Could care less about the iPad. Took years for me to get an iPod and still do not own an iPhone. Apple overcharges for their products and I’m not a big enough techno-phile to get in early (or at all). Really doesn’t meet any need.

” I used to sit and read through the pages, sometimes just for fun.” That made me smile. I did as well, but with the Worldbook Encyclopedia set.

Nokiarob: Music apps that let you press multiple strings/keys/buttons at the same time is a good example.

james burland,

multi-touch makes a difference, not just a little difference, but a whole planet sized difference to content *creation*.

You mean creating content can be helped by using multi touch? Can you please elaborate on this.

So far the only benefit I’ve seen to multi touch is zooming in and out of webpages.

Great post – with all the talk of the iPad being for family use, i had totally missed the encyclopedia angle for small people

I had a similar experience of being fascinated by learning and reading as a child – totally with you on this thought.

I am also loving this as it means that another Neale Stephenson invention has moved one step closer to reality – The Young Lady’s Illustrated Primer
