I think it's humorous to hear the people speculating on what "Steve is thinking" and how it's just 1.0 and will get awesome sauce later, etc... if Microsoft released the iPad (with that name especially) - oh the disdain you'd hear from all sides.
I think truth is...Steve Jobs has historically set the bar high...he even said something about how this thing can't be a big iPhone and then he releases something that is pretty much the iPhones big dumb brother...that is surprising to a lot of people - definitely surprised me.
Alberto Alessi said something about how one has to be willing to fail in order to truly innovate. I don't hold it against Apple that they released a dud...I'm sure they'll come back with something beautiful and functional. But this ain't it.
