Video: Pope Uses iPad
The Vatican just upgraded Pope’s iPod with an iPad! At the Apostolic Palace on Tuesday afternoon:
“With a simple tap and that tweet, Pope Benedict XVI launched the beginning of a new adventure for the Vatican’s media services. At the Apostolic Palace on Tuesday afternoon, Pope Benedict used a tablet to launch the new web portal featuring the latest news of the Vatican’s media services.”
ObamaPacman.com found the tweet sent by the Pope @news_va_en, and that new Vatican site is news.va (not Rome Reports, which did not reference either of these).
Here’s the Vatican’s version of the video:
It seems to be an iPad 2 with some kind of a case. So what’s currently on the Pope’s iPad home screen? Maps, Videos, Camera, Settings, Twitter, Safari, Mail, Photos, and iPod / music app.
