the lack of multitasking fits the form factor

You'll get multitasking this fall with OS 4.0

Just saw a clip of a guy who put the iPad in a car dashboard.
So I guess there really IS something an iPad does better than a netbook.

Wow that last sentence must have cost you some serious effort to type Patrick :D
Kinda nice to have a "mac" and a McIntosh.....
Where did he leave that amp by the way, and man is that a waste to put that in a car (I didn't listen to the sound of this clip, maybe he didn't actually use it in the car ?)

No, I see some benefits to the form factor. Just not so much in webbrowsing, media playing and PDF reading.

I was wondering about the cost too, but a car stereo can be hugely expensive too. Especially one with a TV screen. This iPad is probably a lot cheaper than most alternatives.
Besides, it's not actually fixed to the car. He can slide it out.

Today ... I want an iPad ... or another tablet device that is good with PDFs.
I finally got off of my butt and ordered 20 years worth of the Digital Archives of GameRoom Magazine on DVD. (highly recommended, BTW).
I have a nice office setup, including two secondary LCDs that rotate for nice reading of portrait-oriented material, but it isn't the same as having a device that I can carry around then sit outside with a nice cold beer, flipping through the back issues.
