The Tablets are Coming!
Writen by: Hank WethingtonPosted on 03 January 2011
CES starts this week, and with the success of the iPad, I expect to see a flood of tablets hitting the market. I must admit, I’m actually excited about this. I really like the idea of a tablet. At first, I thought the iPad was stupid (still not a fan of the name), but the more I use one, the more I like it. I’ve been using one from work for the past 10 days and I love having it. I’ve used it for the basics; web, games and such, but the advantages to having books, web, fun all in such a small form factor, transportability, and battery life, are all amazing things. It’s also more durable than I expected.
So why am I excited about CES when I could just go out and get an iPad? Competition. With competition comes better pricing and features. With as good as the iPad is, it really needs a camera. I would also like it to be a little smaller. $500 is just too much, even for this Mac fan-boy. When the price is closer to $200 and the features are right, then I’ll rush right and and get one. In the mean time, I’ll just continue to borrow from work when I can.

Ya and didn’t know you would have the iPad out as long as you have.
Seriously? I told you when I was coming back to work. I hope you didn’t get in trouble. I added some fun games… Does that help?
all good, Mark was asking about it.
