Re: [Skunkworks] 12 reasons why not to but the Apple iPad?

Aki, I am beginning to feel you have something against Apple (AAPL). Same reasons you have given above apply to almost all tablets. Apple's philosophy has been about aesthetics and lifestyle. They have had to comprise between these and features. It is like that with most Apple products, but people still love them nevertheless. Things like Multitasking will be addressed by the upcoming OS 4. And future iPads will most like have the features you mention like the front facing camera. The iPhone 4G has it. While some points about prices are valid, it is a Niche product. The rest of the world are free to purchase their tables from Asus or whatever knock-off is coming from China.
