Am i the only one here who likes the iPad.. Its not a cellphone so stop comparing it with the n900.. consider it an ebook reader, the kindle 10" version costs 489 usd this costs 500 usd, but gives multi touch + a 10" 'colour' screen + GPU + allows it to be more just an ebook reader .. i think it will have a new iteration in about a year to include camera, and a firmware upgrade to allow multi tasking.. just two things, that will make the ipad one of the best thing to hit the market.. and i saw a point online that no social games like farmville, well they already have a contract with zynga to release social games on the ipad.. and the ipad allows you to run iphone apps and games too, so again the massive application base is the winner here..
edit: what a stupid comparison btw, programming?? It says that n900 used maemo so its hacker friendly? I think programmers always prefer better support, and the iphone has the best support for programmers among mobile devices.. swapable batteries?? call people?
