Considering the rubbish that was tablet computing before the iPad, this device comes from a completely different universe. It's an awesome 1.0 effort. There was/is quite a bit made that it's basically a big iPod. But having spent some time with the device now I have to disagree. It really is something different than a big iPod or what we've come to think of as tablet computing. The brilliance was in not trying to adapt a bunch of GUI metaphors meant for a mouse to a touch screen, but in building an ecosystem from the ground up around touch interactivity metaphors. This I think is what's made it click and seems to obvious in retrospect.
