Explained : Why ipad mini has screen size of 7.85 inches?

Why ipad mini has screen size of 7.85 inches?

If you do the math, a 7.85-inch tablet with a resolution of 1024 x 768 works out to a PPI of 163. 163!


So what? So this: That’s the exact same resolution as the pre-Retina iPhone/iPod touch display!

Apple and its manufacturing partners — who’ve been making original spec iPhone and iPod touch screens for almost five years now — have all the machinery they need to make 163 PPI displays, and costs to do so are cheaper than ever.

ust like a 7.85-inch iPad mini aligns perfectly with existing manufactory hardware, its 1024 x 768 screen aligns just as well with existing iPad apps! Developers wouldn’t need to provide Apple with a third distinct set of layout parameters; the iPad mini would simply (and automatically) resize their iPad apps to fit its smaller screen. This is a painless, easy solution to a potentially back-breaking problem.

Windows 8 Calendar app (free download) : Everything you need to know

 Windows 8 Calendar app

At its heart, a great calendar should to do the following:

•Show your life clearly. You should have crystal clear visibility into what’s happening in your life – at home, at work, and at school.

•Make it easy to get around. Moving back and forth in time should be quick and efficient. Opening events and appointments should feel natural.

 •Make it easy to add new items. New things are always coming up in your life. A great calendar makes it easy to make new plans.

 •Keep you on time. Well laid plans aren’t very useful if you show up late!

 •Be ready to do more. As you get busier, scheduling gets more complicated. Calendar should gracefully handle your needs as they change.

Showing your life clearly

One of the most important functions of a calendar is its ability to answer the questions “What’s going on for me today?” and “What’s coming up next?” As we designed the Calendar app, we focused on providing that clarity and eliminating distractions. Given all the potential capabilities of a digital calendar, keeping this focus can actually be quite difficult. The temptation to add extra bells and whistles can be very real. At the same time, we realized that focus is one thing paper calendars have always been quite good at --- they simply present you with the calendar grid and the information you’ve written on it.

 With that insight and the clear principles of what it means to be a great Metro style app, we committed to clarity of presentation. The app focuses on the calendar and your content, above all else.

Photos app for Windows 8

We take a lot of photos that end up in a lot of different places. Some are on our PCs, others end up on a photo sharing service like Flickr or Facebook, and even more are on our phones—sometimes indefinitely. How and where we store and share photos has changed and will continue to change as we take more photos, buy more devices, and share to more places with more people. What we need is one place where we can see, relive, enjoy, share, and immerse ourselves in all of them, all in one place.
