I would not get an iTab at present because it is not a work horse. I would hate typing on the virtual keyboard into a tiny window within a tiny screen.<br>I see this as more a table book for people to pick up, surf the internet and do some minor work. This is not a take-along product. <br>Although, an wireless mouse, keyboard, and peripherals could change this. I own a Mac Book Pro and iPhone.

My prediction is that the iPad won't fulfil that part of our lives which involves reading deeper content, like books, unless and until it makes a big leap in battery tech. A quantum leap.

A kindle can go everywhere because it needs so little electricity. A 10 hour charge on the iPad is completely useless in my life, especially when I need to keep my other devices charged.

I think it will be particularly effective in extending the seamless Apple cloud, commerce, lifestyle appliance model that shifts value from a single computer or application. Apple interoperates with the MS and Web world very well while providing a seamless experience whose boundaries grow year by year. Jobs learned a *lot* from 30 years of competion vs Gates. Looking forward to what he does vs Balmer and Google. Chuckle! Thanks!
