The next meeting of the Hershey Apple Core will be held on April 13, 2011 starting at 6:30 PM at the Hershey Public Library in Hershey PA.

Last month we spent some time talking about video compression, video sharing, and why you should care. This month we’ll show you even better reasons to care, and use what you learned: Apple’s Airplay technology, some new options for making iTunes the center of your video universe and why they trump the competition.

We’ll also show off the brand new iPad 2 and what it can do, share some information on Mac and iOS utilities that will help you get things done better, faster and cheaper, and lots more.

Yes, you will be able to get your burning questions answered in our always thrilling Question-and-Answer session, and join in the fun at the Meeting-After-The-Meeting Dinner at Fuddruckers.

Forget Spring…come join your friends at HAC for an evening of information and fun.
