Apple has just posted details on its iPad battery replacement service, which is really not a battery replacement service at all. Check out the company’s opening line:
“If your iPad requires service due to the battery’s diminished ability to hold an electrical charge, Apple will replace your iPad for a service fee.”
Now, let’s compare that to the verbiage found in the iPhone’s battery replacement program details:
“If your iPhone requires service only because the battery’s ability to hold an electrical charge has diminished, Apple will service your iPhone for a service fee.”

By now you’ve probably read more on Apple’s iPad then you ever dreamed possible. In the last few days we’ve covered a lot of angles on the tablet and compiled a lot of data.
Still, we felt that we hadn’t given you clear hands-on impressions and collected the myriad details about the device in one, easy-to-reach place.
So we’ve decided to bundle all of that info into a single feature, joining our first-hand encounters with the iPad together with all of the data and details you should be aware of — including specs, plans, release schedules, pics, and video. So read on for everything we know (so far) about Cupertino’s first tablet!

Remember that history of Apple tablet rumors we concocted for you just the other day? Well, we’re here to take score now, folks. As you can see from the handy (and magical) chart below, Taiwan Economic News came pretty close to nailing the iPad’s specs back September: built-in HSDPA, custom P.A.
Semi system on a chip (with the fancy new name Apple A4), 9.6-inch size, February unveiling, and hey — they were pretty close on that $799 – $999 pricing too. And while iLounge was wrong about some things, they certainly hit this one out of the park: “It’s a big iPhone, but it’s not a big iPhone.” We’re going to let you dig into the chart here for yourselves to see who got what right — and who was terribly, terribly wrong.
Here are just a few of the no-shows today, however — no camera, no multitasking, no phone, no Verizon, no iPhone OS 4.0, and no Flash anywhere to be seen. There were also no MacBook Pro spec bumps in sight, and no iLife to be found. Well, let’s just try to be happy with what we did get, okay? The chart is after the break.
