Even John Dvorak does not understand the iPad yet, wow. I’ve had mine for ~3 months and am still thinking of various uses for it. The iPad is a game changer in the business world, with many possibilities in various niche markets (e.g. remote field staff, medical/dental, delivery people).

Google “iPad” and “business” and see the results, and visit http://www.apple.com/ipad/business/profiles/ I use it at work for mtgs, it’s perfect. I take notes, respond to email, and connect to our network to open up Word, Excel, PPT, PDFs, etc as needed. And yes, I can remote in to my work laptop at my desk if need be, but that is not required very often. Dvorak is wrong.

Combine the business use with it’s strong appeal as a home entertainment/lightweight notebook and I can agree with some projections of 48 million iPads sold by Apple next year. That’s $30 billion in sales for a product introduced 7 months ago. An AMAZING homerun by Apple.
