As everyone in the world knows by now, CEO Steve Jobs has launched Apple iPad tablet today at an event in San Francisco.
As Digital Daily’s John Paczkowski writes in his liveblog of the confab:
“All of us use laptops and smartphones, now. And the question has arisen lately: is there room for a device in the middle…We’ve pondered this question as well. “
This “middle” device, says Jobs must be better at doing certain tasks than either the laptop or smartphone. If there’s going to be a third category of device it must be better at browsing the Web, video, photos, music, etc.
“Some folks say this device is a netbook…problem is, the netbook isn’t good at any of these things.”
But we have something that is, says Jobs, “and it’s called the iPad.”
The event is going on still, as Jobs rolls out all the various bells and whistles.
More to come…
