Summary of what the iPad is....the iGoods and iBads

The giantic company-Apple- did it again on 27th January 2010 when then officially launched their new gadget. Before its launch, there were speculations of what it would be called; some called iSlate, other called it iTab, others iLaptop, but Apple's CEO Steve Job decided to call it the iPad. A mid all drama before its launch, 'they' clapped when it was announced and many were in a hurry to get one for themselves or for there loved ones.
The iPad, has many cool features, and many have called it the Gadget to beat in the year 2010. But what exactly does this iTablet form device have for you?

A 9.7 inch LED backlit hypersensitive multitouch screen isn't that bad! and with a resolution of of 1024*768 make all things possible. A maximum of 64 GB onboard memory is less than what many expect, other wanted 160 GB, but for normal usage of the iPad, then we can say it is satisfactory. It has a processor of 1Ghz apple A4 and runs only on apple's iPhone Operating System. When it was launched, they were two versions of it; the Wi-Fi iPad and the 3G iPad, that makes it flexible on what you want, but couldn't they have just combined the two and given us an all in one device?

Other features include the accelerometer,a digital compass, a user irreplaceable-Apple replacable built in Lithium-ion battery that run for 140 hrs on MP3 play, 10 hours on video play and a month on standby...what do you think? only Apple can be able to change your battery, at a fee of course! The screen is not fixed, and can rotate to 180' view so no worry on how you position yourself, it just comes. It also comes with already installed safari browser, Youtube application, iPod, iTune store, iPad application store, a mailing client, social networking application, video, photo, contacts and iBoook store, to mention just but afew.

Every good has its bad side, and iPad had its iBad side. First, many thought that as obvious it would support flash, but it doesn't, and this has lead to it receiving quite negative comments from bloggers. Apple claims that, flash is resiponsible for crashing of most of its OS and 'eats up' the battery life. But not to worry as HTML5 is coming...coming...No camera! what? and how am I supposed to video chat with my friends? well no more video chating on iPad please! Neither can you multitask on this iSlate You can only run one application at a time on your iPad.
iPad Dock
The iPad does not have a standard usb port bus but has BT that is compatible with most devices, and this means that if you will have to connect you usb devices to the iPad then you will have to part with a few dollars to purchase the iPad dock, which is bought separately. It has no microSD slot for extra memory. It will only run softwares downloaded form apples website. Easy to drop, uncomfortable when typing crown its iBad side. But the iGood side carries more than its iBad, so its not a device to joke with. let's go shopping!!

Where to fish for more crappies


Crappies are a type of panfish, they are silvery with black spots. Crappies are basically of two types; the black and white crappies They tend to be more aggressive and defensive than the other types the panfish family, hence the tendency to attack or bite anything that will try to come near them or near their nest. They are also more energetic and can bend or even break a weak fishing pole. This aggressiveness is therefore their weakest point for any angler, as they will bite the hook as soon a they see it near them. They are more active during the spring season as this is their time of spawning, hence you will end with more of them during this time.

Like any other fish type, it is difficult to find a school of Crappies in the open water unless on rare occasions when they are moving. This therefore means that, most of the crappies will be found near the shore unless during the summer season when they will be hiding from the direct sun rays of the summer sun when they will be found in deeper or cooler waters. In spring and most of the fall months, the crappies like hanging around the shore line. This is also because, it is at the shore line that all floating materials from the water mass are deposited and where there is an increased number insects or bugs falling directly into the waters.

Areas where a tree has fallen into the river or lake can also be a hot-spot for crappies. This is because, as the tree falls, it falls with the insects that were on it before it fell. Fallen trees also tend to attract other insects which fly over to suck the sap that drips from the trunks. This will therefore attract more crappies as they move over to look for more of the insects and bug and to suck on the sap too. Tree also have leaves, which can be edible to many crappies.

When walking along the shore, look out for the crappies’ nests. Throwing in your hook directly o the nest will produce a sudden strike of defense form the crappies. Fishing them from their nest is very easy and fun, but do not fish all of them as they probably have fingerlets which will need to be taken care of. The right bait will work magic, use a small live minnows, because crappies love eating them alot hence will rush immediately they spot one.

The main aim is to make the bait as realistic and natural as possible, if you can’t get minnows use any other that give a more natural look. Crappies have a slight tendency of watching before striking,and if you use a still bait, there is a high possibility that they will just stare at it.

To catch more, you need to be accurate in your timing. You will find more of them during the early morning hours just after sunrise and late in the even just before sunset. When hooking, be gentle or else you will rip off the soft palate of the fish, making the fish escape injured. Crappies are very tasty and fun to fish. They post a challenge which many anglers like to venture through, especially their aggressive nature.
