Someone asked me what I’d use it for I said – it’s years ahead of anything else. I see them on coffee tables, in meetings and for travel. Multitouch on that size screen just makes it so simple and intuitive to use and the apps look great. Also I see it as quite a socialable device, pass it round people, can’t really do that with a laptop. Personally I’ll buy one just because I wanted an ebook reader, but I wasn’t a fan of the E-Ink taking 2 secs to change page and flashing black, and the new Sonys have fuzzy displays because of the touch screen layer. I also think the web browser and email will be great to use in the morning instead of using my phone.

Overall, can’t wait to get one, and to start building apps for it. Two-player board-type games I believe will be big, can’t wait to play air hockey on it.
