Week of March 29, 2010
In the News: Apple, the company that, decades ago, brought you the Apple II C, recently unveiled its latest creation. Apple’s iPad, which starts at $499, will be available in early April. Weighing less than two pounds, this tablet computer is destined to become a competitor to Amazon’s Kindle, the Sony Reader, and Barnes and Noble’s Nook, not to mention the many netbooks that are on the market. As it becomes yet another high-tech gadget in our overly-saturated digital world, will the iPad be THE ONE that everyone has to have? What will be next?
