Below is an article by Carl Howe, published on Seeking Alpha on January 28, 2010:
“I’ll be publishing a detailed analysis for clients about the Apple iPad and its effect on connected devices (i.e., it’s a big deal) in the next day or so. I have also posted photos that I took of the press, VIPs, and tablets we saw today for those who are interested.
However, I also had some takeaways from the event that fell somewhere between the immediacy of my tweets and the detailed analysis mentioned above. As I look toward the iPad shipping in late March/early April, I see some changes coming”.

5 Reasons to Wait for iPad 2.0

Written by Sarah Perez / January 28, 2010
With yesterday’s reveal of the iPad now past, we can finally put myth and speculation behind us and focus on the reality that is Apple’s entry into the tablet PC business. Whether the iPad is revolutionary or evolutionary is still hotly debated, but what we do know is that the computer, despite its elegance and blazing fast speed, is a decidedly first-generation device. Although one day after the product’s announcement may be too soon to discuss what’s coming in the next version of the iPad, we’ve already come across several reasons to wait… and some of those reasons are hidden away in the new iPad SDK (software development kit) itself.

How the iPad as a mobile device can be used to improve productivity for entrepreneurs and businesses? A closer look at the features of ipad revealed the endless possibilities for small business people who spend a large part of their time on-the-road. Realtors, financial planners, insurance brokers, sales professionals and others will benefit immensely as a result of being able to connect their clients with their businesses from anywhere.
Data plan is not restricted to any wireless data service providers
A departure from Apple’s current designated data providers will open up more market and flexibility to users of iPad. A significant price drop in the cost for data services is most significant in attracting buyers for ipad.
AT&T Inc. is offering a new type of data plan for Apple Inc.’s iPad tablet computer, to go on sale in a few months. At $30 per month for unlimited data, with no contract, iPad owners will pay half of what data service costs for a laptop under contract, what the industry calls a “postpaid” plan. There will also be a $15 per month option with limited downloads. The price will include use of AT&T’s network of Wi-Fi hotspots, which offloads capacity from the cellular network.
Will WoIP be next on ipad?
A major change has happened in the landscape of the iPhone: You can now make VoIP calls over your data plan. It was announced today by the makers of the iCall app, an application that allows for VoIP (voice over internet protocol) calls, that a significant change was made to the developer agreement with Apple. Apparently in the latest release of the iPhone OS SDK (software development kit), VoIP calling has now been enabled for unrestricted free local and long distance calling over 3G data networks. This is a significant change as it had previously been restricted to only Wi-Fi connections.
The above change is a big boost and helps to propel iphone position as a top choice for smart phone buyers. The same service may be extended to ipad, and blue-tooth wireless devices will allow the WoIP connection with iPad.
The bottom line
IPad will improve productivity for small business people who are on the move and in the field. The adoption of these enterpreneusrs for mobile communication and their ability to response to their prospects and past clients almost instantly will help to increase their services, and revenues.
