iPad Delay: End of May for world release, month late
Author: Michael Evans
Aw shucks, just when I was booking my place in the queue at the London Regent Street Apple Store, I hear from a BBC report that Apple is delaying the world release of the iPad until the end of May. They will start taking pre-orders on May 10. The company has blamed the delay on the demand in the US which, it says, has been "surprisingly strong". It's also a bit unfair on those of us who live outside the USA.
The BBC mentioned that hundreds of new iPad owners complained about connection problems on the Apple support pages shortly after the launch on April 3. Apple suggested a fix, but problems are still being reported according to the BBC. It quotes one complainant: "Nothing works. It connects when it wants and the bars go up and down when I sit in the same spot in my house.
However, while we may infer that the delay could be something to do with this problem--and the need to get it right--one analyst, Ian Fogg from Forrester Research told BBC News that Apple's reason for the delay was "credible."

Handwriting: Keeping the flag flying for the humble notebook
Handwriting, notebooks, pens, all are objects of fascination to me. I love to see beautiful script and wish that my skills had improved rather than deteriorated in the face of technological convenience. Patrick Rhone, who writes The Cramped, a blog dedicated to all things connected with writing, does wonders in promoting a return to more traditional methods of recording our thoughts.
