iPads are cool...popular...and I am seeing more business people using them.
I also have seen iPad users who purchased special covers to protect the screen, stands to position them on tables and desks and conventional keyboards they connected to them because they didn't care for the virtual key pad. It looks to me that they just converted their iPad into a laptop, albeit, at a higher cost and with fewer computing capabilities.
Nothing wrong with that. I just found it humorous.
