        I think ease of use means you can go on the Internet and 
use every web site without any problem. As it is, the iPad does 
not support Adobe Flash and a lot of web sites use flash 
extensively. So right there a more powerful netbook has the 
advantage of running full versions of Windows 7 or XP and not 
the mobile versions. I think the iPad is going to compete 
against the iPod Touch and iPhone as well as netbooks. It may 
find a niche in the e-book reader market.
