14. Apple's iPad vs. Kindle, Eee PC, PSP Go-@ PCWorld Here is a philosophicaliPad question: What is it? Perhaps the best way to explain the iPad is to call it a jack-of-all-trades. It has all the functionality of the iPod Touch, including gaming, music, and video. But it's also a day planner, e-mail device, Web tablet, e-book reader, digital picture frame, and arguably a netbook replacement. So does this mean the iPadwill be replacing any of your digital gear anytime soon? To answer that question let's take a closer look at how it matches up to the competition. http://www.pcworld.com/article/188074/apples_ipad_vs_kindle_eee_pc_psp_go.html

15. On the iPad -Alex Payne The iPad is an attractive, thoughtfully designed, deeply cynical thing. It is a digital consumption machine. As Tim Bray and Peter Kirn have pointed out, it’s a device that does little to enable creativity. As just one component of several in a person’s digital life, perhaps that’s acceptable. It seems clear, though, that the ambitions for the iPad are far greater than being a full-color Kindle. http://al3x.net/

16. Is the iPad the future of portable gaming? Seemingly tailor-made for puzzle games, racing simulations and arcade amusements, Apple’s iPhone has quickly become a major player in the portable gaming market. But even with a staggering 30,000-plus downloadable diversions from “Dragon’s Lair” to “Flight Control” available, the device is about to face its stiffest competition yet. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/35132880/ns/technology_and_science-games/
