I wish I'd said that...

"It's like they took the iPhone, and made it larger." (Thanks, JD)

"And made it so you can't actually make any calls on it."

Funny, I've paid no attention to this launch — not even bothered to read an article about it, before your link here — though I'm a long-time Apple user. Paid no attention when iPod & iPhone were launched, either, actually. And ... I use both today. I don't see any likelihood of needing the new device, once again, but I am a bit more hesitant to make that a vocal position this time.

Over coffee today, an old friend & long-time serious Apple partisan sought to make the case for iPad as another leap forward — a repeat, sort of, of conversation we had at introduction of the iPhone — and I dutifully played contented skeptic. I wouldn't be lining up to order even if money were no object, that's the fact. I honestly don't want one more device with a screen. Whether I'll be doing fine without one 3 or 4 years from now, though, is another question — one I'm putting off.
