The biggest problem I have w/ this article is the fact that the iPad has to be docked to a home-base machine
It also assumes you have quality wireless inside the home, something not all of us can manage. Thanks to all the noise insulation in my interior walls, my base station is basically line-of-sight when it comes to being usable. I get better reception of my neighbor's base station through two brick walls than I do of my own through two interior walls.
On the other hand, I am looking forward to running linux or bsd on an iPad. It'll be nice to see what you can do with the platform without Apple's permission.
