Snippet: 30 Days with the New iPad ☇

Dan Frommer made the same original-iPad-to-third-generation transition that I made and his comments are in line with my impressions:

Apple was right with the idea that this thing — as powerful as a laptop, with incredibly natural feeling touch-based controls — is finally the computer that people will want to carry around with them. And it has been amusing to see the competition fail to understand or replicate the iPad’s magic — not one particular feature or quality, but the entire story — and flop in the market.
