You have zero idea of that the iPad can do. The effectiveness of its
touch screen, the quality of its display, the battery life and the
oodles of free and paid for HIGH QUALITY iPhone apps it can run.

Why are you guys so openly ignorant?

Are you under the impression that the iPad will only do one application

What the hell are you talking about? There IS USB.

As for the multitasking : you're another mug playing silly semantic
games. Surely you can not be so ignorant?
