Rico will be saving his nickels...

...for the new iPad, out on 16 March. It will be available in ten countries on the first day, and 25 more a week later; the fastest iPad rollout so far.

iWork, which came out with the first iPad, is being updated: better charts and transitions and retina support. $9.99 apiece, free update, available today. iMovie and GarageBand are getting updates, too; $4.99 apiece, and a free update available today.

Apple is introducing iPhoto for iPad, and it is amazing. $4.99, available today.

Rico says it's cool stuff, and he can hardly wait to get his hands on one...
