Re: The Apple iPad Thread

Haven't looked very hard for browsers yet, I must admit ... I had a cursory search then assumed there were none to be found. As for web apps, well I think it's a real shame that so many content providers are forced to produce individual branded apps rather than simply providing everything through the browser. It clutters the iPad desktop (even if you do use folders, and personally I think those look a bit ropey anyway) and presumably increases the provider's development costs. Plus, for the time being, the BBC iPad app is a very, very cut own version of their website, with far fewer news videos attached to stories than you get on the website. It is badly laid out and seems to be different to the website purely for the sake of being different. Sky's news app is a lot better mind you.
