A few Negatives to iPad : You cant run a real OS on this. You can’t multi-task, No flash support,there’s no camera, could not be connected to a larger display.
All of the built-in apps on iPad were designed from the ground up to take advantage of the large Multi-Touch screen. And they work in any orientation. So you can do things with these that apps you can’t do on any other device.These include Safari, Mail, Photos, Youtube, iPod, iTunes, App store, iBooks, Maps, Notes, Calender & Contacts.
And this is the pricing for this Big version of iPhone. Starting at just $499 this device is available for as high as $829.
