New iPad is great
Around noon, I went to local Apple store and tried out new iPad. It is great. The line for purchase is not long. I saw people were happy to setup their new iPad there. The box is smaller than one for iPad 1.

Mac mini and Apple iBooks Author
When Apple announced iBooks Author, I was very excited since it provide a lot of people to have book published.
Since this free iBooks Author is only run Mac, I did some research on what kind of Mac I would get. We only had iPod Touch, iPhone, and iPad; never had any Mac before. After one week research and two visits of local Apple store, I decided to get a Mac mini and ordered 8GB memory with it from Amazon.com. I enjoy this Mac mini very much since I got it. I have been working on my first ebook with the Mac mini and iBooks Author with all the pictures I took in last ten years. I carefully picked up over 300 pictures to create a ebook called "Pictures from Beijing" and turned into Apple ibookstore as free book.
Photography has been my main hobby many years. I study photography through books, magazines, clubs, going out with friends, and taking pictures. I am very glad now I can put all my collection to ebooks.
As I am working on this first ebook, I learn a lot on how to use iBooks Author. Now, I am working on my second ebook and wish to publish it soon.

iPad 3 is coming
It is expected to come next month.
Today, there is news saying Best Buy is selling iPad 2 at $50 discount now. I saw an article on the web talking about trade in iPad 2 now and prepare for iPad 3. We are still using and enjoying iPad 1 everyday. It is hard to image how to sell it today and wait iPad 3, without an iPad for 10 days. While trying to see how much iPad is still worth, I found out that gazelle.com will pay only $126 for iPad 1(16GB WiFi only in good condition). It is better to keep it or give friends/relatives as gift.
iPad 3 will be great. People will rush to store to get one next week. For me, I will go to local Apple Store to take a look when iPad 3 is there.

Apple education events
In this morning's Apple education events, Apple introduced iBook 2, iBook Author, and iTune U.
iBook Author is a free Mac app. There is no Windows version. Why is there no iBook Author running in iPad? People have to get a Mac to use it. Now, everyone can write a book and publish it to iBookstore. It is really amazing!
I just downloaded iBook 2 and iTune U. But they quit on me when I use them. Guess there are so many people got them and trying to have the first look. I will try them later.
