My general opinion of the iPad in general - I'm sure theyll be lovely in the flesh, but it still feels 'incomplete' somehow & I'm sure it'll take a year for things like UK book store to finalise (qv Sony Reader). By then v2 hardware will be out & I'll look again then. Gwynne -- My real email is net, not line.

Tricky. How long did it take for the iPod to get replaceable batteries? But if you really want one (and I can easily see why you would, as it's a lovely realisation of a great concept) then take a punt on v.1. Anyway, it's only money. -- Peter

With luck, Flash will be obsolete first. -- Richard -- Please remember to mention me / in tapes you leave behind.

Perhaps the UK book store for the Sony Reader took a year to finalise? I see a surprising number of Sony Readers on the tube in the morning -- perhaps one a week. (I'm fairly sure it's not the same person every time, though before 8am I'm fairly prosopagnosic.) I think I may have seen a Kindle once. b. -- <bas(a)bas.me.uk> <URL:http://bas.me.uk/> `Zombies are defined by behavior and can be "explained" by many handy shortcuts: the supernatural, radiation, a virus, space visitors, secret weapons, a Harvard education and so on.' -- Roger Ebert |
