More iPad musings

The more I look at this, the more I'm convinced I'm going to wait for the next iteration.  I want to give the market segment a bit to settle and see how things pan out.  One of the biggest problems for me is the lack of Flash support, there are too many websites out there that rely on Flash; I sort of see it on the iPhone and iPod Touch platform, slower processors and limited screen real estate.  But the iPad is being marketed as "The Web in All its Glory, With You All The Time."  Well, not those exact words, but that's the idea.
 
Here are some shots of the innards of an iPad: http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/iPad-Teardown/2183/  Not sure if that one will ever run again.
 
That sound you hear is the lamentation of thousands of Apple Fanboys hyperventilating in unison: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lAl28d6tbko  I know that one won't.
