The iPad Project Book: Stuff you can do with your iPad
by Michael E. Cohen, Dennis R. Cohen, Lisa L. Spangenberg
Overview
Bridging the gap between the palm-sized iPod touch and a
full-sized computer, Apple's iPad offers enough screen area and
horsepower to perform the day-to-day tasks most people want to do.
Packed with practical knowledge, this book will walk readers
through how to manage their most common projects, from the simple
(setting up a calendar event) to the complex (planning a vacation)
and everything in between. Readers will learn to use the iPad tools
and applications by using them to create practical real-world
projects and to master everyday tasks.
In this practical hands-on guide, you’ll learn how
to
Organize a party: Set up the calendar event, create
invitations, invite attendees, and mail out the invites.
Build a recipe scrapbook: Write up recipes in Pages (or find
recipes via one of the useful recipe apps) and import pictures of
the finished dish to go with the recipe in the book. Even learn
iPad kitchen tips!
Plan a vacation: Buy tickets, find destination activities, and
map out directions.
Watch videos: Stream videos with Air Video, convert
high-quality movies from DVDs, and buy or rent videos from the
iTunes Store.
Get smart: Learn another language with one of the many
translation apps available, and build an illustrated deck of flash
cards with common words and phrases.
Plus many more useful projects—both big and small—
to help you do stuff with your iPad.
