Seriously, people complaining about the specs need to use their heads. Apple has released it at a VERY low price, this is targeting devices like the Kindles. They could have made it 1080p, HDMI, 2 cameras but the list price would have been $999.
They have priced it cheaply, an entry level device for people who want to do internet, apps, ebooks, magazines, TV, music, video/movies, basic spreadsheets with a tiny device using their hands.
If you don't like the fact it doesn't have HDMI, go buy the other 10" tablet with 1080P HDMI for $500. Oh wait there isn't one?
I suggest you take a good hard look at other reading and tablet devices in this price range. How many of them are color, play games, do internet/music/movies/apps/spreadsheets/assisted gps at this price. This will CRUSH many new color readers because consumers can either buy a device that reads books and does basic internet or they can buy an ipad that does an insane number of things.
