Re: Apples new Ipad.

Its an iPhone for Yao Ming!

The iPad is a replacement for the iTampon.

Seems like a cool device but...

Its too big for my pocket, too small for my laptop bag, doesn't do everything a laptop can do. Kicks ass over a netbook but who buys netbooks? I don't think it would be efficient enough for business, I need a real keyboard and hooking up a keyboard makes it really no different than a laptop. I guess it would be nice to watch videos on trips or to have around the house but today's laptops are getting lighter and smaller as it is. It would make a nice photo album, a $600 photo album. It is easy to see that it will take over the ebook reader market, amazon kindle is dead next to the iPad. Apple is launching the iBooks equivalent to iTunes.

Has anyone used an ebook reader? I imagine you would get eye strain after a while, maybe the iPad is easier on the eyes for ebooks?
