A year ago, Jobs went on about how eBooks didn't make sense. Now he's come out with a device he says will do the Kindle one better. I've never understood why tablet computers didn't sell well and am excited about the iPad. I don't think it'll kill the Kindle. But I do think it'll expand the market, get more publishers and readers on-board the eReading trend, and offer another option for reading.
I think the Kindle/Nook's wireless access is a big deal and don't see paying $20 a month or so for wireless on an iPad. Then again, I hate the subscription model (pay even if you're not using it).
Anyway, welcome Apple, to the world we've been playing in for a decade or more.
