I pad is a disruptive technology because it has created a dramatic change in
technology market . many existing media business are forced to change their
business model . if the ipad becomes hit ,the potential user and platform
company will be the winner . on the other hand their competitor will be the
loser because people sometimes does not switch to another company if they
get desired facilities.

Apples business model is based on pushing the value chain towards the device,
whilst processing transaction at marginal profitability for upstream content
providers . previously believed content was less important than the popularity of
its devices. Now apple understands that it needs high-quality content from all
types of media it offers on its devices to be truly successful.

CONCLUSION:

From this discussion I pad is a disruptive technology . Apple has rolled out its
highly anticipated I pad device which the company proudly proclaims as its most
advanced technology in a magical and revolutionary device at an unbelievable
price . it is a device that combines the best feature of a notebook or net book and
an I pod touch ,wrapped up in gorgeous ultrathin light as a feather package.









RECOMMENDATION:
I pad does not support flash drives to expand storage and external hard drives or
cloud storage cant be used to store apps . so storage capacity should be expanded.
it has limited multitasking if you really need true multitasking , the I pad cant
provide it. the price of ipad is higher than any other tablet. So the price should be
consistent with competitor. Sometimes it cant possible to read well in direct
sunlight in contrast to kindle e reader.
