We’ve heard of and seen a working demo of SlingPlayer for iPad on the Internet a few weeks ago and now it looks like the place shifter media streaming app is now available to download from the iTunes App Store for $30. Unfortunately, iPhone users who had purchased the SlingPlayer for iPhone will have to shell out another $30 for the iPad version, or use the iPhone version scaled up to fit the iPad’s larger display. Sling Media is touting the iPad’s versions high-resolution streaming, so if you’re obsessed about image quality, the $30 investment in the iPad-specific version may be a good investment.

Apple Inc: Apple Inc was founded in 1976 by Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne as a computer company wich is often credited to have initiated personal computing. After a meteoric rise in the 80s, Apple had lost the personal computing battle against Microsoft and others in the 90s. But in the late 90s and early 2000s, the company came back to profitability by focusing on less products and started using industry-standard components. Apple's largest business is now in the smartphone space, with the iPhone representing more than half of the revenues and an even larger part of the profits.

iPad: the iPad is Apple's tablet computer.

It was followed by the iPad 2 in March 2011 and a new iPad (gen 3) in 2012.
