I think Apple need to get with the times.  |
no they do not they will have fanboys in the millions happy to spend the money and they will also be happy to spend for the adapters to. Apple know how to make money thats for sure.
IMO if someone wants an ipad they will pay out no matter what those who want a tablet will look a lot further and with all the Honeycomb pads looking like they are gonna be stupid money too they will walk away and think nah

Doesn't have the power & versatility of a proper desktop or laptop, but it's more convenient, & if you're primarily interested in consuming rather than creating then it's great. Although there are more productivity apps coming out, & you can use a Bluetooth keyboard if you really need one.
Smartphones are great for out & about use, but the screens are too small for prolonged browsing & media consumption etc.
