The iPad is Not the Miracle Device Publishers Wish It Were

This is an entertaining and logical take on the iPad from my old boss, and reflects very well what bothered me so much about the media’s pre-iPad salivation:

The iPad is a gorgeous appliance and I wouldn’t bet against it, or be without one, in the short term. But content creators ought not to delude themselves about Jobs’ efforts to replace the chaos of the Web with his own velvet prison.

Agreed.
