So it didn't change the world at the very moment Mr. Jobs held it up for all to see. And it probably won't for the mac-savvy crowd who can easily sustain themselves on iPhones, iPods, & iMacs, and coffee & bread. Because these machines do everything we ask and many things we didn't ever ask for, but really, really like.
But what about everyone else? There are millions of people with computers who don't do any computing. They read the news and whatever floats their boat, watch videos, facebook with their friends, email, share photos and things of that nature–but they don't create presentations, spreadsheets, graphic design...no, nothing of the sort. (And no, using the calculator on your computer doesn't count...nice try, though.) So why pay for that unused processing power? And why lug around anything bigger or heavier than you have to?
My biggest beef about the new iPad (besides the no flash issue, and I don't even want to talk about that right now) is that it doesn't really fit in your pocket. So I'll probably wait for the one with the same screen size, that folds up nicely into a wallet size. All right, as long as we're doing that, and it's got your credit card info in there, let's make it an iWallet.
