iPad Cometh

Today Apple announced the iPad. It looks just like a big iPhone, except no 3G, but with both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. (Did I mention the 25th anniversary of FCC rules or these two products of spectrum deregulation?) [Later press coverage clarified that a 3G version will be available.]Will it change the world? Remember how the Segway was supposed to change the world? Probably not. But it shows that entrepreneurism and innovation are alive and well in Silicon Valley despite most of the industry focusing on commodity products. It shows that FCC deregulation can spark real innovation.
