how did you get an ipad :)

US origin, it was a bit cheaper and I wanted to try it out... ��:)

Whatever what can be said, I like it. 10hours battery life, 1 second wake up, great finger interface...

My wish now is to have a Smalltalk on it... This is close, at least the machinery is working (VM) but we really need to have better suited tools (browsers, commands, etc...). This is probably not complicated technically speaking but it needs a lots of analysis. We should consider what is taking advantage of all sensors and find a coherent way to marry them.

-1, 2, 3 and more finger single and double touches,��

-swipe in and out,��

-screen orientation

-mouvements like shakes

-etc, etc...

Also, do we use an image that take care of everything or do we interface it (headless) with some ObjC/Cocoa applications (browsers, workspaces, etc...)

I think this would be great to have a workshop to discuss on that and I think this goes beyond iOS.

My 2 cents,

��
