That makes no sense...you'd still be running the same old iPhone OS on a tablet. It's pointless! Are you willing to pay at least $500 for what is essentially the iPhone in your pocket?

If you already have an iPhone\iTouch it doesn't make sense to get an iPad...if you don't have either of those, then it still doesn't make sense to get an iPad. MS Courier FTW!

Please, once and for all, here is a quote from Morgan Adams, an interactive content developer who knows a lot about building Flash and what he had to say:

Current Flash sites could never be made work well on any touchscreen device, and this cannot be solved by Apple, Adobe, or magical new hardware.

That’s not because of slow mobile performance, battery drain or crashes. It’s because of the hover or mouseover problem.
Many (if not most) current Flash games, menus, and even video players require a visible mouse pointer. They are coded to rely on the difference between hovering over something (mouseover) vs. actually clicking. This distinction is not rare. It’s pervasive, fundamental to interactive design, and vital to the basic use of Flash content. New Flash content designed just for touchscreens can be done, but people want existing Flash sites to work. All of them—not just some here and there—and in a usable manner. That’s impossible no matter what.

All that Apple and Adobe could ever do is make current Flash content visible. It would be seen, but very often would not work. Users would hate that broken promise much more than they hate gaps in pages, missing banner ads, and the need to download a game once from the App Store instead of re-downloading it every time they visit a Flash game page.]]>Mar 8th 2010 6:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/ipad-trainspotters-divine-e-book-prices-my-documents-and-more-f/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/ipad-trainspotters-divine-e-book-prices-my-documents-and-more-f/Mar 8th 2010 6:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/ipad-trainspotters-divine-e-book-prices-my-documents-and-more-f/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/ipad-trainspotters-divine-e-book-prices-my-documents-and-more-f/I just checked out http://flashgordon.ws on my Nexus One...

I've been using Flash in my browser on a 6 year old Windows Tablet PC with Wacom digitizer and no mouse emulation - works just fine, and doubly so for Flash-based games. Only Roll-over adds would be affected in the way described in your posted quote. Flash is bigger than roll-over ads; unfortunately, Apple wants to convince all of us otherwise.]]>Mar 8th 2010 6:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/ipad-trainspotters-divine-e-book-prices-my-documents-and-more-f/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/ipad-trainspotters-divine-e-book-prices-my-documents-and-more-f/

SurePress deserves credit for the way it opens up all kinds of new possibilities for touchscreen interaction, but all you ever hear is how annoying people think it is to have to physically press on the screen to do certain things! Seems like when it comes to touchscreens, people expect everything to behave just like the iPhone, and if it doesn't, they think there's something wrong.]]>Mar 8th 2010 7:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/ipad-trainspotters-divine-e-book-prices-my-documents-and-more-f/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/ipad-trainspotters-divine-e-book-prices-my-documents-and-more-f/

That's not really the point. Anything that requires a mouseover will not work. In case you hadn't noticed, a lot of flash stuff uses or requires mouseovers.]]>Mar 8th 2010 8:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/ipad-trainspotters-divine-e-book-prices-my-documents-and-more-f/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/ipad-trainspotters-divine-e-book-prices-my-documents-and-more-f/Just as long as they don't put 'my videos' under My Music.

We want it for video. Better might to have HTML5 yesterday, but until Hulu has it we want a flash option.

Bought it when it was on sale on Amazon for $9.99. Decent read, very disappointing ending.

Each app has its own folder for sharing data and documents with other apps. Apps can also ask the OS “I’m looking for files of a certain type. What’s available?” and get a list of Microsoft Word documents present in all of the other apps’ shared folders.

When you connect the iPad to your computer via USB, it appears on your desktop as a mass storage device. Each of those shared folders is a standard directory ... you’re free to move stuff in and out as you please.

It's similar to how those USB stick MP3 player handles music .. you just "drag and drop" your MP3 files onto the USB stick and sync. Same with the iPad.
