I was hoping for something revolutionary. Instead we have something evolutionary. Apple have taken the iPhone business model, followed the “Lather, Rinse, Repeat” instructions and come up with a product about which the only outstanding feature is the marketing.

I will wait until I have got my hands on one before I pass further judgement, but I don’t think I will be buying one for myself. I do not see the argument that this device fits between a laptop and a smartphone - at least not if you own both. If you have a desktop and a smartphone, or a regular phone and a computer (portable or not), then it might fit your needs, but I don’t see it taking over in the living room, which is where it seems to be pitched.

Time will tell.
