I agree. The presenter (I can never remember his name) was a metaphor. Trying to do a bad Steve Jobs impression, acting like Jobs without the power. Same deal with the Ipad. I've been disappointed twice in a row by Apple (past Iphone and now this Ipad). I, and I think a lot of other folks, are longing to have Apple knock our socks off as they once did...We were already fantasizing about a TV and got a "meh" upgrade of Apple TV instead of a whole new device. We were looking for something "magical" in the new Ipad and got, okay, but nothing magical. Better at what you do is one thing but it's not innovation. And that's what we've come to expect from Apple. Maybe we're just spoiled or they've just become IBM.
