Regarding the iPad

If you don't know yet, there's a Camera Connection kit (see the bottom of the page) that will let you plug in a SD card or a camera (via USB). I predict some frustration as people figure out that the thus-provided accessory USB port can't be software-hacked into serving other purposes.
Also, the iPad appears to be a very interesting device, but the most immediately and completely overshadowed device would be the $1000 Wacom Cintiq 12".
Now go read Gruber.
