The iPad hasn’t been out long, but there are already more than 1,000 specially catered apps for the device and more inundation in by the hour. While Apple’s iPad is an impossibly beautiful tablet computer, the intensity to unlock its yet-unrealized potential is held by a group of third-party app developers. They are now in a race, an e-gold rush of sorts, to develop apps that best utilize the iPad’s innovative multi-touch display and offer an experience worth charging for.
Several blogs obtained alleged screenshots of a variety of “upcoming” iPad applications.
To be clear, the iPad apps here have not been confirmed by Apple or the vendors themselves. With that said, let’s take a look at what may be coming up for the iPad.
