I’ve lived some good stories now, and those stories have improved the quality of my life. But I’ve also let go of the idea things will ever be made perfect, at least while I am walking around this planet. I’ve let go of the idea that this life has a climax… When you stop expecting people to be perfect, you can like them for who they are. And when you stop expecting material possesions to complete you, you’d be suprised at how much pleasure you get in material posessions. And when you stop expecting God to end all your troubles, you’d be suprised how much you like spending time with God.

Instead it functions as the sacred marriage covenant between God and His people.
I’m not even going to mention that this device has the ability to actually do what computers have so far failed to grasp which is that they are far too complex for the vast majority of people outside of work hours and that this singlehandedly will be the benchmark format for the home computer in the next few years. I won’t even discuss how there are a load of big manufacturers now all scrambling to rearrange their current offerings and hardware to create a similar product that delivers their own format (because that really reminds me of how quickly you saw lots of touchscreen devices within months of iPhone announcement).

Taken from a great article written by Andy Higgs on his blog. Raise some interesting points looking (or not looking) at the basics of what iPad opens up and then more, be it niche, possibilities.
