Turn Your iPad/iPhone Into A Pinball Machine

By Matthew Chung on 11/30/2010, filed in Home > Apple

There’s something strangely enticing about pinball and when you combine it with the iPad, it’s hard to imagine us getting any work done. The Pinball Magic accessory turns your iPad or iPhone into a mini-pinball machine. All you’ll need to do is slide your device in after you’ve downloaded the free pinball application. The flipper buttons actually work, and you can even tilt it, giving you an additional sense of realism. The iPhone version will set you back $30 while the iPad version (which isn’t available at the moment) will set you back $80. Not exactly cheap.

iPad: the iPad is Apple's tablet computer. While not "invented" by Apple (the newton was arguably a PDA), the iPad has re-ignited the tablet format as it appeared at the right time, with the right hardware and apps. the first iPad was launched on April 2010. It was followed by the iPad 2 in March 2011 and a new iPad (gen 3) in 2012.

iPhone: iPhone: The iPhone is Apple's line of smartphones. That was also the original name of the first iPhone, which was announced on January 9th 2007 by Steve Jobs during the Macworld Keynote. The iPhone was released to the public in June of the same year. The development of the iPhone started in 2004, was internally called "project purple" and was the fruit of a collaboration between Apple and AT&T. Since then, Apple has released new iPhone models every year, with the iPhone 3G in July 2008, the iPhone 3GS in June 2009, the iPhone 4 in June 2010, the iPhone 4S in October 2011 and the iPhone 5 in September 2012. The iPhone represented more than half of Apple's revenues in 2012.
