All New Ipad2 2011

Apple's iPad 2 is an easy tablet to review is somewhat of an understatement. The device, a follow up to last year's wildly successful (and currently market-defining) iPad, is nearly identical when it comes to software, and though improved, closely related on the hardware side as well.

With a 9.7-inch, 1024 x 768 display, the general size and shape of the device has remained the same, and though inside there's a new dual core A5 CPU, more memory, and a pair of new cameras, most of the iPad 2's changes are cosmetic. Still, the previous tablet soared far above most of its competitors when it came to the quality of both the hardware (if not its raw specs) and its software selection 

something Apple still stands head and shoulders over its adversaries on. So this new model, a thinner, sleeker, faster variant of the original may not be breaking lots of new ground, but it's already at the front of the pack. But is the iPad 2 worth an upgrade for those that took the plunge on the first generation.

New Ipad 2011

Now that news related to the iPhone 4 launch has cooled down, iPad rumors are heating up. The latest suggest a speedier and possibly smaller-screened tablet device from Apple as early as January.
Digitimes claims to have the drop on Apple's first revision to the wildly successful iPad. According to the report, Apple will beef up the speed of the iPad by swapping the Apple-built A4 processor with a Cortex-A9 and replacing the 256MB of RAM with the same 512MB currently found in the iPhone 4.
Interestingly, the report also claims that Apple will release a 7-inch version of the iPad to complement the current 9.7-inch screen. The smaller screen will maintain the 1,024x768-pixel resolution currently found on the first-generation iPad.
Though not specifically mentioned in by Digitimes, one wonders if Retina Display technology will be used in new iPads. The devices currently only boast a pixel density of 132 ppi (compared with the sultry 326 ppi included on the iPhone 4).
The best part? You may be able to swipe your fingers across one in the first quarter of 2011.

Will Apple release a 7-inch display early next year?

In current (and official) iPad news, Apple has turned on the Mobile Genius App-finding feature for iPad apps in the App Store. You can find the Genius tab on the bottom toolbar to the far right after opening the App Store on your iPad. If you're stuck trying to sort through the more than 200,000 apps available on the App Store, the Genius feature can help you find apps based on those you currently own.
How do the latest iPad rumors strike you? Would you buy the smaller 7-inch screen or the current size? Let us know in the comments!

try new office 2010

Office 2010 hit the shelves yesterday, and Office remains a not-cheap money maker for Microsoft. Here's a reminder of how you can try out any version of Office 2010 free for 60 days—and then, with software, maybe more.
We've been peeking at, poking around, and taking screenshots of Office 2010 since it started showing up on the web, legitimate release and otherwise. After a hands-on look, a Q&A about whether it's worth an Office upgrade, a showdown of Office Web Apps versus Google Docs, and even a comparison of Office to its own Web Apps, it's pretty much up to you, the license buyer, to determine if Office 2010 is worth the full freight.

Luckily, those in the U.S. and U.S. territories can grab a free trial product key at the link below, good for 60 days of free use. After those 60 days—or 30 days with a standard, installed-but-not-licensed copy—you'll start getting nagged and shut down on without a registration. This trial extender software can give you up to six 30-day reprieves, or "rearms," as we've previously mentioned.
Grab the trial, keep it running, and decide for yourself. What have you thought of Office 2010 so far, now that you've had a chance to kick the tires a bit?
