It surprises me that people don’t understand what drives iPhone, iPod, and what will be iPad sales. The same people are surprised that “fart” applications were so popular on the iPhone, and how stupid that is. Why are all these middle aged men buying fart apps? They aren’t. These same people wonder why “Britney Spears” was the number one search on Google. Guess what? It’s not **YOU**, middle aged guy, who is buying the iPhone, iPod, and iPad. It’s kids! It’s teenagers! Little boys, little girls, mom, grandma and grandpa. They don’t read blogs. They don’t watch Apple announcement videos. They just buy things that are cool and work. And it’s those people who are going to buy the iPad in droves. Yeah, dad and tech geeks (like YOU READING THIS) will whine about how stupid it is, then you’ll go buy it anyway…admit it, you know you will. But the REAL SALES are going to come from the kids, the teens, and the older people who NEVER had a computer before. The iPad absolutely, positively will be REVOLUTIONARY because it will be the first computer many people have ever had. Yup, it will be the first computer your baby, your toddler, and your grams and your gramps ever had! They don’t want to worry about gigs, mhz, serial/parallel/usb/or mouseport mice, and antivirus software — they will just merge their beings right into this “magical” device; you’ll see. Don’t believe me? Go to the Apple Store and watch toddlers. And while I’m not sure….I “suspect” that lots of people who can’t see the magical and revolutionary nature of this device don’t have iPhones. And if you don’t have an iPhone, you don’t “get it” yet. You will, but you can’t until you experience one of Apple’s amazing touch-screens. Yep, that’s the magic. Apple’s touch technology is simply “Magical”. I balked on the iPhone because it looked so simple, I mistakenly thought its functionalities were just basic. Boy, was I wrong. That tiny little phone is quite often what I must use while I’m sitting at the massive desktop…because some of those iphone apps offer functionality that isn’t available on the web. I call that revolutionary. Just you wait. This is going to be big. Is Apple stock undervalued? OH HELL YEAH.

… I think Apple’s going for definition #2 here, in other words: “magic” ? “magical”.
