Walt Mossberg, Michael Arrington and David Carr talk about the iPad with Charlie Rose

The show is available from here. The youtube video is embedded below. Basically everyone believed that the iPad will be revolutionary in terms of introducing a completely “new category” of devices. Many people have complained about the hardware, however the participants agree that the power of the iPad lies in its software. However the drawbacks of the device are also highlighted: lack of Flash, lack of a webcam etc. I believe that Flash will be replaced by HTML 5’s H.264. As for the lack of a webcam, there are rumours that one may be on its way… wait for iPad 2.0!
