Blowing my Own Horn…Just a Bit

On January 28th, referring to the iPad I wrote a blog entry that ended: “Make no mistake, this is a game-changer.”

Walter Mossberg in today’s Wall Street Journal reviews the iPad and calls it a “Game Changer.”

It will change a lot of things: computing, reading habits, publishing.

In today’s news, also note that the end of Amazon’s monopoly means a fairer shake for writers–the cost of a Kindle book dowload is going from $9.00 to $12.00. You’ll be carrying feature films, books, magazines, your email, your kids’ photos, search engines and all the rest on a decice that fits in your briefcase, weighs next to nothing, and has an 11 hour battery.

Does it have room to improve?

Of course! Will the improvement be soon? You betcha.
