iPad bonus note: Keyboard is usable. My odd typing style (watching hands not screen) is ideal and apparently futuristic. Touch-typer? Uh-oh.

iPad notes #5: Once you use it, you’ll see that this is the future of computing devices. I want everything to work this way.

iPad notes #4: the thing is built like a tank. There is no flex or bend. The case is good for propping it up but it feels better without it.

iPad notes #3: The device itself totally disappears. Apple’s genius is removing real buttons. You’re hands-on with the interface – no proxy

iPad notes #2: It is sort of a giant iPod touch but the size makes it what it is. Suddenly the iPhone feels like looking through a key hole.

iPad notes #1: The battery claims are true. I’ll start to feel that it must be time to plug it in but it will be 60% full. It lasts forever.

Wow, Twitter bought Tweetie and @atebits will work there on it. Good news all around as far as I see it. Will Tweetie/Twitter app be free?

Awoke today with a start since I dreamt that I had somehow slept past 2pm when unclaimed iPad pre-orders are sold off to the general public.

You know how I know we live in the future? This is in Time’s otherwise positive iPad review: “It doesn’t even have a damn camera.” Future.

Imagine going back to the year 2000 to tell yourself that Apple sells books and is taking aim at Amazon. You’d think future-you was a moron.

What I think the iPad naysayers should consider, is like the move from command line to GUI, the switch to touch has to be a *real* break.
