2010: the year of the iPad / iSlate / Apple tablet (Apple haters move on please...)

[Goldstone Rapper]

Playing iPhones games such as Real Football on it will be amazing.

16-64gb flash storage

Irrespective of how light it is, the ergonomics will be interesting. Unlike a laptop where you can rest it on your lap or a table and view the screen at a decent viewing angle, surely with this you need to hold it all the time? You'll need strong wrists (guess that's why it was designed for current Apple users)

no surprises there, frankly im a little dissapointed, seems rather underpowered and dont like the fact it runs on an iphone OS unless im missing something obvious, would much rather have a windows 7 tablet as it stands right now, i want a small pc, not a very big ipod

 

[Goldstone Rapper]

Please, please.. I hope EA bring out Fifa Football for the iPad....

 

[Frutos]

So is it just a giant iPod with better battery life then?

I'll stick with my Macbook for now

[severnside gull]

[Goldstone Rapper]

They have software called iBooks? That's crazy!

iBook RIP 1999-2005.

 

[clippedgull]

I'm going to ask the same question, what does this give you that another portable device cannot, i.e mini laptop?

i'm guessing £399 for 16gb version
