Sales of the iPad soar and demand continues unabated. In less than three months, Apple sold 3 million units, an average of one every three seconds. Clearly, a Rubicon has been crossed in the digital media industry.
Proven sales and positive user feedback now present an array of very real business and product opportunities that were mere speculation only a few months ago.
With the iPad, Apple has created a device that is equally at home curled up in an armchair for a relaxing read as it is to being propped up in the kitchen as a helpful digital cookbook, used to play a movie in the bedroom or at the local coffee shop browsing this mornings' news.
Content producers and owners are no longer limited to immobile TV sets, mobile phones with tiny screens or PCs that place entertainment and information in a secondary role. Major TV networks, online video services, newspapers, magazines and book publishers are turning the iPad into a hybrid TV/PC.
Furthermore, its Wi-Fi connection replaces all those set-top boxes, media players and wires.
