Oprah Endorses Apple iPad
By 
If there’s one thing that’s true about Oprah, it’s that lots of people follow her advice. Amazon received a big boost when Oprah endorsed the Kindle in 2008 and lucky for Apple, Oprah declared herself an iPad fan during a recent show with tech analyst Omar Wasow. During her show last week, she highlighted the iPad’s eReader capability and showed off the iBookstore where Oprah’s Book Club is featured. She really likes the touchscreen’s ability to allow books to “move” and believes the iPad will “change the way kids learn.”
Oprah mentioned the Kindle app and the fact that it allows users to read all their Kindle books on the iPad. She is also a fan of the backlit screen because is allows readers to read in the dark, as well as share photos and play games. According to The Wall Street Journal, her Kindle did come up during the conversation and although she said she “had a Kindle,” her publicist has since announced she currently uses both devices.
