Happy Tuesday,

Well, the world has seen iPad. Reactions are mixed, particularly on the name, but reaction around the offices was overwhelmingly positive. I am pre-ordering as soon as they become available, and can’t wait to get my hands on one.

I’m really not sure how useful it will be to me, but I am very interested to see how this new software ecosystem develops. The device is clearly too large to fit in a pocket and does not support phone calls or multitasking, but it’s a whole new category; we are fortunate to be able to witness its evolution. No one really knows how it’ll turn out.

It’s too bad my mother got a Kindle for Christmas. Something tells me it’s going to end up on eBay!

Thanks for reading, and keep in touch.
