I have a theory. The iPad is already a success judging from the sales numbers after the release, but I think what will make it larger than life is actually not the people who are now hyping it. No, I think that the iPad will be what brings people born 1950 and before into the Social Age. Think about it?

Here are some dead sure signs that you are slowly becoming obsolete in the workplace; You see a teenager texting with the mobile and get an epileptic seizure. “Paladin?”… what does that mean? You think social media is for failed 30-yearolds. You call it a tv, they call it a computer screen. You read the tv guide, they wonder what
