There is an ongoing debate as to whether media in the living room should be powered by the internet – using ever increasing speeds to feed rich HD content, or instead by the existing television infrastructure – already omnipresent in homes around the world.

The iPad is not available in Argentina yet, let alone in Mendoza. But we are slowly seeing more and more iPads in Mendoza’s cafes and restaurants. I bought my iPad the day Apple released it in the U.S, April 3th. I had pre-ordered it about a month prior and got it in the flagship Apple Store on Fifth Avenue in New York City. I’ve been using my iPad for a couple of months now and I must say that this is simply the greatest piece of technology ever designed for consumers.
