It looks like the ipad is a cool multimedia device but won’t replace a computer. This device is limited to running only apple approved apps. No multitasking and lack of Flash support makes it a watered down web browsing device. There is no published info on the CPU either. We tolerate the limited functionality of the iphone, ipod touch because of the convenient size. In a full size computer we expect full size performance and usability. Lets hope the price comes down to make it cheaper than a net book which can run any program that windows  supports. Thousands of websites use Flash and the lack of it is a big loss.
