The Best Tablet PC

As you're probably already aware, this week saw the launch of Apple's first stab at a tablet form-factor device with the iPad.

From what I can see (without ever actually having seen one), it looks like a pretty neat gadget. I'm not sure it could ever live up to the hype, and I'm not sure Steve Jobs' claims of having invented a whole new platform are entirely justified. But - I can imagine seeing one kicking around my living room as a handy way of browsing the web in front of the television.

What the iPad, and every Windows based Tablet to date, have so far failed to do is adequately capture the needs of the business user. I appreciate that Apple are clearly not targeting this market, but Microsoft have been since at least 2001.
