iPad, The Next Big Thing?

by Brant on February 8, 2010

If you know me, you know I am an Apple Fan Boy. I have been waiting for this device ever since I saw a PC tablet. While I watched the announcement I found myself wondering if Apple had Jumped the shark.

I was disappointed because as a power user I wanted it to do Final Cut Pro, Adobe CS and other power apps. But as I read more about the iPad I saw what Apple is aiming for. Apple is looking to change the way we use computers and consume information. Most of my daily computer use could be handled my the iPad, and so many times I have tasks too big for the iPhone and too small to drag out the laptop. Also I get a little nervous hauling around my 17in MacBook Pro everywhere. Drop it or loose it and there is $3K gone.

Education is the biggest market I see, imagine no more books! For power users like myself hopefully the iPad will grow in functionality or there will be an app for that.
