SeeItGolf App for iPad ReviewSeeItGolf has taken its groundbreaking visualization training to the next level with its new interactive app for the iPhone and iPad.

You may recall that the original SeeItGolf training video titled “Aaron Baddeley: Putting” earned rave reviews on PutterZone.com.

Now, with the new $10 app, you not only get the full original video, but also the opportunity to literally cut your own film to the music of your choice. That’s right, you can mix and match different putts from the Baddeley video and play them to Bach, AC/DC or whatever else gets your game going.

            

The available video excerpts include putts of varying lengths and breaks, with multiple views of each putt, including from the rear of the putter, the front of the putter and top of the putter. Creating your own movie is extremely easy—you just drag and arrange the chosen excerpts into a window, click a button to add music and suddenly you have your own motion picture featuring some of the most beautiful footage of putting ever created.

Though it’s just five months old, Apple’s iPad is a certifiable hit, having already sold millions of units and spawning tens of thousands of apps tailored for its 10-inch screen. The tablet has prompted many of its owners to use it instead of their laptops for everything from email and social networking to games and Web surfing.


It’s also a very good e-reader, in my view.

Finding the Best Way to Read Books on an iPad
WSJ’s Personal Technology columnist Walt Mossberg takes a look the iPad’s three major e-reader apps – Apple’s iBooks app, Amazon’s Kindle app and Barnes & Noble’s Nook app. He tells you which is the slickest, the most comprehensive and the friendliest.

Unlike dedicated e-reader devices like Amazon’s Kindle, the iPad offers a wide selection of e-reading apps, and I have used several of them heavily to devour scores of books. In particular, I have spent the past few weeks testing the best known of these iPad e-reader apps, comparing their strengths and weaknesses.

My verdict is that none of the three apps I focused on—which mimic and often interact with dedicated e-readers like the Kindle device—towers over the others. Each has its good and bad points, and I personally switch among them.

The CEO of Best Buy just said the iPad is cannibalizing 50% of the company’s laptop sales, the Wall Street Journal reports.

When consumers walk into Best Buy now, they don’t look at or want laptops, instead they’re drawn to the iPad.

"People are willing to disproportionately spend for these devices because they are becoming so important to their lives," says CEO Brian Dun.

Bad news for Dell, HP, Acer, and Microsoft.

An iPad App That Syncs Up In Real-Time With The TV Show You're WatchingHere’s a neat idea that shows the iPad’s potential power as a complement in the living room: ABC just announced a new iPad app for its show "My Generation" that syncs up in real-time to the point in the episode you’re watching, providing "synchronized interactive content and social media functionality."

It does this using technology from Nielsen that listens to the audio from your TV — via the iPad’s built-in mic — to know what part of the episode you’re watching, and then synchronizes its app content. (This means you can also have "live" app content without spoilers when you’re watching the show on your DVR, the next day or whenever.)

OK, admit it.

The multi-touch screen on the iPad is amazing for most of the work that you do, but when you’re really trying to type a lot of words quickly, the virtual keyboard sucks.

We’ve seen a few similar keyboard cases demoed over the past few months, but this is the first we can remember from a well-known accessory manufacturer like Kensington. When it begins to ship next month, Kensington’s Bluetooth keyboard case for the iPad will cost $99.
