Cheers, Pete.
But it has also more functionality than the Ipad. It is also a tad smaller in size.

It can read SD cards, has LAN, 3 USB ports, VGA (+ composite?) and webcam.

I'd rather a thicker device which has those ports (which I think does explain the thickness a bit) than one without them. I'd especially miss the USB ports and SD card reader.
