Apple iPad unboxing

2010-04-02
hi I'm Natali del Conte with Sina TV and this is your unboxing of the much anticipated Apple iPad this is the Wi-Fi only version so let's go ahead and take it out of the box it comes with this protective case there's a lot of fingerprints online so it looks like someone has been playing with it but it still does have the plastic on it okay let's take this plastic off and it's very shiny and new so they say it weighs one and a half pounds and the screen is nine point seven inches diagonally from here to here so let's go ahead and put that down and see what else comes with it so we've got a standard iPod charger USB port and the AC power adapter okay in this envelope if you have some information about our iPad how to turn it off what the different buttons are just a little quick how-to card and then the information guide and some Apple stickers under year it's not quite so easy to get under actually there's nothing under here so all of this is kind of empty space which is unusual for an Apple product well let's turn it on for the first time in see how it works let's go ahead and slide to unlock so we push the power button at the bottom and slide it just like an iPod Touch or an iPhone the home screen has the standard operating system applications that we expect such as calendar and contacts YouTube videos it also has I work applications that have been optimized for iPad such as keynote and pages and the iBook store which is new to Apple so this is the place where we're going to be able to find all of our books in a library just like this you tap one to open it and then you can just drag the pastries across and drag them right back which is very nice on the side you can see there's a screen rotation lock on the top so if you don't want it to change tation from landscape to portrait you can lock that and then these buttons here are volume up and down so first impression is that it looks exactly like it's supposed to it's very elegant and responsive and basically like an iPod Touch or an iPhone we've also got some peripherals so let's take a look at those the iPad doesn't come with these peripherals that we have them here anyway in case you want them we have a case a dock and a USB power adapter so let's open up this case and see what it looks like this is Apple's version although we already know that there will be third-party at versions of the iPad case we'll take it out of the plastic and try it on for size so there we go with the case on let's go ahead and stand it up this dock also comes separate this is for sitting your iPad down on a desk the iPad does come with a power adapter but if you need a longer cord you can always buy this as a 10 watt USB power adapter so it's got a longer cord it's gonna be for you to sit it down on the floor or something and string this power to your couch from your wall outlet or something like that so when you buy an iPad you get basically the iPad the manuals the charger and the power adapter you do not get this case this is extra but it's very nice case if you don't like it you can always buy third party cases if you want a dock that also is extra this is what the dock looks like and again if you want an extra power charger with a longer cord you can buy that extra as well so that is your unboxing of the brand new Apple iPad this is the Wi-Fi version not the 3G version which comes out in a few weeks i'm natali del conte with CNET TV thank you for watching
