Who will buy an iPad?

According to this poll, 16% of iPhone users will buy an iPad. What I think will be an even bigger percentage is those iPhone users who will buy a second generation iPad. That's what I might do.

A couple days ago I entered a contest to win an iPad. If I win, I'd say there's a 60% chance that I will just sell it for a little under the original price, pocket the money, and the use that money to buy a much improved iPad in another year or so.

So, what will you do? See my poll to the right.

What is the iPad?

Watched this really interesting segment on the iPad today.

Yesterday I was sitting in my office and looked up and announced to my colleagues, "I think I could really use and iPad."

"It's just the way things are going."

My friends call me the best Apple marketer they know. I tell them I'm just doing what feels natural.

Important points in this MacWorld video:

1. iPad will change the landscape of where computing will go.

2. If iPad will take the market on eBooks with the "iBook" app, that will be HUGE.

3. It is an intermediary device.

4. Our kids will think about using a keyboard and mouse with puzzled looks on their faces just as this generation looks back with bewilderment at using dos and unix to use a computer.
