Apple - iPad


The best way to experience the web, email, photos and video. Hands down.

All of the built-in apps on iPad were designed from the ground up to take advantage of the large Multi-Touch screen and advanced capabilities of iPad. And they work in any orientation. So you can do things with these apps that you can’t do on any other device.


Safari

Facetime - Phone calls like you never seen before.


Phone calls like you never seen before.

People have been dreaming about video calling for decades. iPhone 4 makes it a reality. With the tap of a button, you can wave hello to your kids, share a smile from across the globe, or watch your best friend laugh at your stories --- iPhone 4 to iPhone 4 or to the new iPod touch over Wi-Fi. No other phone makes staying in touch this much fun.






One-tap simple.

FaceTime works right out of the box - no need to set up a special account or screen name. And using it is as easy as it gets. Let's say you want to start a video call with your Contacts and tap the FaceTime button. Or maybe you're already talking on a voice call with her, iPhone 4 to iPhone 4, and you want to switch to video. Just tap the FaceTime button on the screen. Either way, an invitation pops up on her screen asking if she wants to join you. When she accepts, the video call begins, it's all perfectly seamless. And it works in both portrait and landscape modes.






Two cameras made for video calling.

iPhone 4 has two built-in cameras, one on the front above the display and one on the back next to the LED flash. The front camera has been tuned for FaceTime. It has just the right field of view and focal length to focus on your face at arm's length. So it always presents you in the best possible light.







Share what you see with the back camera.

Imagine your sister is away at school and can't make it to your son's birthday. So you're cheering her up with a FaceTime call. As the cupcakes come out, your son's eyes light up, and you just have to share it. Tap a button, and before you can say, "Make a wish," iPhone 4 switches to the back camera, and to the birthday boy's big moment. Another tap switches back to the front camera and to you. Simple, fast, and fun.

Apple iPad


Safari - The best way to see site


Get the whole story.
The Safari web browser on iPad puts the Internet in your hands — literally. View whole web pages in portrait or landscape on the large Multi-Touch screen with vibrant color and sharp text at a size that’s actually readable. When you rotate iPad to landscape, the page you’re viewing rotates, too, then expands to fit the display.




Let your fingers do the surfing.

With iPad, navigating the web has never been easier or more intuitive, because you use the most natural pointing device there is: your finger. Scroll through a page just by flicking up or down on the screen. Double-tap a section on a page to enlarge or shrink it. Or pinch to zoom in or out. When you touch and hold a link, Safari shows you the URL so you know before you go. There’s also a handy thumbnail view that shows all your open pages in a grid, so you can quickly move from one page to the next.


Built for speed.

Safari takes full advantage of the powerful technology built into iPad. It connects to the web via high-speed 802.11n Wi-Fi. And when you’re away from a Wi-Fi network, you can surf from just about anywhere with optional 3G networking.* Because Safari supports the latest web video and audio innovations in HTML5, you can enjoy the rich multimedia experience you expect from the Internet. Safari plays compatible video right in the page, or you can double-tap a video to play it full screen.




Your favorites at your fingertips.

You

can sy

nc your bookmarks from your Mac or PC, and add even more right from your iPad. A handy bookmarks view makes it easy to access your f

avorite sites. Google, Yahoo!, and Bing searching is built in, so it’s easy to find what you’re looking for. And when you want to enter a URL, fill out a form, or search for text within a page, the big onscreen keyboard appears. If you check the same websites every day, you can even create icons on the Home screen that let you access them with a single tap.
