iPad or not

  Well is officially out, I had been waiting 27 Jan for quite sometimes already for the debut of the legendary iPad since the rumours started several months ago (Actually Years).
  It is quite impressive though, yet a bit disappointing in some aspect. Such as the missing of Multitasking, I really hope that they could change this with a software update with such a potential (1GHz A4 Chip) inside the iPad it should not be a problem. Then I would really think about this versus an Laptop.

  The GUI (Graphic User Interface) is pretty and elegant especially with the large screen estate (9.7" LED). Plus WIFI and A-GPS of course and 3G data connection for some model, storage raging from 16GB - 64GB cheapest model which is 499$USD ~ RM1900+. While its chip/processor is a A4 1GHz Apple custom built. Blessed with blazing fast speed.


  Well form my point of view, it is a remarkable good device with cool multi-touch style of using iWork ! I think I would really have some fun on creating my spreadsheet and document plus presentation with iPad. Well it really do seems to be cheaper than an iPhone but its purpose is kinda blur-ed (In between). Yes its good at playing video in its gorgeous screen plus some high def and innovative game that would soon spring up (I wish there were Star Craft 2 or something maybe C&C) and of course sitting at your sofa while surfing the web in its thin and light profile. eBook too Kindle be careful, expect comic to come along too with a cheap price. 

  But its purpose is well kinda... erm…  well hard to say... is not as versatile as a laptop yet portable as an iPhone what should I say its kinda like an expensive toy.
 
  Anyway I think I would buy it probably because of its price point over an iPhone.
  60 more days to go for its launch date !
