“iPads aren’t for work”
I teach programming. Got mine so I could grade, test, and communicate with students anywhere anytime. It has paid for itself.
“nobody is going to be doing 100 WPM on those things”
Duh. And nobody is going to haul around a full-sized keyboard, dual monitors, multiple terabytes, and multiple media readers everywhere they go (clamshell notebooks being a rank compromise thereof).
“They’re supplemental, not replacement.”
This. So why are naysayers so he11-bent on burning the straw man of “you can’t do X on it”? iPads work great for some, not so much for others. Just because it satisfies 80% of my needs (leaving portability a non-issue for the other 20%) doesn’t mean you should throw away your computers and try to use an iPad for what it is not good at.
Apple cobbler, yes please I would love some.
Clobber? Oh,never mind.
Read the post I’m replying to. Sam is thinking the pads are going to replace desktops and laptops. I’m not putting up any kind of strawman, I’m replying to statements that were made.
