The apps are for sure a walled gaerdn, but one I’ve bought into already so (for me), it’s a non-issue. Given my experience with the Android marketplace, I’ll take the walled gaerdn but that’s fodder for another post.The multitasking is a concern but is something they can address in software as the hardware seems to be there to support it. It’s also unclear (to me as I haven’t looked at it yet) what the SDK gives devs access to. Apple already has apps that can do things that devs can’t build in. Based on what I’ve seen so far though, I like it.Another aspect that appeals to me (although I hope it gets extended to the iPhone) is the camera connector for the iPad.I agree a tablet-like MS Surface device would be cool this is probably a realistic, consumer facing first step.
