iPads

So now that the iPads have been out for a while.... what do you people think of them?

I've actually seen a few on the subway, but not as many as you would think.

I also see a lot less people using them at tech conferences now that they have been out for a while. I swear every conference I was at for the first 2 weeks after the launch there was always someone in the audience trying to peck away on the keyboard, I kept feeling like I wanted to say to them...would you like a keyboard with that? It's called a "laptop" you dufus.

Don’t get me wrong I expect there will be a lot of great apps launched for the app, and if magazine/publishing people got their acts together you could see a change in publishing forever but you need another company apart from Apple to drive it, their desire to "be all and own all" just kills peoples interest in being involved eg. their iAds project is turning into a farce.

So what do you think?


Cheers,
