Sick and tired of being alone in bed at night turning crumbly pages of your ol’ paperbook? Don’t want to boil your limbs and legs with the undersurface of your laptop while surfing the internet?
Show your last holiday trip fotos easily to grandma? Easy, easy iPad…

…but why it really fills in a big leaking gap for me is: Have you ever studied a subject that demands you to carry a lot of books? For example the corpus juris as a law student? Imagine your bag? – Pencil, Paper, iPad. Since they offer a iPad version of iWork there is seriously no need for me to carry my laptop to university anymore. No need for papernotebooks or calenders and everything is synced of course. I reckon there will be so much intuitive software that it will actually the device I carry around on my usual (working) day, like Laptop for the professional and challenging tasks, iPad for the small office tasks (and diverting entertainment, hehe) at university or wherever, iPhone for the street and the informations you need as quickly as possible in the palm of your hands; all located in a synced environment backed up with a server-like, consumer-friendly Timecapsule as its heart and memory.

Useless: The keyboard dock. I do not want to type on that. It’s useless for Numbers, since this app seems to work only in horizontal mode (hence useless for all other horizontal mode apps – hopefully not too much) and I have the feeling the keyboard itself is too close to the screen. I’d rather use a bluetooth keyboard with the standard craddle instead. Or a luxury craddle that offers more usb links and the like, decent stereo sound, a tiltable “screen” etc..

And it would be awesome if you could connect it to your standard machine as a kind of input device like a graphic tablet + showing all photoshop tools on the iPad.

The best would be an app, that makes it a midi device for Logic or Garageband. Like a Korg Kaoss Pad. – See, it’s all pad.

Awesome….keep in mind that it is 2010 now. Cars gonna fly soon and people will say like “Did you came by car?” – “No, no. We came by jetpack since the weather was so good.” – “Nice. Have a beer and grab a steak in a pill from the grill!”

Well, there is still one little detail that’s kinda disappointing about the iPad announcement yesterday – what about a Macbook Pro update? I need a new laptop so badly. Please…with a thousands of cores, seriously.

iPad I like it.

By the way: Doesn’t the iBook app (wich is great I think) reminds you a bit of Delicious Library (wich might be even greater)?
