A Training Day at "the Apple store"



When my brother and son heard that I was headed to Boston this weekend, they knew I'd be at the Apple on Boylston. Thanks to Apple specialist's Nick, I learned so much and am convinced the iPAD is a great innovation, an America's economy booster,  and a life changing tool. It is opening jobs for app makers, gadget bag designers, and forcing people in all professions to ask "how can this tool change my life to be more productive, enriched, and fun"?

A prospective customer who is an architect creates with Sketchup (Google's 3D modeling program), visits a site, gets a pic, and writes a report- loved the on-site portability of an iPad (altho an iPAD camera would be faster). 
For a teacher and parent, iPAD gives you one free book, "Winnie the Pooh" and sets you on your way to download from iBook apps on Ipad with library, bookmark sections, dictionary look-up, and google search for more in-depth explanations.  I wonder if it will read aloud to you... hmmm.

I love watching sports and MLB.com - gives you REAL time plays of games in action -animated online.
NETFLIX - well, a $9.00 subscription offers you unlimited viewing of VERY Clear films on the iPAD.

There is more -- for another blog.. right now, I am looking up more apps for when it comes.
Yes, I do love iPAD.
