I wasn't going to buy an iPad, it was a just big iPhone, it seemed like an evolution of the iPod touch, nothing too exciting there... Then I held one.
The iPad disappears, you no longer interact with a computer you interact with an app. The iPad becomes the app in a way that no mouse based system could and that the iPhone never quite managed, it is the most immersive user experience that exists today.
I have read a lot of comments about the iPad that call it a crippled netbook, the problem with this is that I owned a netbook and it felt like a crippled laptop, it failed because it tried to be a laptop, the iPad doesn't try to be a laptop, it exists as a bridge between the smartphone and the desktop, a revolutionary product designed to fill a niche we didn't know existed.
Vive la revolution
