A phone by Apple got everyone (me too) excited. I don't see why a tablet would create the same excitement, outside fanbois.<br><br>Seems more Mac and than iPhone. Gary brings up an interesting point about Macs, but I don't see that happening. I suppose the tablet is the answer to netbooks and OS like Chrome OS and Jolicloud.

It's what Google are pushing with their OS.
