#Review devonthink pro ipad update#

That’s noticeable for the photos I’ve imported, which look good on the iPad but don’t have the full detail shown on the iMac (which is likely in part due to the ‘optimization’ of the photos by iTunes as they are synched to the iPad).īut as you said, the iBook reader on the iPad is “amazing” with very readable text - as is Amazon’s 7 April update of the Kindle app for iPad.įor the heck of it, and to get slightly back on topic, I uploaded the ‘In Control’ DEVONthink ebook to iDisk, then used the GoodReader app for iPad to download it. Sandy, I agree that the iPad display doesn’t have the resolution of my 27-inch iMac.

Worst of all, it doesn’t run full OS X Snow Leopard and doesn’t have a USB port, so I can’t install DEVONthink Pro Office and hook up a portable ScanSnap.īut watch for a mobile version of DEVONthink! The screen is hard to read in direct sunlight.

Charge it at night and it’s good for a full day’s work on battery power, and then some. The onscreen keyboard is very usable, although I’ve ordered the wireless keyboard dock for heavy duty text entry.īattery life is awesome, one of the features that has surprised me – more than.ten hours with WiFi turned on and running the iPad through all of it’s paces, including a full-length movie. Mail, Safari, Pages and Numbers for the iPad are familiar, although redone for the touchscreen environment. The iPad screen is certainly crisper than my first-generation MacBook Pro’s screen.

I’ve already finished a book purchased from the iBook offerings and found it very comfortable (although I turn down the brightness a bit for reading, by comparison to looking at pictures and movies). I haven’t compared the specs on pixel size and density of the MacBook Pro and iPad screens, but you needn’t worry about the crispness of text on the iPad.

Have seen a few posts online in various forums from some who feel it’s not quite as crisp as, say, a newish Macbook Pro. Bill, keep us posted on how you find the screen for reading.
