I’ve spent quite a few hours this weekend exploring the iPad. It’s hard to define the feeling, except I think that it’ll have a significant impact on how we consume media in the near future. I also believe that this will be one of the fastest new products to sell 1 million units.
Over the weekend I realized that NBC was one of 2 broadcast networks that did not have an iPad app. The other one being FOX. Given that a majority of what I watch is on NBC, I decided to create a simple mockup of a video-player app for NBC shows.
