Neither of the other two apps offer PDFs on the iPad, though Amazon and Barnes & Noble say they’re working on it. Also, Apple (AAPL) has harnessed the iPad’s accessibility features to allow its e-books to be read aloud, something I couldn’t make happen in the other two apps. But iBooks has some big downsides. The most important is that, being only five months old, it has a smaller catalog than its rivals—just 130,000 titles, versus around 700,000 for the Kindle app and about one million for the Nook app. Finding the Best Way to Read Books on an iPad | Walt Mossberg | Personal Technology | AllThingsD http://allthingsd.com/20100915/finding-the-best-way-to-read-books-on-an-ipad/

Anyone taking possession of a shiny new iPad this weekend may have noticed an odd message when connecting their gadget to some computers or USB chargers: the words Not charging in the iPad’s menu bar.

http://www.ubergizmo.com/2010/04/your-ipad-may-have-trouble-charging-on-certain-usb-ports/ Your iPad May Have Trouble Charging On Certain USB Ports Some of you who received just your iPad might have encountered some issues while trying to charge it, possibly getting the “not charging” message when you plug it into your laptop. Well, it appears that this has happened to quite a few people, and the reason behind it is the use of high-powered USB ports and low-powered USB ports on certain computers/laptops. Taking into account the iPad’s larger display, it’s obvious that it requires more juice, which your USB port may or may not be able to provide. Generally, when you’re iPad is plugged into a high-powered USB port, it gets enough juice to keep it charged, but if you happen to only have low-powered USB ports, your iPad will still be able to charge, provided that it’s on standby mode, so that it’s not using more power than it’s receiving.

iPad Keeps Up with Columnist's Speedy Typing - CBS News While I haven't been using Pages long enough to master all of its features, I do find it reasonably intuitive although a couple of times I had to refer to an Apple Web page for help. Unfortunately, because the iPad doesn't support multitasking, I couldn't do that on the iPad and work on the document at the same time, so I cheated by accessing the page on my PC. It was that Web page that helped me figure out how to export the document as a Microsoft Word file and e-mail it to myself. Because Pages doesn't have a traditional Mac or Windows-like menu, figuring out how to use some features is actually less intuitive than it might be on a typical computer software product though, to be fair, this is also the case with recent versions of Microsoft Word (and other Office applications) for Windows and Mac. I wound up using my PC to print out and file this story, but it was written on the iPad. http://www.cbsnews.com/2100-500163_162-6360802.html
