The new iPad runs the iPhone OS and thats the problem

By Jay Garmon

No matter how excited you are about the 9.7-inch HD display, capacitive multitouch interface, or staggeringly cheap 3G data plans promised by Apples iPad, theres one feature thats billed as a benefit but may prove to be more of a bug: The iPad runs the iPhone OS. On the surface this seems like shrewd platform cross-compatibility, but do you really want to pay between $499 and $829 (plus data plan) for a device that actually does less -- as in no built-in camera, no phone -- than your iPhone?

While you may be smiling inwardly at the notion of getting all your existing iPhone apps ported to your iPad for free (youve already paid for them), theres a question of whether anyone really wants to run apps designed for a phone-sized screen on a tablet-sized display. During Steve Jobss demo today, we saw this phenomenon in action. Either the iPhone app ran at native resolution as a floating block inside a lot of blank screen real estate, or the iPad upscaled the app to its full screen resolution, presenting you with ridiculously oversized icons and buttons. Wef one could run multiple iPhone apps side by side on the iPad, that would be worth talking about, but that brings me to the second problem with building an iPhone OS-based tablet: No multithreading.

The iPhone OS cant run background processes. Wet cant have two apps open at the same time. You cant chat while watching a video. You cant read the New York Times while listening to Pandora. You cant toggle between a word processor and a spreadsheet, or a Web browser and a presentation. Thus, while you can get an iPad version of iWork for $30 ($9.99 each for Pages, Numbers and Keynote), you wont be using any of those apps simultaneously -- which is how many of us work best. Heres betting that most iPad adopters will want to rebuy most of their apps in iPad versions, which makes me wonder why the iPad couldnt get its own multithreaded OS to begin with.

The other major drawback to the iPads iPhone OS-basis is a lack of support for Adobe Flash. Well accept not being able to render highly interactive Flash Web sites on my phone, but on a high-end media consumption device like the iPad We should be able to open every Web site on the planet. This Flash incompatibility also bans any Web video player that isnt Quicktime or Youtube. Sorry budding filmmakers, but there will be no Vimeo or Hulu or Yahoo Video for you on the iPad. Jobs himself showed a failed Flashplayer icon during his Web surfing demo today, so clearly Steve isnt perturbed by this feature limitation, which wont be solved until HTML5 reaches full adoption -- months or years from now.

On the bright side, the iPad running the iPhone OS does mean that the new iBook store will be cross-compatible with the iPhone, which is great news for iPhone owners. The iBook store will sell ePub versions of books from major publishers, which means digital reading just got a boost, if only because iBooks will appear on the worlds most popular mobile phone. That said, We dont expect the iBookstore to truly revolutionize publishing, both because the $14.99 price point suggested for iBook titles is still too high, and because We cant rip my existing dead-tree books to the platform. While almost anyone can copy a CD into iTunes easily, almost no one can scan in paperbacks to iBooks with any speed or grace. At $14.99 each Wem not going to rebuy all my favorite books for the iPad.

Now that the iPad SDK is in the wild, We expect developers to create new and innovative applications and content that truly take advantage of the iPad form factor, display, and interface. Until those iPad-native apps show up, however, Well reserve judgment as to whether the iPad is the successor to the glorious iPhone, or the ignominious Newton.

Toshiba’s New Qosmio is Sure to Please Entertainment Fans

The latest edition to the Toshiba line of laptops was released earlier this month, and it incorporates a high end design that is sure to make both gamers and movie lovers quiver with delight. Both the Toshiba Qosmio X770 and X770 3D were released at Computex, and each comes with updated graphics, memory, and processing capabilities.
The Qosmio X770 is vying to be the best gaming laptop now on the market. The new laptop boasts either the Intel Core i5 or i7 CPU and comes standard with Nvidia discrete graphics, and not just any Nvidia graphics, but the new and highly regarded GeForce GTX 560M graphics which offer movie watchers and gamers a clarity they aren’t used to finding in a laptop. To make their entertainment experience more enjoyable, the Qosmio also provides users with Harman/ Kardon speakers and a subwoofer and sound enhancement technologies.

The Qosmio X770 also affords buyers the options to include a Blu-Ray player or Bluetooth 3.0 within their laptops.
Other features that place the Qosmio ahead of recent competition, and that come standard with these laptops are:
• USB 3.0 connectivity
• 1.5 GB dedicated solely to video memory
• 8 GB of RAM
• 1 TB of hard drive storage
For those more interested in streaming or watching the latest movies on their laptops, there is also a 3D version of the Qosmio. The 3-D version comes with Nvidia 3-D vision technology with a 120Hz 1080p display and a pair of wireless active shutter glasses, a Blu-ray player, and 3DTV output, and both it and the non 3D version come standard with a massive 17.3 inch screen.
Both models are also relatively affordable considering the newer technologies that are to be incorporated into both. The Qosmio X770 starts at only $1,199.99 and the X770 3D will start at $1,899.99. The affordable prices allow entertainment lovers to purchase the new laptop without having to sacrifice indulging in the latest games or movies.
