Apple is allowing competing bookstores to put their apps on the iPad. They are allowing enterprises to develop their own apps and download them and update them directly to employees' iPads over wi-fi and 3G. They are introducing multitasking this fall. And if you really need an old-fashioned, obsolete USB port because your IT team is still stuck in the 20th century, you can have one. Rich is generally 100% wrong about everything.
