i will tell you what it is in tourjoika ;p
No but really go to this website
www.apple.com\ipad and look at it there is a video, its basically a large ipod touch it comes with 16 32 and 64GB of memory you can attach a keyboard to it and its had 1Ghz processor and no camera for some it could easily replace their day to day laptop or pc and it looks very good, its not going to be rleased until march for the wifi only and then april for wifi and 3g if you use 3g you can pay for a 3g connection and i dont know what plans they will have in england but in america i think it will be 30 dollars per month for unlimited internet usage and data tranasfer..
it looks very good to me and i might get one with a new iphone and imac
you could describe it as a mini pc but it lacks features and has no usb and other cables that the normal pc might have..
some say they will wait for another version of the ipad to be released but i am going to go and play around with it when apple offer it in the stores
