The iPad 2 Project Book, 9780321775702 (0321775708), Peachpit Press, 2011
We saw our first iPad in a theater in Hollywood, California, in the summer of 1968. It appeared in the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey, and the iPad (called a Newspad in the Arthur C. Clarke novel on which the movie is based) made its debut when astronaut Dave Bowman used it to view the news while having a horrific-looking meal of puréed space food. We didn’t want any of that food, but boy, did that Newspad look appetizing.

It took only 42 years (interesting number, 42) for the iPad to make it from Hollywood to the Apple Store.

Even more entertaining than the movie were the consternation and confusion among technology pundits when the iPad was announced in 2010. Very few of them could figure out what the device was for, and all too many of them were convinced that it wouldn’t be popular.

Now we’re a year into the iPad era. The iPad has turned out to be even more popular than even the most optimistic pundits expected, and the public has had no problem figuring out what the device is for. In fact, iPad owners have come up with ways to use it that no one expected. (While we were writing this book, for example, a new album recorded and mixed entirely on the iPad went on sale in the iTunes Store.)
