It's not a real pc. Go out and buy an iPad and turn it on. Oh wait you can't, because you have to tether it to a real PC first. A new update come out? Tether it to a real pc to update it. Wanna install software outside of the app store? Most jailbreaks require tethering it to your real pc(either the first time or every time). The idea of it being a computer requires a level of self sufficiency which the iPad lacks. It's still a fantastic device - but its not a PC.
