What People Do With Their iPads
A new survey by Changewave Research of iPad owners suggests that the device is being used just about as Apple expected it would: as a content consumption device able to support the types of "content creation" most people do, namely send emails.
It isn't clear whether this usage profile is much different from what most consumers would do with their netbooks, notebooks or desktop PCs, but so far the iPad is not being used as a "content creation" or "work" device, as most would have expected would be the case.
