At Wednesday’s iPad launch, Steve Jobs noted that,most of us carry a laptop and/or smartphone, and ask whether there’s room for a new kind of device in the middle. His answer, of course, was that there is–and that iPad is that product. That makes iPad the third distinct class of computing device that the company offers–assuming to not consider iPods to be computing devices.
As when comparing products, T-Grid is whipped up. This one contrasts the iPhone 3GS, the iPad, and the cheapest version of Apple’s flagship MacBook Pro computer.The MacBook Pro may be the most expensive and capable of the three, but there are certain ways in which it’s beginning to feel like old technology, such as its lack of built-in 3G and GPS. And I’m starting to wonder how long it’ll be until Jobs decides it’s time to build a touchscreen Mac.
