Apple Event on 7 March

The Loop has reported Apple is having a media event on 7 March, 2012.

Image from The Loop

From the image of the invitation, it looks like that the next iPad has no home button at all. It says

We have something you really have to see. And Touch.

Let’s see if there’s a 7 inch iPad 3 (no likely) and whether  the home button is really gone on the next iPad. iPad 3 with Quad core A5X & A6 chip, 4G LTE, bla bla bla… keeps flooding the web these few days.

Hands on a real iPad briefly for a few minutes. Web browsing is very snappy. Can’t tell much about other aspects though and it’s not in my hands then LOL

iPad arrives in Hong Kong 2 days after its grand launch in US

iPad is probably great but no Traditional Chinese input yet (read the last point of Labguages on Tech Spec) and now people are paying 60-70% more for the parallel import iPad?! WTF

I can understand buying expensive products without warranty just for the cool factor. But I don’t get it when the product has no Traditional Chinese support for someone living in Hong Kong. How on Earth cam you Google for local stuff?! Are those people living in Simplified Chinese world only?!

Read the AppleDaily news about the iPad price in Mongkok.

Good view on Flash & iPad from Zeldman

Here’s a good read from Zeldman.com – “Flash, iPad, Standards“. Will this be the true wake up calls for those creating non-accessible web and for those who paid the minimal fee to create their corporate non-accessible web sites? We’ll see about that and I hope this will really happen as a web professional.

In the article, it mentions Apple not putting Flash onto iPhone and iPad isn’t about revenge. It occurs to me killing Newton MessagePad and reinventing another personal device is a revenge from Uncle Stevie J to John Sculley 8p
