Die hard tech-heads are already queuing up for the iPad launch tomorrow, and we're starting to see why. Here are a few of the apps we can't wait to play with on Apple's chic new tablets.
By now you’ve definitely heard buzz about Apple’s latest, greatest creation: the iPad. But if you’re a skeptic (much like I was) about its real appeal, allow us to highlight three of the apps that you’re going to want to download, ASAP (as soon as purchased):
Interview Magazine: Way ahead of the curve, Interview is the first major magazine to develop an app for the iPad. The April issue will be ready for download on the same day the iPad goes on sale, and will cost just $0.99, versus the usual $6.00 (and up) that a hardcopy will run you. Not only will you be able to peruse the mag before everyone else, but the digital edition will also include 330 screens of images and a video by Bruce Webber.
The Sartorialist: Also likely to have a more catalogue-y feel to it, the Sartorliast app, while not officially affiliated with photographer Scott Schuman, will offer bigger, better versions of the photos posted to his site (and easier browsing capability). Wondering about the details of “On the Street…18th Street’s” collar? Zoom in for maximum detail appreciation. 
Gilt Groupe: Skip all the scrolling – the Gilt Groupe app for the iPad is bringing back the good old-fashioned feel of a catalogue. With the incredible resolution of the tablet’s screen and an app that is designed to make the most out of the iPad’s functionalities, resisting Gilt’s designer sales is going to be harder than ever. Perk: the first 10,000 new members to download the app and join Gilt will receive a $10 (though we’d be hard pressed to find even 10 people we haven’t already convinced to sign up).
Will you be snapping up an iPad tomorrow?
