The first iPad was released April 3rd 2010. 3 years already? iPads have been embedded into our daily lives it feels like they have been around forever. The functions of the iPad have been integrated in so many ways like education, business, cooking, sports, news, agriculture, photography and social media. From generation to generation, the iPad has been revamped extensively. Improvements include retina display, higher megapixel cameras, faster processor. The software is incredible and very powerful. After 1 month of release, Apple had sold a million iPads. After 80 days over 3 million were sold.
The iPad is so ingrained in to our minds that it's part of our normal routines. For a lot of people, like myself, reading the iPad in the morning or before we go to sleep is the norm. Apple has done a great job with implementing this product as not just a "new product", but more as a regular. News and social media apps are ones that people tend to use on a daily schedule. As of January 2013, 775,000 apps have been released into the app store.

Competitors such as Samsung, and HTC have released similar products but they don't have the same foundation as "Apple". Apple. Customers see "Apple" and are automatically attracted to what they have to offer, just because of the name. This may be because of their wider variety of previous products that have strove in their category. The design and engineering in this product is simple, yet the features are immense. "Design is a funny word. Some people think design means how it looks. But of course, if you dig deeper, it's really how it works". - Steve Jobs, founder of Apple.
The iPad has certainly changed the face of modern technology in today's society. The impact has been huge
