It’s also nice when that slate has beautiful looking things, rather than, well, Linux.
Edovia’s TouchPad for the iPad on first look seems like a scaled up version of the iPhone version. In fact, that’s pretty much what it is. The trackpad is much larger, the buttons are much larger, and the keyboard is much bigger. And you know what? It doesn’t feel wrong at all. Add to that the buttons are all so carefully polished with lepricon tears, I sometimes just launch the app just to look at it even though I have no reason to control it. All thanks to the works of graphics artist Jake Desaulniers (@desaulniers).
TouchPad costs $3.99, and is a universal app, so the same purchase is good for your iPhone as well. We’ll have a review up on SA sometime soon.
I love the way the buttons glow blue when pressed; not captured in a screenshot.
