No intent here to further flaming of any sort, just a suggestion that perhaps a re-reading of what Brem wrote might cause you to re-frame your reply. That's all.  (keeping it cool).
Thanks!

Even allowing for the "and other devices like it (iPad)" it's still a silly thing to say. The internet has been doing multimedia for almost two decades and it has gotten better and better. In the mean time devices like smart phones and netbooks have emerged and people have been talking about wireless tablet computers for a few years now. Apple has made a big splash with its iPad (but do keep in mind it does not do Flash one of the most prolific multimedia apps on the internet) so no I don't see "The new surge in "multimedia" is being fueled by the iPad, ..."
I see the iPad taking advantage of where the internet and technology have reached at this time. The statement was completely backwards as far as I see it, thus as I said, silly. The iPad exists because of multimedia and technology not vice versa.
