This was a great article to read. It helped crystalize some thoughts about how I interact with my iPad. I couldn't put my finger on it (no pun intended), until reading through this article. So, thanks for that.

Some of the transformational issues that are surfacing with apps for the iPhone and iPad are that people are simply porting over their web-apps or desktop apps...chrome and all. This is the most obvious thing to do if you're a software company that is trying to make sure your tools are on the devices that a significant amount of people have. But, some more thought needs to go into the UI design vs cramming the traditional UI elements into this new breed of computers.

Also, as I think Apple has done a great thing with the iPad, it's still an early version of things to come. There are times when I use the iPad that things don't feel as natural as they should...some lag, doesn't quite draw the line I had wanted, etc. Obviously, this will improve and I'm excited about what the future holds with these new NUI tools.
