How could this ship w/o a USB port? How cool to put your flip cam videos straight onto this device and watch it, or upload to YouTube?!? Sheesh. Good comment and I agree also.

It's a mobile salesforce that needs a tool like this.<br><br>Agree also on MacOS. It would be better if this was MacOS w/ USB, a webcam and SD reader. I'm sure it'll happen soon enough...! Pharma sales, great example. It's a mobile salesforce that needs a tool like this.

Agree also on MacOS. It would be better if this was MacOS w/ USB, a webcam and SD reader. I'm sure it'll happen soon enough…!

Another great use for it would be for pharma sales, they all carry around laptops now for the doctors to review, tablet would be much nicer. I'm sure there are a lot of others as well, reading text books for instance would be better on an iPad than on a iPhone or macbook.<br><br>I agree with "dischinabox", first revision always sucks, next gen gets better. Also would have preferred they used the laptop platform instead of the iphone platform, not having multiple apps kind of sucks. Great overview.

I agree with “dischinabox”, first revision always sucks, next gen gets better. Also would have preferred they used the laptop platform instead of the iphone platform, not having multiple apps kind of sucks.

The first revision of everything they put out is always very limited in its capabilities. Look at the iPod vs the Gen 2. The Macbook Pro is a great example as well. The 2nd revision was fantastic. Ultimately, Apple will get the sales they need from Macheads to acheive their successful launch. Then when Gen 2 comes out (Maxi Pad?), it'll have a much larger hard drive, an SD slot, and maybe a web cam. Also, since it's unlocked, how long until T-Mobile and other sim card/3G friendly cellular services offer a plan? Also, at what point does AT&T start offering an iPhone/iPad service plan that offers a discount to users with both devices?<br><br>I'm also interested to see if we start to see streaming video services available on the device, ie ESPN 360. Imagine being on a 3G/WiFi friendly flight and being able to watch a sporting event? <br><br>Finally, I think the most glaring omission from this product is a USB port. It's the most universal port for multible devices. Ultimately, I think we got what people predicted: an iPhone that met its match with a rolling pin. I wish we got a 13" Macbook Pro that got it's base cut off. Oh well. I can't give it my recommendation based on my 20+ years of using Apple products.
