    So announcing on 3/7 makes this an iPad 7 and thus a 7" iPad. That was easy.

    You have no way of knowing what the orientation is. It is actually wrong for every orientation. The spacing is much to big for portrait and slightly to small for landscape. This is most likely not a picture of an iPad. Not an umeetouched one.

    You asked for "a good program to lock apps or basic functions?" but your complaining because it can also be used with multiple iDevices in a corporate environment?

    You mentioned corp, not me.

    Keep in mind that Apple's promo material almost always uses product renderings rather than actual photos. This includes event invites as well as imagery on apple.com.



    I believe that the iPad3 (or whatever it is called) will have a retina display. However given past experience, the event announcement image isn't really confirmation of that speculation.

    The tool you linked is used for corp policy which is not what I wanted. I wanted something to make the ipad easy to use for multiple users as I stated more like for multiple users

    Depends on your needs. I tend to rely on high resolution textures which can't be captured in vector form.

    once you actually use it, you will realize that it is magical.

    Try Linux. It's not a consumer OS but it will give you more control. It seems like it might be the right choice for you.



    I wish there were an easier way for 3rd-party developers to check for content ratings and implement parental controls.



    We all have iPads -- and three are kids aged 11, 12, 16...



    We have a video collection of about 1,000 movies and TV Shows that have ratings.



    These are viewable on the AppleTV 2 via iTunes -- which has parental control based on metadata ratings from the iTunes store or MetaX (for ripped DVDs).



    However, we use StreamToMe to make these same videos available to each iPad. StreamToMe does not (cannot?) interrogate the metadata of these same videos.



    When StreamToMe first came available on the iPad, I contacted them to see if they could implement parental controls -- they said they would look into it.



    We (adults) would like to be able to set individual controls for each kid's iPad...



    As it is... we make everything available and consider it better than eliminating everything.



    The same goes for the web -- there is no way to prevent anyone from going to any web site...

    So 'to see and to touch'.

    Anything to read into the 'and to touch'?



    Just means they will have them ready to sell? Or???



    I imagine that they have integrated some sort of vibration feedback system. It will be used for responsive typing as well as to enhance porn surfing.

    No, the invitation just means you have to see it and touch it. As in; get your hands on it. Nothing more.

    Am I wrong in thinking that the photo in the article is of the invite? It says it is.
