It doesn’t matter how amazing the steak is, if it’s served on a cold plate it’s crap. If it’s served with a dull knife it’s crap. If the gravy isn’t piping hot, it’s crap. If you’re eating it on an uncomfortable chair, it’s crap. If it’s served by an ugly waiter who just came in from a smoke break, it’s crap. Because I care about the steak, I have to care about everything around it.

Perhaps it’s simply a sign of the times – the success and ubiquity of Failblog.org has allowed the word to enter the vernacular as a pejorative noun rather than a verb – but the underlying sentiment is that Apple spectacularly missed the mark with the iPad. I feel like I’m in the overwhelming minority in saying that Apple did precisely the right thing, and will likely be vindicated in the near future.

To much of the geek-sphere, the iPad is somewhat of a disappointment. It’s underwhelming – there’s nothing all that surprising in there, no “oh, and one more thing” to throw some real techno-magick spices into the pot. We saw it coming from a hundred miles away, so now that it’s finally here, there isn’t much surprise left.

Apple’s iPad is not a new idea. They are not the first ones to think of a tablet and as many blogs have pointed out the Apple iPad is not everyone’s dream machine, the hardware is lacking gadgets and the software is not that amazing.
