netbooks can't multitask (well), either...
loupgarous 5th Apr 2010
...but for $500, you're getting into serious laptop territory these days, and a $500 Wintel laptop from one of the mail order warehouses can lay down a pretty good pimp slap on the iPad in terms of processor power, flexibility... just about everything but battery life (but there are plenty of upper-tier netbooks with 8 hours of battery life these days).

Life is full of trade-offs. It's unclear as to whether the iPad's a good one. I'm skeptical. I just wish someone would put netbook technology into a decent Windows tablet PC.
