Thought you'd like the iPad Craig; at your age and the preponderance for vision-impairment, this thing looks like a visually "large" winner. It might even be great for storm-bound tent days, though I guess you'd be in your Muthaship. I still like the touch, feel, and even smell of books - can't see myself splurging on this for the book download app. Maybe something half the size one day. I'd certainly like something waterproof that did everything, including GPS, etc. Now that would be really sanitary and also useful for jotting down tips from locals instead of on your napkin at the restaurant prior to launching. Well, with the Wii out now and the jokes no longer heard, I don't think Apple will have a problem for too long. Heck, my teens are such iPod fans you could call this thing an iPee and they would still want one. Just as long as my girls don't want me to go out and pick up iPads for them. As for the iPad skit, I remember it well for three years ago. Now that was prophetic. Doug Craig said: With all the hype about the new iPad there is a MadTV skit out there about an iPad of their own.
