David, > They retained their Imac as a "server device" for the mobile devices.

And my desktop PC is a "server" for my iPhone and iPod.

PCs and Macs will never be replaced. Their role might change in a world where handhelds are increasing in popularity, though.

No way you can create documents such as letters, spreadsheets, or Powerpoint slides on an iPad. Unless you connect a mouse and a keyboard, but then it becomes a notebook PC or a Macbook.

I don't want to have to buy an iPad to get the App Store. Let me have it on my MAC or PC. MSFT has been very quiet about their plans for an App Store. I like the way that IE is settting up, sans menu bar. Still very early, but it would have a book reader from Amazon. I can't find the reader, but the bookshelf from Amazon is in place.
