Well Apple seems to have done it again.  They announced what seems to be another amazing product.  And this time, in an almost un-Apple fashion, the price point of the product seems reasonable.  Maybe I’ve just become accustomed to their pricing, but I really expected the iPad to start at $700 subsidized by a mobile carrier when you sign a multi-year data contract.  I’m glad I was wrong.  Apple seems to have pulled out all the stops with this device.

 

One of the features that surprised me most was the availability of the iWork office suite.  I had been dreaming that it would be capable of running presentations and opening documents, but I never really expected it to be a reality.  Bravo Apple.  This seems like an amazing device.

 

I am anxious to see how the iPad fares in reviews once people have their hands on it.  I know I have a few questions still about how it will accomplish certain tasks, but I’m really excited about the possibilities.  I think Apple is going to give both netbooks and ereaders a real run for their money with the iPad.
