    Time Magazine cover it over the weekend too. When I saw it in Time, I was all over it reading every detail. I will wait and see if they can come up with ones with inbuilt webcam. Just like other apple small widgets, the price will sure come down by June or July, after the rush.

    I think I will wait till after the rush. But I can't wait to see one on display and play with it.

    You know this morning I just realized what apple is trying to do with the iPad...

    They are trying to separate the power users, who will need the Mac OS from the everyone else who could simply use the iPhone OS and all the available applications... Unless you need big applications like Final Cut or Draft or any other large applications, every other task you do can be completed with any number of already existing Apple Store applications.

    Name any regular computing task, ANY, there is possibly an app that will help you perform it. So my friend who only uses her computer to mostly send email, sync her ipod and surf the web, is perfect for the iPad. Even the periodic Word or Excel sheet she works with I'm sure is supported with an already existing app in the App Store. So now she would be able to get games, business and functional application all from the app store..

    I use garage band and Final Draft, so the iPad does not help me here. But every other computing task I do I could do on an iPad.. I don't actually "need" a full blown MacPro to accomplish sending email, surfing the web, playing music, charging my iphone, etc...

    I think this is where Apple is pushing the market... We'll see if they succeed in making everyone realize that they need less than more...
