All the things you guys wish the iPad had would be on the next Android tablet.I truly loved the video though. As Steve Jobss said it himself the core of Apple is about believing that people with passion can change the world.Remember that the iPad has iPhone software 3.2. I do believe that some form of Multitasking will come with iOs 4.0Rumour sais that lack of camera is due to AT&T but they offered better pricing models instead. Besides, in the many years I have a computer I realized that people just don't like being seen in video chat. I don't know anyone who uses video chatting in any significant way.As far as flash goes, we all know the story here. Its not very stable, secure, indexable or battery friendly technology. Most importantly it is not open standard. HTML5 and other technology will take over eventually but that will not happen if someone big does not take a stand.As far as the name goes...the tampon issues is only limited to the US and by the time the iPad becomes a popular culture thing the new meaning will overide the old one. The more I think about the more the iPad name makes sense to me. If you really think about it all the things the iPad does not have are not going to be used by the vast majority of people and all the things it does have are a significant improvement over what we have now. People do not buy netbooks because of flash or multitasking, they do it because they are small, cheap and have a good battery life. The iPad takes on those qualities pretty well.To naysayers, don't forget what happened to the iPhone. People did buy it. But it will take time before it becomes more nerd friendly because frankly you guys are not the target audience any more. Apple was all about building product for geeks. Its not any more.</blockquote>
