You: e-mail, iChat, add Greasemonkey to Firefox, send out Google Wave invites, edit code, write macros for Excel, add blog posts in WordPress, tweet, update Facebook, Photoshop images, design, mech layouts, obsessively organize typefaces, tag MP3s, subscribe to RSS feeds, download Breaking Bad torrents, fire up MacTheRipper, run VLC, run sudo, rebuild directories, comment to Gizmodo, snipe ebay auctions, calibrate your 27″, download MAME ROMs, upload to the FTP, and crack with Resourcer.
Your mom, your cousin, and everyone else you know: e-mail, Web sites, iTunes (for music), and photos. Maybe an ebook or film someday. Does Apple have that mall cop movie starring that guy who plays the UPS driver on that show?
not much has really changed in 9 years.

I am failing to see what is better about this, as compared to the iphone itself. And, you can’t use it for phone calls, it requires wi-fi, and it has no camera or video cam=no video conf capabilities. Cool screen, but can’t do multiple apps at once, still can’t do flash….what’s the big ta do?
