Apple iPad is a Magical Device ,as said by Apple. The iPad is a tool entertainment that is good for watching videos, looking at your photos, playing your favorite games, catching up with your best friends on Facebook, Orkut and Twitter, surfing the web and email.

Apple iPad is actually a tablet computer by Apple Inc. marketed particularly as a platform for audio, video and other visual media such as books, music, games and web contents like browsing and e-mails.

Like other Apple products, (iPhone, iPods) iPad is supported with and controlled by multi-touch display. This feature really distinguished the Apple iPad from most tablet computers.
