Well, it seems that the ingenuity of the technological world knows no bounds. As such, a product is being manufactured for the iPad that will more or less convert it into a NetBook.
While the idea may be ingenius, the practical application is questionable. The “iPad LapDock” is more or less going against everything that Apple has designed. First, it syncs with a built-in Bluetooth keyboard, then, it seats the iPad in portrait mode where the LCD laptop screen would normally be housed. In order to navigate around the iPhone OS, you would still need to use multi-touch features, so this hybrid, while seemingly ‘cool’ at first, is in fact just an aesthetic enhancement, and offers no real points in usability. Keep in mind, this product has not been released as of yet, so this is not a review, it is more of a opinion.
There is no set release date, and pricing has not been decided yet, but you can read more about the “iPad LapDock” at www.ipadlapdock.com
