IPad Charging Problem / Slow Charging ? Here's the Fix

Apple’s iPad has already gone through four revisions, with a fifth iPad likely to be launched soon. As well as its superb design and easy-to-use software, it also lasts longer than most tablets, with Apple claiming 10 hours of battery life, even for the newer models with Retina screens. Compared to an  iPhone , the iPad needs more power to charge it, which is why Apple includes a beefier power supply in the box. The iPhone charger produces 1A, but the iPad version kicks out 2.1A. You can still use an iPhone charger (shown below) to charge your iPad, but it will take around twice as long compared to using the 2.1A charger. If this isn’t the reason your iPad is charging slowly, bear in mind that it does take a long time to fully charge an iPad from 0% to 100%. The iPad 2 takes around 4 hours using the official Apple charger, which is a fair amount of time, but since the iPad 3 and 4 have roughly 70% more capacity in their batteries, they take around 7 hours to char...

Microsoft's Surface tablet vs. the iPad - Review

The perceived success or failure of what was shown is obviously subjective, and comes down to whether or not you believe in what Microsoft is showing. Moreover, can Microsoft's strategy with the Surface -- and all Windows 8 tablets, for that matter -- succeed in not just being a No. 2 to the iPad, but in being a true iPad rival? As a user of both the iPad and previous Windows tablets, I think it comes down to these key points. Keyboard/touch-pad productivity The Surface event spent a large amount of time on the Touch Cover and Type Cover, innovative Smart Cover-like accessories that have a soft or physical keyboard and, in the case of the Type Cover, a touch pad bonded to one side. The iPad can support a wide variety of Bluetooth keyboards and cases like the similar Ultrathin Keyboard Cover, but no touch pad or mouse. That hampers the iPad's utility as a true laptop replacement, but would Microsoft's product make for a vastly improved experience? There...

If you’ve been using iOS 6 beta, they you’re probably pretty familiar with the default Passbook screen that prompts you to open the App Store. Prior to iOS 6′s release just a few hours ago, the App Store page wouldn’t load, or at the very most remained blank.   Screenshots from IPhone... Today, all of that changes.
