The iPad App Store has its shutters firmly pulled down until it launches in the US on Saturday (April 3) but a new video purports to show the iPad App Store in action. Read on to take a gander at the iPad App Store video and ponder whether it really shows where you’ll be paying for your iPad apps.


The iPad App Store video posted by Federico Viticci, editor of Mac Stories, apparently shows him browsing the iPad App Store which has a familiar Coverflow gallery of apps at the top with a panel for new and noteworthy apps underneath.

Familiar iPhone apps show up in their iPad app guise in the iPad App Store video with Flight Control HD present in both new and noteworthy and with its own button at the bottom of the window.

Brushes, the iPhone drawing app, gets a starring role with the video jumping through into its page on the iPad App Store. It shows a price of $9.99 and suggests that the Brushes iPad app was approved by Apple on this past Saturday (March 27).

While we know that Apple is pre-approving iPad apps in time for the iPad launch, it’s not clear how the Viticci came to gain access to the iPad App Store or even if he really did. Do you think the iPad App Store video is a clever mock-up or a sneak peak at the real thing?
