Yeah, and this A4 System on a chip (SOC) NOT to be confused with a \"processor\" BTW, will be in the next version of the iPhones themselves. So while it\'s a tad early right now we CAN say that it runs on the same SOC chip as the iPhone. The difference between the iPad 3G and the iPhone? Mostly ONLY screen size. The difference between the iTouch and the iPad w/o 3G? Mostly ONLY screen size.
I can say \"I wish they would have...\" about a LOT of things for the iPad but you know the saying... Wish in one hand... It just ain\'t gonna happen! I don\'t think in the 2 or 3 years to come either - honestly.
It\'s also not going to replace or overtake current e-book tech as an LCD just cannot compete with elink displays. So basically its just a gigantic iPod/iPhone. At $500 I do wonder if it will replace digital picture frames though? I can see it as a bed-side tool as well. Alarm, cosy browsing with the wife (maybe with a digital copy of the Kama Sutra? ), check morning schedules, etc., etc..
PS: I wonder if Scott has a glass eye or just a lazy eye?
