So device that in their opinion is good for web browsing and is middle of netbooks and smartphones....... and you can't use flash. Tablet not having flash don't compute with me at all.

The iPad hardware itself doesn't float my boat - it's too big - but the seamless integration of services (which are already available, at launch) and the apparent slickness of the platform can't be denied. All those content publishers on board - nice.
The product launches, and the products themselves, only serve to highlight the gulf in quality that exists between Nokia and Apple. I'm not sure how much longer I can stand to remain a Beta tester for Maemo (it's been 5 years now) when Apple are able to churn out great - although sadly restricted - products with apparent ease.
And they haven't gotten on to the next iPhone update yet...

UPDATE - The Big Steve has just announced there'll be a 3G model. So it WILL be subsidized.

The no contract 3G is nice, but I still think that platform is still a minefield of doesn't...
Nice device, but I'd still rather have a tabletish n900...

Oh boy, I can already see those people at the gym. Fully dressed with Nike gear and with the iPad attached to their arm. :P
