Technology remains the biggest thing that defines the twenty first century. Since inception, the world has never experienced any strong and widespread revolution than what we are having currently. This is the technology revolution. There seems to be a great desire by everyone to make their work easier by embracing technology. It has turned out that it is either someone embraces technology or is left out. All the industries, be it manufacturing, education, information, and all the others have been drastically changed by technology.

One of the main blessings in the technology world today is the third generation ipad, commonly called the ipad3 shown above. This is a tablet computer that also serves as a mobile phone. The ipad3 has been designed, manufactured and distributed by Apple Inc. It was produced as a developed version of the ipad2, which had been released earlier. The ipad3 greeted the market with a bang on March 16, 2012. The market reception was good, and it seemed like people were eagerly awaiting for its release. There had been leaked information from the company earlier about the anticipated release of the product. This had the effect of influencing the sales of the company positively, as well as raising people’s anticipation.
One of the best improvements made on the new ipad3 is on the screen. This new ipad comes with a retina display screen (Murray, 202). This means that the screen is very sharp in the way it displays contents. While other existing ipad models had a resolution of 1024*768, the one for the new ipad has been doubled. It has the highest resolution of about 2048*1536, which is currently the highest in the market. Images from the phone are very sharp and exciting. This is backed by a very sharp camera, inbuilt in the tablet. The five-megapixel camera sensor is used conveniently for both photos and videos.
The new ipad3 comes with an A5X processor. This means that the speed of this new tab is highly enhanced. With the 4G LTE connectivity, customers can be assured of very high speed connectivity. The combination of high processing power and high connectivity speed serves to present the user with a service that is just out of this world. This is like having a PC with you all the time. With a very thin body, and being very light, the ipad3 offers the best services in the current times.
The ipad3 comes with a few variations in the model, with countries like Canada and the U.S enjoying up to nine variations. In the rest of the world, the third generation ipad comes in around six variations. This tablet comes with the option of either a black or white glass panels on the front. This gives it a cool appearance, and most customers prefer either of the two colors. In terms of the memory capacity, the tablet is available in 16, 32 or 64 GB. This offers customers a large storage capacity for their applications and other uses. For the younger generation, this allows them to have an adequate storage for music and videos for entertainment.
The ipad3, which has a 10-hour battery live allows one to do a lot of things. The tablet is suitable for everyone, ranging from students to their lectures and business executives. The features offered by this product meet the needs of all, regardless of their ways of life. For students, the problem of carrying textbooks has been solved once and for all. The tablet comes with an improved technology to allow for digital textbook use. Flipping through a textbook has been made easier than before. This is done just by sliding a finger on the screen, when the book is highlighted. Diagrams in the book can also now be accessed with ease. The ipad3 also provides the option to rotate objects, especially 3D ones. Taking notes and highlighting text is also easy with the new ipad3.
In addition to that, reading class notes has never been this easy. The tablet allows one to take notes and refer to them later. Students can use their tablets instead of their computers. The advantage with this is that while PCs can pose challenges in carrying them around, the tablet is very portable. Downloading sample books or purchasing them is also possible with the new third generation ipad.
The ipad3 also comes as a blessing to business people and the working class. With this tablet, it is not necessary to physically attend meetings. You can conveniently convene or attend a meeting just by a touch of a few buttons. The tab offers a wide range of ways to virtually meet with others. This can either be by making video calls to clients or customers, or directly exchanging ideas with them. It offers wireless connectivity which allows such functions to be executed. For this reason, the tab can conveniently be turned into one’s office.
In addition to that, the phone offers the capability to create and edit documents. This can be for either word documents of pdf files. With this tablet, files which had already been stored can be retrieved and necessary changes made to them. You can conveniently fine-tune your speech or presentation from anywhere. This allows one a lot of flexibility, a feature that is not available with many other products. Ipad3 also allows for the creation of forms and excel-sheet document, giving one a wide range of required services. Making purchases and invoicing has been made easy by this feature.
Another very unique quality offered by this tablet is the ability to take notes with it. This can be of much benefit to both students and the working class. Ipad3 allows you to take your notes in the most preferable way you desire. This can either be by typing, dictating the notes or handwriting. This feature presents a lot of flexibility to the users. Drawing diagrams and other illustrations are made simple by this feature.
The new third generation ipad also has the capacity to analyze reports. This aids in faster and timely decision making for business men. The large screen of the tablet allows you to access all the files and reports from anywhere. The highly intelligent phone then facilitates the analysis of these reports just by the click of a button. This eliminates the need to remain glued on your computer. Important decisions can be made from the analyzed information, further propelling businesses.
The new ipad3 has offered the market some new features which were non-existent before. With the iPhoto, it allows you to custom your photos according to your preferences. Photo editing, organizing, and creating photo journals are all possible with this new technology. In addition to that, the tablet offers users the ability to independently make movies. The iMovie feature allows one to either shoot a HD video with the tab, or edit clips to their specification. This gives one all the fun they can want.
