For an iPhone-less man, it does look attractive none-the-less.
not revolutionary no! i remember when i was a kid i used to envision on something of the sort.
what this product is a refinement of usage. you use it for ebooks, there goes the kindle market, the 3g connectivity give ability to surf when needed, a decent screen size to watch media.
it has defined function and wont be going beyond that. it fulfills its purpose within the refinement.
what i am disappointed with is that apple seems to be the only one who attempts to refine concepts and products. everyone else are creating plain bricks. users are becoming more aware and seduced with eye candy interface.
linux hit the news big with the new desktop windows managers that were innovated with compiz. unfortunately so far it has been so "techy" to deploy and use it that from a particular perspective, it has become a flop.
apple has standardized its UI. other vendors unfortunately are far behind.
