Give it another year or two and these will be the same thickness of a piece of paper.

Re: The Apple Tablet "The iPad"
I do love Apple, and agree with Jobs that technology needs a certain ingenuity to be truly accessible, but I think he may be forcing a square peg into a round hole, and selling his other products short in the process, with in-depth editing software for movies and music on the iPad. Wouldn't an enthusiast in those areas benefit more from buying a Macbook or an iMac?

Never said I didn't like it. I don't understand it. You could share your opinions to enlighten my ignorance. Or just cross your arms.
If you don't like it, don't worry about it.

On the positive side I like the new software. Garageband for $5 sounds pretty good.

Yes, but someone that is already an enthusiast would already know this. Perhaps this will be enough to segue people from beginner editors to more advanced enthusiasts that need the power from an iMac or Macbook.

Re: The Apple Tablet "The iPad"
Makes sense to me. Especially with the low price point. Could get a lot of PC people who have been on the fence about mac products to buy @ 499 and then introduced to the 'Mac Experience' ending up in Macbook and iMac purchases. I'd bet the iPhone is also accomplishing this to some extent.

Re: The Apple Tablet "The iPad"
It's not really something to overanalyze. I look at the iPad as something that could fill the gap between a smartphone and a computer (notebook or desktop). Not everyone NEEDS this as an option, but I don't care to do things on my phone (books, comics, movies, etc...) as I prefer the larger screen and don't want to lug around my Macbook Pro.

Order it online!!! I stood in line for 2 1/2 hours for mine last year, and was scared of being mugged/raped when I was walking back to the car with mine. Of course, Apple was awesome enough to provide free coffee and breakfast for everyone in line.

I don't see any benefits to buying it in store unless you need a One to One session. Order it online, avoid the hassle.
