I'm an Apple fanboy through and through but this iPad was talked about around 3 years ago as the iPod Touch. So this is no suprise to me.
It's a nice concept but I will not be buying one of these.
I have the iPhone and a Macbook, along with a Sony eReader. So I don't see the need for the iPad to be in my collection at this time.

By then you should be able to get a slate, at least that will have multitasking (WTF apple...why not just use DOS?).

You can also get a kindle or a Nook for a lot less if all you want is books.

Roborock Saros 10 review - Great, but not perfect Roborock Saros 10 review - Great, but not perfect
We tested Roborock Saros 10 robot vacuum for more than two months in order to see whether it is really worth its hefty price tag. The mopping, self-emptying Saros 10 was mostly great, even perfect. But its object avoidance was bit disappointing.

Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra review - obstacle avoidance doesn't work as it should, otherwise almost perfect robot vacuum Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra review - obstacle avoidance doesn't work as it should, otherwise almost perfect robot vacuum
We put the Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra through a very, very long review process. The $1800 mopping robot vacuum is almost perfect, but its obstacle avoidance was surprisingly bad, considering the price - and compared to its competitors.
