. I can roll them out of the camera, edit them and upload to my web site on the road. I use my home server to stream movies and music to my laptop and iPhone, and, if I get one, an iPad. You have a home server? Any PC can do that... Another non-intellectually based, totally devoid of meaningful content post from "Earl." Yawn. Yes, Earl, I know. But I'm not using a PC as a server. I'm using a server as a home server. I did use an HP WHS for a few years, but I sold that one and got a server from Synology. At the moment, it has 347 movies on it, among other things, and it is also used to back up a handful of computers in this household. Now, run along. Your mommy is looking for you. Why do you have 347 movies on your "home server"? Why don't you use the iCloud or some other cloud product? Pirated movies? I think it is worse than that, content of a subject matter. I admit to having a large collection of actual Sarah Palin video clips in my "Humor" folder. Are you having trouble getting it up? Don't you remember a number of years ago Harry complained about only seeing penis pills advertisements when he surfed the Internet. When it was pointed out to Harry that he was the recipient of targeted advertising based upon his surfing history he stopped telling us about the ads he is presented with. I remember that clearly... He was getting sex toys too... I hear your dick isn't long enough to *be* a sex toy... Where did you hear that from? |
