Sure. I was commenting more to the between-the-lines idea that he'd make a comparison between a tablet touch screen and a miniature laptop. It's a bit of an apples-and-oranges comparison.

He also complains about sd/usb/keyboard/password as if they are unsolvable failings of apple. I think he seems to miss the point of Apple's approach to life- the 80/20 rule. Not to mention that _everything_ he complained about is solved already.

In other words: Winer has a widely read website in which he has used it as a pulpit to rant about the iPad without doing any research. In other places, he calls himself a journalist- and I feel offended that he'd do that and show such shoddy examples of the trade. :(
