It can also cure cancer. At least, that's what has been said.

Lookee here - Apple are playing catch-up to all the other companies who have announced tablets.

I'm not a fan. The bezel is huge! Sure, the screen is pretty, and the software will work, but it's just a glorified iPhone with a bigger screen - it can't multitask, for crying out loud. I've heard iBook (their ebook reading software) is pretty snazzy, but IMHO they've shot themselves in the foot with the screen - the reason ebook readers are so popular is because they use an e-ink display, which doesn't refresh like LCD panels, and so doesn't give people headaches or eye-strain when viewed for extended periods.

It'll be bought by the truckload (at its insane price, too - save money, buy three Netbooks) because the Holy Church of Apple preaches that only those who buy everything Apple releases will go to heaven.
