^^ jobs seemed to run with the idea that consumers don't want a laptop in tablet form, as those have failed in the past. I'm incredibly interested to see what happens to the tablet market once devices such as the one above are released.

I had an interesting conversation with my parents tonight. I brought up the ipad just as a conversation starter and before I knew it we had been talking about it for a whole hour. It's funny, the fact that it can't do a whole lot was what interested them most. They have a pc but don't like everything that comes with it. When I told them they could have something that is out of the way, starts up immediately, does email, web and can double as my moms recipe book and my dads novels they were instantly hooked. It was strange to see people so afraid of technology get so into it.
