After years of rumor and speculation, Apple's now taking orders for its iPad tablet. And now that cash money is involved we'll finally see if Apple has a success on its hands by filling the void between smartphones and netbooks/laptops -- something Microsoft and its hoard of vendors just haven't been able to muster. Today's order is delivered on April 3rd (in the US) for free and orders are limited to two per customer. But rather than wait for analysts and Apple's financial reports to tell the tale, let's get a jump on things with an informal poll: are you ordering the iPad?
Did you order the iPad?
Yes, I'm just like that.
Not yet, I want to see what OS 4.0 will offer first.
No, I'm waiting for HP's Slate or some other Win7 device.
No, I'm holding out for a Chrome OS tablet.
What's an iPad?
