iPad roundup

The apple iPad is coming this week and here are a few news related stories for your iPad news roundup. David Pogue writes two reviews for the NYTimes, one for techs and one for everyone else. I was interested to learn for the cellular model, (cellular iPads aren’t available until next month) "there’s no contract. By tapping a button in Settings, you can order up a month of unlimited cellular Internet service for $30. Or pay $15 for 250 megabytes of Internet data; when it runs out, you can either buy another 250 megs, or just upgrade to the unlimited plan for the month. Either way, you can cancel and rejoin as often as you want"

Also Apple has posted a list of sites that are iPad ready. And pcworld.com has announced the coming of the official Netflix app coming to apple iPad. "With the Netflix iPad app, you will be able to stream TV shows and movies from the service's catalog of instantly-available titles. It will have similar functionality to the desktop counterpart, allowing you to browse and manage your Netflix queue. It also lets you pick up watching a movie from where you left off on your computer or TV."
