There are a lot of things wrong with the iPad, mainly the fact that it doesn’t have flash, or a front-facing camera. These are the two main complaints about the iPad that I have heard. The present lack of multitasking is an issue for some, but not for others.

But that’s not the reason the iPad hasn’t been that much of a success. The problem with the iPad, is timing. To launch a completely new type of product during the recession is not the greatest business plan, not even for Apple. People just don’t have the money to buy one. You could argue that $500 or $629 (3G) is cheap for an Apple product, but not really. It lacks basic features of a computer, and it also lacks a phone function, which makes it useless in case of emergency….

It’s not especially good at anything, nor is it very bad at anything either, but still.
