How to install Flash on your iPad 2
March 11th, 2011
Posted in Apple News, Industry News
The iPad 2 bring us lots of exciting new features, but the Flash is still not supported by the iPad 2, which is disappointing. Since Steve Jobs do not allow iPad 2 to support Flash, let us achieve it by ourselves. It’s not point-and-click simple, but it’s not that hard, either.
First of all, you need to make sure your iPad is jailbroken. It’s pretty easy — just run Spirit and you’re done. Read more

Apple iPad 2 vs. Motorola Xoom
March 4th, 2011
Posted in Apple News, Industry News
On Tuesday, Steve Jobs has introduced the new iPad 2, which brings users some new features. Undoubtedly, the tablet industry will be highly competitive. Motorola has released the Xoom running Android Honeycomb. Which is better – the iPad 2 or the Xoom? Now I will compare the Apple iPad 2 and Motorola Xoom in details.
Hardware
The iPad 2 features a 1GHz dual-core A5 processor, and the Xoom has a 1GHz dual-core Nvidia Tegra 2 processor. All processors can meet regular needs. Though we have no idea of the iPad 2’s RAM, rumors shows that the RAM of iPad 2 is 512MB, which is only half of the Xoom’s 1GB RAM.
Apple provides users with three actual storages of iPad 2 – 16GB, 32GB, and 64GB. Xoom only get a 32GB of storage capacity. There is a MicroSD card slot on the device, which could support memory cards up to 32GB.
Screen
Though people believed that iPad 2 would feature an iPhone 4-style Retina display. With the arrival of iPad 2, we are disappointed that the iPad 2 features the same LED backlit 9.7-inch screen with a resolution of 1024 x 768.
The Xoom has a 10.1-inche screen with 1280 x 800 pixels. Also the Xoom’s 16: 9 aspect ratio is better for watching HD-widescreen content.
Cameras
Both the iPad 2 and Xoom feature two cameras –one on the front and one on the back. Apple did not give us the specifics of its cameras, from which we can figure out that the cameras are not so powerful. The only thing we could know is that the iPad 2 rear camera can record 720p video.
While, Motorola Xoom has a competitive 2-megapixel front camera, a solid 5-megapixel rear camera, and a dual-LED flash.
Apps
Undoubtedly, iPad 2 have much more Apps than Xoom. The iPad has been out almost a full year, and there are roughly 65,000 apps designed for it. All these Apps can run perfectly on the new iPad 2.
While Motorola Xoom is the first tablet featuring Android Honeycomb, which is specified customized Android OS for tablet PC. And there are less than 100 tablet-specific apps, which is miserable compared with iPad 2 apps.
However, as time goes by, the Android tablet-specific apps will catch on rapidly, which has been proved on Android phones.
Apple Unveils iPad 2
March 3rd, 2011
Posted in Apple News, Industry News
On Tuesday, Apple unveils the long-awaited iPad 2 on the media event. This iPad 2 is 33 percent thinner and up to 15 percent lighter. However, it still has the same amazing 10-hour battery life as the original iPad.
The same as the first iPad version, the new iPad 2 is equipped with a 9.7 inch IPS screen. And the resolution is still 1024×768.
To bring users with more exciting experience while surfing the Internet, watching movies, etc., this iPad 2 possesses a dual-core A5 CPU. Also it features a 9X faster graphics, which can make playing games on iPad smoother and more realistic.
One of the high points of the iPad 2 is that it has two cameras on iPad — one on the front and one on the back. Then users can have a FaceTime video calling with friends and record whatever you are seeing. The front-facing camera has a VGA (640 by 480 pixel) resolution, while the back one offers a higher 720p (720 by 1028 pixel) resolution. The front can focus automatically; the back has a fixed focus.
Also Apple designed an iPad Smart Cover for the iPad 2. It adopts smart magnetic technology, which can make iPad Smart Cover fall perfectly into place to protect your iPad screen without adding bulk to its thin, light design.
Once you open the Smart Cover, the iPad will wakes up instantly; after you close it, your iPad goes to sleep automatically. And it can transform to suit for whatever you do with your iPad 2. Apple provides users with 10 colors of the iPad Smart Cover.
This iPad 2 runs the latest iOS 4.3 and is also available with 3G connectivity on either AT&T or Verizon Wireless networks.
Aiseesoft is preparing the most professional iPad 2 assistant tools, such as iPad 2 Video Converter, DVD to iPad 2 Converter, iPad 2 Transfer, Blu-ray to iPad 2 Ripper, etc. to help users fully enjoy the new iPad 2.
