Guys and gals, I just want to survey some of you who respond to me
by replying to me. Tell me, what do you think about the iPad? I am
curious about your opinions, because i really want to get some
rumors that run about my head out of the way.
Personally, the iPad is great in all, but I would much rather have
Mac OS X Snow leopard on it. I would also consider having built-in
bluetooth so i can connect to wireless printers, and also i would
suggest firewire ports, USB ports, a mini-VGA port, a DVI port, and
a smart card reader hidden behind a removable cover.
Rev 0 issues aside, it's a nice device for those that need something
a bit bigger than an iPhone and who don't mind the app store lock-in.
It is not a laptop.
It is not a netbook.
It does not come close to having the features of either.
I'm sure there are a few million people out there that will love and
worship it appropriately (while I enjoy the stock going up). To
them, I wish a life-time supply of wipes (for the finger prints) and
cloudy days (for the glare/reflections).
