It’s a gap-filler. A few niches have been created where the current offering of gadgets is inadequate for whatever reason, and the iPad can cater to many of them.
The iTab isn’t a replacement for anything Apple is selling right now. I’m not buying one, and I’d be surprised if many of my friends do. I simply don’t buy Steve’s claim that the iPad does things the iPhone and Macbook do – but better.

Insisting on being bored is immature and destructive. Like a marathon runner bah-humbugging his way through the alleys of Paris.
You do not have to be the best at everything. You are not the best at everything. You do not have to be the best at everything. You are not the best at everything. Repeat until you believe it.
You can be anyone you want to be. Being someone does not guarantee survival. Survival does not guarantee prosperity. Prosperity does not guarantee happiness.
You don’t have to be older to be wiser. But time brings with it gifts of opportunity… Opportunities for embarrassments, mistakes, successes. And chances to be forced into making painful decisions. So although age doesn’t guarantee wisdom, it does guarantee more opportunities to have gained it.

The owner, Philip, hates that I do web design. Every time I come in, he’s like “What’s your business?” and I’m like “Philip! It’s Internet!” and he’s like “Ahhh, I don’t understand that stuff. It’s God’s curse to us. Just you wait, we’ll all be robots in 10 years!” and then I tell him off and he waves me off.
