Chitika, an online ad network and data analytics firm, has just released a report regarding recent iPad usage in the United States. The company serves up around 4 billion ads a month and uses that network to track mobile traffic.
According to the report, Apple's new tablet now accounts for more than 10% of all iPad traffic the ad company tracks here in the United States. Not bad for a product that was released just under a month ago...

Experiencing Wi-Fi problems with your new iPad? Apparently you're not alone. According to a recent report from 9to5Mac, hundreds of new iPad owners have taken to Apple's online support forums complaining of the issue.
In fact, the site has gotten its hands on an internal Apple memo (above) that instructs retail employees to "capture" affected devices — meaning send them in to Apple for inspection — and replace them under warranty...
As noted by TechnoBuffalo, well-connected Apple proponent John Gruber (of DaringFireball) made some interesting comments today regarding the oft-rumored "iPad mini" on his weekly 5by5 podcast with Dan Benjamin.
Gruber claimed that he has been told by a number of Apple insiders that a 7.85-inch tablet exists inside Apple's labs, but he's unsure when or if it will see the light of day...
So this is pretty interesting: Gene Munster, Piper Jaffray's senior Apple analyst, published a report yesterday claiming that one in three U.S. high school students now own an iPhone.
The data comes from the firm's semi-annual survey of U.S. teens, in which they poll over 5,500 high school students to see what technology they're currently in to...
Dolphin, a popular third-party Android browser, finally got ported to the iPhone last August. It's seen more than ten million total downloads on both platforms since. Featuring custom gestures, a clever user interface design, advanced features and many customizable options, it's the favorite non-Apple browser on my iPhone.
Developer MoboTap Inc. updated the iPhone version of Dolphin today with half a dozen nice-to-haves, including the all-new voice control capability dubbed Sonar. Just shake your device or tap the mic icon and tell Dolphin what to search for. Voice input works with any site that has search or text fields.
This lets you not only search for eBay items, but update your Facebook status, post a tweet and more - all just by using your voice. Sonar also lets you speak commands to bookmark your favorite website and control other features of the app.
Two years ago today, the iPad went on sale in the United States for the first time. The launch came just two months after Steve Jobs unveiled the tablet on January 27, 2010, in front of a large crowd at the Yerba Buena Center in San Francisco.
The CEO told the audience that Apple felt that it had finally come up with a device that would be better at tasks like browsing the web, sending emails, and sharing photos than either a smartphone or a laptop. "And we call it, the iPad."
The ailing BlackBerry maker Research In Motion today released the BlackBerry Mobile Fusion enterprise server software, first announced last November.

This is the first time RIM comprehensively supported iOS mobile devices in a major corporate enterprise server software.
That Apple is toying with a bunch of varied gaming controller concepts is anything but unknown. Two years ago, an interesting Apple patent detailing an accessory for playing games with portable devices surfaced in the United States Patents & Trademark Office's database.
It was originally filed back in September of 2008, meaning the company had likely begun researching the invention ahead of the original iPhone debut five years ago. The patent outlines a few exciting gaming accessories for portable devices, such as a receptacle system of sorts that could let your iPod be inserted to play games.
Another highlight worth mentioning is a gaming controller featuring cameras, motion sensing, a dual-display configuration and physical buttons on the back coupling a multitouch surface on the front.
And now, AnandTech drops a little nugget with claims that yes, Apple is in fact working on a gaming controller for iPads and other iOS devices...
It took them a while but Facebook has finally updated their iPad application with Retina display graphics. The update also brings a few new features as well as minor bug fixes.
Considering how big Facebook is, I find it slightly disappointed they take so long to release such a simple update. Anyway, we have listed the full change log below for those of you interested...
The new iPad has been out for nearly three weeks now, and most of the folks who are going to weigh in on the tablet, have. The Retina display looks great, and LTE is lightning-fast. But otherwise the consensus seems to be that it's not much different than its predecessor.
This has spawned quite the debate throughout the internet on whether or not iPad 2 owners should consider upgrading to the newer slate. And the, once again, consensus seems to be that it isn't. Does this mean that Apple is losing its touch? Read on for my thoughts...
