Just wanted to softly, gently throw my oar in on this debate :) Don't you need a computer in the first place to sync your media from? I think comparing the iPad and a personal computer is a little like comparing a scooter and a lorry.

Can someone explain how Apple are avoiding getting in trouble like Microsoft did for IE-bundling? - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
