New iPad is the 'epitome' of what a tablet should be

After the loss of Steve Jobs in October, there was concern that Apple would lose its way. The arrival of the new iPad shows those fears were unfounded; it remains the epitome of what a tablet computer should be.

10 apps every iPad user should own

There are many thousands of apps available. (As Apple's advertising campaign says, "There's an app for that.") But some apps are simply must-haves -- whether for their functionality, interface brilliance, or sheer entertainment factor.

Finally: A truly magical iPad

One of the least appreciated new wireless features brings entirely new capabilities to the iPad, says columnist Mike Elgan. And he's not talking about LTE.

Like the iPad 2 before it, the new iPad is not a re-thinking of the original concept. Instead, Apple chose to focus on a few areas of improvement while keeping the overall package the same. In this case, Apple executes to perfection.

'Siri, I have some some suggestions for you'

Although Siri, Apple's voice-controlled personal assistant, isn't included on the new iPad, that's not a bad thing, says columnist Michael deAgonia. The technology still needs to mature before being rolled out to millions of more users.

Will this be the year of Apple in the enterprise?

All of the big trends in IT right now -- cloud computing, mobile solutions and the consumerization of IT -- look good for Apple as it slowly worms its way into the enterprise. Columnist Ryan Faas explains why it's happening now.

Are Google and Apple really 'monopolies'?

Recent charges claiming that Google or Apple are monopolies, are monopolistic or wield monopoly power are simply false. And those who use the M word about these companies are misleading you, writes columnist Mike Elgan.
