On Sunday (4/25/10) Mike Q shared his initial impressions after some hands-on time with an iPad. Mike does a great job describing the device along with some of his favorite applications for the device. Here’s some of the questions he answers:

• So Mike you broke down and got an iPad - which one did you get?
• Why only 16 gig?
• So how long have you had it?
• So give us some of your impressions. How is the battery life?
• What about the screen?
• What about the keyboard?
• How much is the case?
• Did you get any other peripherals? Can you connect it to a projector for presentations?
• Have you been to the app store? What are some of your favorites so far?
• What do iPhone apps look like on the iPad?
• OK, how about some apps? Let's start with the iWork suite.
• So what's your assessment of these apps?
• What about Keynote?
• Have you moved your Kindle content over? And, speaking of the Kindle – I know you have a first generation one – how do they compare as a reader?
• What about some quick hits on some apps that you've found interesting ?
• Does it have a GPS radio? Have you tried out any of the location based applications?
• What about some quick hits on some apps that you've found interesting ?
• What’s up with Israel banning iPads?

Mike also provided a few screen shots from the device:

• Here's a screen shot of a dictionary lookup created on the iPad.

• Here's a Penultimate example created by Mike on the iPad.

Note: After we recorded the podcast, the Israeli Government lifted the ban on the WiFi iPad.
