Wow, its got more memory and higher resolution than a device that came out in 2005. And you can have all that gaming power on a tiny device with a touch screen interface. (Unless you are seriously going to try to sell the idea that gaming companys are going to start making real games that they wirelessly download to the tablet with shitty storage capacity so you can stream it on airplay.)
Truly the future of gaming.
Seriously though, how big is 4g (for tablets)? What percentage of ipads sold are mobile enabled? Everyone I know with an iPad just bought a wifi enabled one. Why would you want another phone data subscription for a device whose only real purpose is on the shitter where you already have wifi? (This also brings up the question of the value of the camera, but I dont know what people want to do with there shitter device).
But I better get paid before I hear about you having one

Actually I think the big news for apple sales will be lowering the ipad 2 to 399 for the base model. The ipad 3 is about the poster child for incremental upgrade, but a 400 buck ipad 2 should sell quite well, just not sure what the profit margin is at that point'?
