Log in, Walla!'S podcast !:
Yinon Ben-Shoshan, editor of Walla! Technology, analyst with Lior Naor, a retired digital reporter, discusses the hottest topics in the world of technology and media. "Connect" keeps you updated (and connected) to everything that happens in the most intriguing field that affects the lives of us all.
And this time:
At the end of the month, Apple will mark 12 years since the day Steve Jobs took the stage and introduced the world for the first time to the iPad, a product that invented a new category between PC and smartphone. The only answer at the time to the question was the netbooks, light and cheap 10-inch laptops, about which Jobs said: "There is nothing they are good at."
So who really needs Apple's tablet site? Even today the answer is not really clear. This is a hybrid creation, between a laptop and a smartphone, one that you will be very comfortable watching in videos or scrolling the feed of social networks. Will he celebrate 20 years?
You can also listen to the podcast on Spotify, Apple Podcast, Deezer and Google Podcast.
