Apple announced their new tablet the iPad today. It basically looks like a big iPod Touch and we’ll have to wait 60 days for the WiFi only model and 90 days for the 3G. The price definitely fells like a deal breaker, with the best model costing almost as much as a MacBook laptop. $30 a month seems like a good deal for unlimited data. Big downside here is still no multitasking and there’s no built in camera. Here’s quick info and specs:
