BBC Radio News this morning reported one newspaper as saying that "this was the most eagerly-await tablet since Moses".

Me? I look forward to the day when the iGnore is released...

Cheers, Claude.

Why? Well because you've got one in your iPhone, with that other missing bit of kit - a phone. (Actually Skype calls are possible on the iPad).

Wait for it, the 2nd or 3rd generation iPad (around November, I'd guess) will include all the missing bits - including a couple of things we don't even know are missing ... yet :tongue:

And now some naming problems- from the Sydney Morning Herald:
