Apple announced the new, third-generation iPad the same week that the print book was being printed.

Import Flip Video into iMovie for iOS
When I was reviewing iMovie 1.2 for iOS, I was surprised to discover that I could import video directly from my Flip MinoHD camcorder. During the tech edit, Macworld editor James Galbraith had a few questions (for him, he needed to plug his Flip into a powered hub for it to be recognized by the ...
