I commented on a previous post that I wouldn't read another iPad article, because all the ones I had read were tripe that bludgeoned the device for ideological reasons, or praised it because it's shiny.<p>However, I respect Joe Hewitt's iPhone work and other writings, so I checked out his article, and I finally got some real insight. This is certainly the best iPad article I've read so far. The idea that we need to re-imagine all of our current software with the capabilities of a large, responsive touchscreen is a good take on the release.<p>The only thing that worries me is the risk... what's the chance people don't buy these things? Apple has had a flop or two in its past, and even though I develop iPhone apps, I'm a bit leery of developing iPad apps.
