I'm also sorely tempted to get an iPad, even tho it's a One-point-Oh version and surely infested with the usual bugs of a One-point-Oh. But if it really pans out over time as a good multimedia device, I could see it as a neat alternative for doing digital modes; i.e. the sound card ones like PSK

Think your better off with a netbook for that kind of stuff, ipad doesn't have i/o at all, no audio input and a fairly limited processor, its more of a dumb tablet for web browsing and running little apps. And for the price, you could pick up 3 netbooks and put whatever flavor of *nix or windows

And then an app needs to be written that supports all that, I'll still stick to cheap available hardware over vapor ware myself. And wait until tablets come into their own (again, I had an original newton too bad they didn't take off with that). I do suppose someone has to be a trail blazer. Matt

Well the problems with the tablets of the past have typically been poor performance and just being too crippled to really do anything useful. I.e., you touch it to do something and it grinds and grinds and then maybe pops u a window etc I guess it remains to be seen if the iPad gets
