The pricing is great. I am a bit skeptical, as I was hoping it would do more, but that might owe more to the amount of speculation and rumor-mongering that surrounded the device. I guess it might be time to upgrade from the iMac G5...

58 days and counting.... it's not for sale yet. I said to a friend if it's priced under $500, they got me on version 1. Well.... $499! Steve Jobs has my number... There is no doubt the next version will be superior and probably out by the end of 2010.... I'm only disappointed in no camera - seems like a perfect device for video conference....

/this analogy seems the best so far...
//and yes, the name is unfortunate...

I think Mr. Jobs answered that one, “Java’s not worth building in. Nobody uses Java anymore. It’s this big heavyweight ball and chain.”

/haven't noticed an issue with Java and the iPhone which is the same browser, what's an URL to test?

I don't think flash is a great fit for these types of devices-smartphones, tablets, whichever. It takes too much RAM and power to work well.

Maybe Silverlight'll fill it's place once the mobile version's out. That would make an interesting announcement from Apple...

I'd forgotten about that to be honest! It looks promising, really can't wait to see the back of flash on every platform.

We'll see how it turns out.

guys, my understanding is that components of HTML5 are already being used so if you have a modern browser you are seeing elements of it now. The whole point is to eliminate all those plugins like flash, silverlight, etc.

Here is a cool example.
