Apple iPad users get their own Apple Store app

The Apple iPad finally has its own app for the Apple Store. While many iPad users will be happy to have a tablet-specific version of the app, the more cynical will notice that it comes just in time for the holiday shopping season. The native iPad Apple Store app offers the same features found on the iPhone version of the app. That means viewing high-resolution shots of Apple products. And using your fingers to pinch and swipe, you can set up product comparisons that you want to see. And instead of looking at this through a 3.5 inch or 4 inch screen, you have the luxury of seeing this on a 7.9 inch or 9.7 inch panel.

Employing the extra real estate on the slate, the app allows you to really get a good look at the Apple devices on your shopping list. Considering Apple's expertise in separating you from your cash, you know that they didn't spare anything in developing the App Store app for the Apple iPad. Since Apple has just released this app, it won't work on anything other than iOS 7 or later.

Avoid the lines, the crowds and the expense of gasoline by shopping from home this year. The new Apple Store app for the iPad helps you take the experience of shopping at an Apple Store and puts it right on your tablet. The app will also allow you to get free engraving on your new iPad or iPod. You can place an order directly from the app and pick it up later at a nearby Apple Store, or just have it shipped to you. How easy is that?
