Well the event is over and the iPad has been announced. What do you think of it? Will you get one?
I'm certainly not. I already have an iPod Touch (AKA the iPad nano).
I don't need one so I simply won't buy it.
I don't see any point where it would be useful, it's too big to fit in a pocket and for business you would bring a laptop

Exactly what I was thinking. Plus it would be really annoying having to hold it up while you use it.

Too expensive for me.
But it looks nice, though.

The interface. Most other tablets just run windows.

Yeah, and my post disappeared. :saddowns:
I thought it was a thing that plugged into the USB slot on the iPod touch and allowed you to type easily at first, the touch screen sucks for typing.

They are not marketing towards business at all, they are marketing to the casual user. I think for what it is, it is fantastic looking, great price as well. I don't think I'll buy one since I've got a nice laptop, but I can really see this taking out the kindle.
I thought iPad was a new home solution that is uncomfortable and illogical but it's shiny and expensive, and you need to call Apple when your lightbulb goes out.
Not being able to background apps and the lack of flash player make this less useful than most netbooks, also that every piece of software has to be approved by apple is a bit of a bitch. I suppose if it was jailbroken it might be of some use.
