I agree with your points.
I’m not an Apple guy (at all).
But I’m dammed impressed with this Ipad.
(Yeah, the Flash things sucks, but whatever, it’s what it is.)

Subject: Re: [funsec] Apple has a new toy
My point in saying that was that Windows 7, with touch controls is
not a touch OS. If you've tried to use Windows 7 with your finger,
it's essentially a mouse pointer under your finger. It's inelegant,
it's imprecise, and hard to use. Apple took the time to figure out
how people would use an OS that is touch, and they invented the
iPhone and the iPod touch and continually refine it.
Make no bones about it, I'm an Apple guy, and apologist. I've used
Windows Vista and Windows 7 with touch enabled on a touch device,
and it's not even close to the experience that you get on an iPhone
or any of the future Apple devices that will be touch enabled (not
just the iPad, but the Macbooks).
A touch OS is different from a regular OS. A regular OS you
navigate with a keyboard and mouse, a touch OS you navigate with
your finger, (or several fingers). You can do things in a touch OS
that you can't do in a regular OS and Microsoft has not figured that
out. yet. Even if you use natural devices like ink (a pen based
device to navigate your OS), it's still a "mouse pointer".
Not saying they won't. But they will. We are on the edge of OS
development. We are going away from the "folder" "file icon" type
of OS and computers that you navigate with your keyboard and mouse
into a whole new field of OSes and devices.

The gOOglePAD will have flash support, but it most likely will be a

The Nokia minilaptop, which I just finally saw/held a real version
of, is at about the
same price point as the iPad, runs Win7 and has a 3G connection but
has real kb.
They are in the same weight range and I would argue are competing
for the same
usage/market.
