iGenerations

On our recent family vacation to the beach, there were 3 iPads, two iPhones, and one iPod.

And these devices spanned 3 generations of users.

They were also present in many scenarios.

I had a laptop, but it stayed in one location.

One night, while seeing 4 people engaged in iPad reading (it’s about as anti-social as 4 people all reading the newspaper and occasionally sharing a tidbit or article), I thought about how the migration to touch screen devices was complete.

For serious work, for now, you need a keyboard. For everything else, the touchscreen will get the job done.
