Question Still Surround iPad Launch

Analyst are anticipating unit sales of 6 million in calendar 2010, considerably higher than the Street's consensus of 3-4 million. Clearly there is demand for something beyond the netbook.

With the rumored pre-sale of the iPad not happening last week, there remains a lot of mystery surrounding the device's launch time-frame and what exactly will the final feature set will be.


Here is an interesting article regarding some of the yet to be answered questions about this new device.

Flash to iPhone?

Flash as we all know it is not coming to the iPhone anytime soon but now the Adobe development community can use their skills to build applications that can be ported to the iPhone.

What can the iPad do?

"The iPad is nothing more than a big iTouch." "It does nothing that a netbook can't do".

These are some of the more common statements that I have heard since the iPad debuted. While it's true that out of the box, the iPad varies little from the iTouch, that view is short-sighted.

Look at the iPhone or iTouch, out of the box they both play songs, surf the web and check email. But start adding apps and the whole equation shifts to what can't these devices do.

The iPad is the same way. Out of the box it seems limited, but I feel it has greater business applications in that it's screen size opens it up to a host of applications that are ill-suited to it's smaller brethren. When you consider the apps that can be delivered via the iPad, the view of the iPad is transformed from neat toy to virtually anything you want it to be.
