I do know that the iPad is more a consumption device than anything else, but beyond that I have my reservations. I knew what the IPhone was when it came out, it didn’t disappoint. I also watched the Apple TV come out and shortly thereafter fall onto the backburner, where it remains today. The iPad could very well do the same even with its beneficial perks, but I am more content to wait for subsequent versions before I go out to buy it.
