C
ongratulations! You’ve selected one of the most incredible handheld
devices we’ve ever seen. Of course, the iPad is a combination of a killer
audio and video iPod, an e-book reader, a powerful Internet communications
device, a superb handheld gaming device, a still and video camera (iPad 2
only), and a platform for over 150,000 apps at the time this was written —
and probably a lot more by the time you read this.
In this chapter, we offer a gentle introduction to all the pieces that
make up your iPad, plus overviews of its revolutionary hard-
ware and software features.
Exploring the iPad’s Big Picture
The iPad has many best-of-class features, but per-
haps its most unusual feature is the lack of a physi-
cal keyboard or stylus. Instead, it has a 9.7-inch
super-high-resolution touchscreen (132 pixels per
inch, if you care about such things) that you oper-
ate using a pointing device you’re already intimately
familiar with: your finger.
And what a display it is. We venture that you’ve never
seen a more beautiful screen on a handheld device other than
the iPhone 4.
