Apple's iPad

Been watching the Apple Event Live thanks to Engadget.  I'll probably be the millionth person blogging about this but hey, it's what us bloggers do.  It's what we've been expecting fr a long while; a cross between the iPhone and a laptop.  This will also make the e-readers (Kindle, Nook) have some competition as it's about the same size as them.

• Will have 16-64GB Flash Storage
• Bluetooth
• Accelerometer
• Compass
• 10+ hours of battery power
• Will plan to be far better than a "clunky PC software netbook"
• Plays videogames very smoothly
  
• The App SDK is now available for developers (a note for me by far)
• iPad-only apps can be made, thus expect to see games with better graphics and speed.
• iBooks and iWork, works on the iPad 
• Data plans through AT&T with unlimited data for $29.99 and no contract (but AT&T is an instant fail -_-)
• ...but 3G models are unlocked ^_^
• ..and can dock a physical keyboard to it ^_^
  
• Cost of the iPad..starting at $499.99
