Background Information Is iPad a totally new concept? No Touch screen phones, Tablet PC, Notebooks that work with
stylus and Pocket PC to name a few Then why these devices didn’t get as much of a media and
public attention? What is so special about iPad? The commitment problem: no manufacturer really made an
effort to design the perfect device. The technological problem, faulty hardware, inefficient touch
screen interaction.

4 No USB No USB ports on the iPad mean no connecting cameras
5 Memory We expected more than 64 GB memory on the iPad
6 Face book games Can not play games having no Flash
7 Swap batteries Fixed battery that cannot be swapped
8 Type on your lap Type on only an awkwardly laid virtual keyboard
9 Upgrade No going back once you've picked 16, 32 or 64GB hard disk

Discussion
Is iPad more of a luxury than a necessity? If future products with camera and phone will out do iPad? Will Microsoft and Others will provide compatibility with
iPad? Or iPad will have to accommodate Flash and Windows to
maintain market? Are iPad buyers think iPad is worth their money?

Personal Opinion
Yes iPad looks more like an entertainment device. But! May be in future it will develop more serious purposes. There are already millions of users, competitors has to make
their place. It is user friendly but it’s physical handling is not. Google thumbs up for iPad others may follow.
