Apple updates Gallery for iPhone 4, iPad version still AWOL

Excuse me? My IPAD disappoints me in so many ways. I buy 64GB of storage and you tell me to use my web browser? I'm still waiting safari, a world class failure of an app to load the first picture.

So where is the iPhoto and Gallery for the IPAD? Sure it would theoretically work over the next but we are not always net available. iPhoto for the ipad is the most disappointing photo program I've used since windows 3.1. Cannot delete, crop, nothing, without using iTunes. And no recursive folders for pictures. On and On.

Then there is the adobe issue for safari.

Tripe! (my first apple product since the ][e 30 years ago and such a disappointment.

For iPad... use "Full Force". Works like a charm and displays the pics in full glory!

"Apple says the app now higher resolution images on an iPhone 4"
Ahh, this, good, yes!

If it is a desktop class browser, then why when I try to get to me.com like I do on my desktop does it force me to a page telling me to install iPhone apps? Apple needs to either give us iPad apps or let us use me.com. It's almost 3 months from launch! Sure there is a workaround with gallery, but what about iDisk? Then again iDisk is so buggy and slow that I'd rather use Dropbox. But it seems very odd that Apple is so slow on this sort of thing since a quality me.com and the Ipad seem
Iike such a perfect match.

This could be another example of my least favorite apple trait - withholding obvious functionality strictly for the purpose of selling you the next generation device.

Of course the pictures DO look good on the updated Gallery app, even if the interface is blocky.

There's your app. The iPad has a desktop class browser, there's absolutely no need for a separate application to view photos. Hell, the gallery renders great on the phone, too, there's no need for a Gallery application on the phone, either. Add the icon to your home screen if you need to.

This is really where the iPad would shine. I have no idea why they would not update it to take advantage of the larger iPad screen. Very disappointed, though I do like the native iPad photo app. It would be nice to get access to my Gallery.

The 'Gallery' app runs ok on the iPad. The app itself pixel zooms but the images themselves look great - no pixelation. But they don't fill the screen.

My guess is that Apple wants iPad owners using Safari as opposed to mobile apps. That's where there isn't a Fangando for the iPad and other "web apps" as you can have the full web experience via Safari.

Frankly, I would prefer a native iPad app for Gallery and also iDisk and all Apple apps. I don't know why where isn't an Apple "weather" or "stocks" and such for the iPad.

Maybe they are saving all this for IOS4 for the iPad.
