TidBITS#1023/12-Apr-2010
========================
  Issue link: <http://db.tidbits.com/issue/1023>

  The iPad continues to feature heavily this week, as Adam looks at
  Apple's early sales numbers for iPads, books, and apps, Glenn
  Fleishman covers the early Wi-Fi problems some iPad users are
  experiencing, and Jeff Carlson shares a slew of iPad tips. But the
  big news is iPhone OS 4, and we have a detailed look at what Apple
  has said about it, as well as some thoughts about the changes to the
  iPhone Developer Program License Agreement that ban the use of a
  Flash-to-iPhone compiler. Elsewhere, Matt Neuburg points a spotlight
  at Google Groups problems, Adam can't resist sharing a tremendously
  clever video that shows classic video game characters bitmapping
  Manhattan, and we give away three copies of the $149 FotoMagico Pro
  photo presentation software. Notable software releases this week
  include KeyCue 5.0, The Missing Sync for Android 1.3, Photoshop
  Lightroom 2.7, and PDF Enhancer 3.5.
