The same will go for the iPad. There's a few hours since it was announced now, and I still can't see where it fits in my life. It's just too iPhoney and I already have an iPhone. It's a big, expensive iPod Touch. But I still hope a lot of people WILL buy it, so that it CAN become that big gaming place. @mats effect

There’s a few hours since it was announced now, and I still can’t see where it fits in my life. It’s just too iPhoney and I already have an iPhone. It’s a big, expensive iPod Touch.

But I still hope a lot of people WILL buy it, so that it CAN become that big gaming place.

Had hoped for a lot more, that said I agree it could be a great games platform. As you say the screen size does open up new windows, I would like to see some stuff that's a lot more native to the touch screen rather than adding touch controller buttons.
