Not at all. I'm glad the iPad inherited it's core user-experience philosophy from the iPhone and iTouch - Apple has positioned the iPad as a device suited not just for entertainment but as a tool to G.S.D; a tool that is actually FUN to use.

I'm personally very excited about the potential for applications that really take advantage of touch and gesture to make more mundane tasks not only bearable but enjoyable.

That said...yeah it's a giant iPod Touch.
