@Fanscale

But there will not be any Microsucks supporters in that line.

B Gates owns 0% of Apple but why do thay have Netflix movie streaming on the iPad which has sold how many? But not on the iPhone which has sold 50 million+. Thanx a lot Netflix!

iPad looks like a good solution for people that don't understand regular computers. It costs a little more than big digital picture frames used to cost. Also works for iPod Touch owners that always wanted a bigger screen.

Interesting device, I will prob wait for next years model unless it gets some killer apps that I must have. I have always enjoyed my iPhone but hate the AT&T tax. I like the idea of digital books but thought the Kindle hardware was to limited.

Does the iPad have the ablity to read the whole book to you like the Kindle does?

One drawback of the iPad which is not a limitation of the device is that the iBooks App is only on the iPad. WTF? Apple thinks only iPad owners like to read? The Kindle gets this right. I don't own the Kindle hardware but still buy Kindle books since I have the App on the iPhone, Mac OS X & Windows.

The iBooks App could be ported to iPhone, iPod Touch and even all Mac's easy. Apple should not limit it only to the iPad.

The mixed reactions in this thread are understandable when you stop to realized Apple is trying to reinvent the computer industry in it's own iPod/iPhone image. Multitouch screens are cool but not always ideal in all situations. For example I found Giana Sisters hard to control on the iPhone compared to the version on the Nintendo DS or even the Amiga.
