I didn't even know MS was working on a pad like device...I know HP has the
slate which is a finished product and due soon. There are a lot of devices
coming out that are pad like devices, some more expensive than others. I

Actually two. One based on WINCE 6.5 and one on Zune. The two teams
are reportedly spending a good bit of their resources on backstabbing
one another.
There are some out there but I do not know of any.

It exists, but not in reality yet.
The Ipads in the commercials are prototype editions, not consumer versions.
They have to be prototype as the commercials had to be in the bag a month ago.
Let us see the consumer product and then we can comment.

Windows 7 for Mobile for phones is not a released product yet.
Until it is released and until someone can actually put it through it

No, the iPad exists. You can drive nails with it. It is not yet
available for retail sale, but that is not the same as being fictitious.
Until it hits retail shelves it does not exist.
We have only seen Jobs handle it and some after time playing. Same
with Windows 7 phone.
On April 3 we will see the whole story when it hits the shelves.

Hardware is different than software.
until a piece of hardware hits the retail shelves it is not real, as
it can be tweaked played with etc. Software is similar but usually
they soak the ground with betas etc.
