The fastest Corvette Nurburgring lap is 7:26. The fastest F1 Nurburgring lap is 7:22. One of those cars has air conditioning.
You're still dodging the schedule claim. The iPad can't have ever been vaporware because they chose not to risk it with an early date announcement. It's just a "hey, they'll be in stores Friday."
I'm not denying the iPad's significance. But it's not revolutionary, it's just the offering that all the apple fanbois flock towards, so it sells a bunch. Find me one person who bought an iPad that didn't already have an iPhone. It's an upgrade, without a phone.

I have met my match in the Fuji SST. That BB shell isn't going anywhere.
