I would be even more critical of the HN crowd nay-saying the device. Its too soon to tell, but I think that Apple may have made Something That People Want. To say that it sucks because the highly specialized group people that we belong to thinks that it is "wrong" is to miss the point of entrepreneurship entirely. And really, any time that you say "I won't use one... but I might get one for my Mom" should set off The Bells And Whistles On High.

And really, any time that you say "I won't use one... but I might get one for my Mom" should set off The Bells And Whistles On High. I think that's a little unfair. I would characterize most of the negative responses I've seen on HN as more like "I won't use one... if it had a camera at least I could get one for my Mom to use Skype on... maybe rev 2 will be better".
