The iPad
There’s so much I want to say about the iPad but I just haven’t been able to get my thoughts together yet. Mainly because I’ve been battling a nasty virus which has left me drained, but that’s a whole other story. I think a lot of the complaints from people are eerily reminiscent of when the iPhone launched and a lot of people were to preoccupied with moaning about what it doesn’t do that they forgot to take a good look at what it does do.
Here’s something I wrote when the iPhone was first introduced. Just replace iPhone with iPad and iPod with iPhone and you’ll see the pattern. I think the iPad is a truly revolutionary game changing device. I think it will take concepts first introduced with the iPhone and bring them to the world of general computing. There’s lots I want to say and once I’m feeling a little better I’l put my thoughts together properly. For now though, here are some things I reccomend you read, as they echo my onw sentiments on the iPad.
