HISTORY: First iPad Ads During Oscars

It was so cool last night while watching the Oscars to actually witness history when Kera and I saw our first iPad Apps.  After completing the the book last week:  iPhone and iPad Apps for Absolute Beginners, it was awesome to see how the advertising machine is getting in gear to rip out the iPad just in time for the book. The ad adheres to the same Apple formula featuring unidentified users navigating the iPad with catchy music.  Among the iPad functions highlighted by Apple in the ad: Displaying newspaper articles and e-books, playing movies, showing maps and pictures and typing on the iPad’s touch-screen keyboard.
