Wall Street Journal Tech columnist Walt Mossberg reviewed the new Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL) iPad and called it is a "robust, general-purpose devise" with the potential to change portable computing as we know it.
Mossberg also said the multitouch user interface threatens the mouse-driven interface.
Downside of the iPad is that it lacks a physical keyboard, a Webcam, USB ports and multitasking, he said.
Mossberg verdict was that, "while it has compromises and drawbacks, the iPad can indeed replace a laptop for most data communication, content consumption and even limited content creation, a lot of the time."
