Not too long ago, we were anxiously anticipating a new apple product. Well, its with great pleasure that I inform you that iPad has settled in just swimmingly here at Splasm Software. Since March, we’ve gotten to know the little guy, and can honestly say that we could not imagine our lives without iPad.

iPhone was able to adjust relatively quickly to the new addition. Due to the intense amount of quality time being spent with him, in creating a Checkbook App, iPhone did not even have time to be jealous.

From the light-weight design to the ease of reading news on iPad’s beautiful screen to the fun we have listening to podcasts together as we fall asleep, iPad has not disappointed.Though we hope that, someday, iPad will grow a camera. We’ll have to wait and see…

Preparations have been intense, we want everything to be perfect for our new addition.

Reassuring iPhone that we will still love him once the little one gets here has been a full time job. We’ve been giving him lots of extra attention, looking at old photos from when he first arrived at Splasm, even telling him stories about how we stayed up all night admiring his touch screen and making calls to everyone we knew. Still, he is nervous and more than a little jealous that we are so eagerly expecting iPad. It doesn’t help that iPod has already been through this and is throughly enjoying torturing little iPhone.

In the middle of painting the nursery, iPhone came in crying, “iPod told me that,” sob, “when iPad gets here you won’t develop for me anymore! iPod says that you’ll be so busy creating games for iPad that you won’t even care about me at all!”
Setting down my paint brush, I pulled iPhone close and explained that iPod was just being mean,
“We’ll still have time for you,” I started, then considered the best way to proceed, “iPad won’t even be able to do much at first, but we’ll work with him, give him lots of love, and one day he’ll be just as useful as you.”

iPhone appeared visibly calmer and agreed to be kind to iPad when he gets here… on the condition that we get him that Checkbook application he’s been asking about.
