With just 60 days to go until the Apple iPad launch, and following a US-only launch event, there is much speculation as to where the UK sits with the Apple iPad. Both with regards to the release date, and the price.

First, let’s take a look at the release date. Apple announced “within 60 days” for the WiFi model, and “within 90 days” for the 3G model. We assume that the 3G model will take slightly longer because it has to undergo FCC certification in the United States.

Steve Jobs tonight unveiled Apple’s latest gadget – the ‘magical and revolutionary’ iPad.

He told an expectant audience of technology experts that the tablet computer was a third type of gadget that would plug the gap between a laptop and a mobile.

‘It’s so much more intimate than a laptop and so much more capable than a smart phone,’ he said before detailing what tasks it would do.

‘Browsing the web. Doing email. Enjoying and sharing pics. Watching videos. Enjoying music. Playing games. Reading ebooks,’he said.

The iPad has a touchscreen keyboard that is almost full-size and is a ‘dream to type on’ according to Mr Jobs.

‘It’s very thin – you can change the homescreen to whatever you want. What this device does is extraordinary. You can browse the web with it. It’s the best web experience you’ve ever had. Read the rest of this entry »

My new TV set up just didn’t look right with a white Wii and I was reluctant to sell it and buy a black one.  The answer was to buy an i-Case “Dark Knight” replacement for roughly £25.

Make sure the all important tool/screwdriver is included when you buy.  All you then need is a tutorial, patience beyond what is humanly possible and/or a swear-box.  Fifty screws undone and retightended later and your Wii will have a shiny black case like mine.  I was impressed with the tutorial overall but did end up finding I had not reinstalled one of the bits.

I’m not sure exactly what this is but if I had to guess, would say it was something to do with the heat sink/ventilation/fan.  The Wii is working and has been rigorously tested but I guess time will tell.

If anyone out there does know what the part is and where it goes, then please leave a comment, thanks.

In conclusion, I would warn people to make sure they realise what is required before changing their case but if you have the confidence to give it a go and take your time, then it is a better option than buying a new Wii.   I took the risk because I got my Wii for free and didn’t have so much to lose.
