I *think* you're wrong on this - I think there is a niche, maybe not the iPod niche, but deffo a niche for this kinda pad. It's not at all the pads that are available on windows, which are business orientated - this is consumer oriented.

I've migrated from desktop to laptop to desktop and in my life, at any rate, there is a fucking piece of peper surfing thing missing in my life that allows me to whizz it down on the coffee table when done.

I think by 2nd gen, I will definitely get me one to bridge that huge void between my laptop and desktop. And at that time I think the laptop will be obsolete and nver get replaced, since in reality the laptop is just an extension of the desktop.

If they keep that frikken iApp thing closed though, it may well be a a killer.

I'm erring though on the side of "fucking great product" though tbh to fill the void between laptop and desktop that no tablet has ever tried to do
