Can't hold your laptop upside down lying on a couch, can't touch your laptop's screen to navigate a web interface.

Prepaid 3G is incredibly more convenient than contract-based service plans.

It isn't supposed to replace an iPod, that's just an extra feature since it has an audio port.

It won't revolutionize human life, no, but I believe it does do some things better than laptops or phones can do. It's somewhat of a luxury item, just like the Macbook Air.

I accept it's a luxury item, I just can't see it appealing to many people when they have the tools to perform all the tasks already. I mean I sure as hell won't be paying $500, for it.
I mean it is great. But I think it would be more awesome if it would run Mac OS X or a smaller version of it. It would be able to multitask, to run free software from the internet - you would have the possibility to use it as small, epic laptop. But at the moment it looks like an iPod to big to carry.

I mean, people like me (MacBook & iPod touch) have the possibilities already, theres no need to purchase this as a smaller version of both.

Apple seem to have a habit of giving their products names that can be easily twisted. First the "iTouch", now the "Ipad". As m0o said, it sounds like a female hygiene product, to be used every 28 days or so.

They are going to be using the same app store.

SOME unique apps will be made, don't get too excited.

i am pretty sure there will be allot of unique apps made. Why would using the same app store make any difference?

I agree with Joey... why not just make a tablet mac? A larger itouch is... well.. retardedly useless. It can't even multi-task or view flash in safari ffs.

Who would actually buy one of these and what for?

Also it sounds like an irish person saying ipod
