01 | Autor: The iPad for Academics
Teachers and students have always been an foremost market for Apple — a fact made clear by the tremendous amount of counterpart and polish that went into the new education website the company recently unveiled. But even-handedly: What do Apple’s slickly produced promo videos of fetching multicultural elementary schoolers have to do with us? And just how relevant is their newly-released iPad for what we do? Do academics in the end need to shell out five hundred bucks for what is essentially a big iPod arouse?
After having used an iPad shortly since its release I can safely say that the crest — or another one like it — deserves to become an important part of the learned’s arsenal of gadgets. Choosing to plop down the money for an iPad is like Ingrid Bergman’s ruefulness over leaving Casablanca with Humphrey Bogart. You will do it: not today, not tomorrow, but at once — and for the rest of your life.
At base the iPad is an anything box that replaces a professedly endless plethora of other things you already own: It's a TV, a radio, an MP3 player, a compass, a flashlight, a standing, a deck of cards, a calculator, a photo album, an siren clock, a Bible, the Talmud (yes, the Talmud has been ported to the iPad)... the bibliography goes on and on. The crucial question for academics is: What in our current arsenal will the iPad repay? After using the device, the answer surprised me: the iPad makes a wretched computer replacement, but it does a great job of replacing paper.
