Is apple going to let people compete in this space? Or is this a "system" level thing like the dialer that can't be replaced? Seems like someone could do a great job here.
Also, how does google docs fair on the iPad? Anyone given it a shot? How about vim on a jailbroken device? Could be fun..
There is a lot of ballyhoo about the iPad being only for consumption but I think people are dying to create on these things. If only they are given the tools!

Want to make a word processor? Go for it. Pages doesn't come with any iOS device; you have to buy it from the App Store. Also, Apple also made a big fuss awhile back about how Pages only uses public APIs and that any developer could make the same app with the same tools.
