Apple will release a software update to address Wi-Fi problems with the iPad<\/p>\n
Apple has confirmed that it will issue a software patch to resolve ongoing issues with Wi-Fi connectivity on the iPad. Hundreds of iPad owners in the United States have complained about weak Wi-Fi signals and dropped connections, and reported that the iPad sometimes refuses to automatically rejoin authorised networks.<\/p>\n
Apple said that the problems affected “a very small number of iPad users”, but has pledged to issue a software update to deal with the problem, although a release date has not yet been given.<\/p>\n
In the meantime, Apple has updated a support article, suggesting that iPad users who are experiencing Wi-Fi issues update the firmware on their router, switch to WPA or WPA2 encryption, or try renewing their IP address.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Steve Jobs, Apple’s chief executive, is “fully operational” and “working at full tilt” just a year after a life-saving liver transplant, according to Business Week.<\/p>\n
\u201cExcept for the fact that he\u2019s lost a lot of weight, he\u2019s the Steve Jobs of old,\u201d Tim Bajarin, technology consultant and respected Apple-watcher, told the magazine. \u201cAt the visionary level, technology and design level, he seems to be working at the same level as he was before he was sick. If I was an investor, I\u2019d be thrilled.\u201d<\/p>\n
Jobs was absent from Apple for much of last year. In January 2009, he announced that he would be taking time off to recover from a “hormone imbalance” that was “robbing” of the proteins needed to stay healthy. But it emerged last March that he had undergone a liver transplant in Memphis.<\/p>\n
Jobs made his first public appearance since the operation last September, to unveil the new iPod line-up. He has since gone on to launch the iPad, which will be available in the UK on May 28, and has already sold more than a million units in the United States.<\/p>\n
