I watched parts of the announcement. I watched the little Apple ready-made video. And I checked out the various sites that were feeding live from the event. For what it is, it's perfect for many applications. I wanted one after the pricing was announced and it fell exactly in the price range I had hoped. The problem is that you have to attach dongles. I think that will be a deal breaker for me. But like you, I hope this means there are some even better products about to come onto the market. I'm not an Apple hater, but I love a little bit of competition. ;) I was one of those people who were pretty apathetic about the device. I watched parts of the announcement.
