This is an article from gaming website PlanetXbox360.com looking at the recently announced Apple iPad and whether or not it has any shot at being an actual portable/home gaming system.

"Every year or so at the Apple Keynote Event, Steve Jobs, the face of the company, has presented something to the slavering public to make just about everyone want it, even the PC and Linux faithful. So, much to the disappointment of several gadget wizards and technophiles, the unveiled iPad is proving to be far more underwhelming that originally thought. Following off the heels of products like the iPhone and iPod Touch that are slowly proving Apple’s capability to compete in the greater video game market with creative and clever apps, the iPad seems to be taking a minimal step forward, if any at all. Regardless of whether or not gamers will quickly dismiss the iPad as merely an enlarged version of the iPod Touch, that’s really what it’s shaping up to be. For a product attempting to be a middle ground between the iPod Touch, currently available netbooks and Macbooks, this is a monumental disappointment."
