A certain format of online video, called Flash, does not play on the Apple iPad.

While there are some workarounds for this, many Web sites are redesigning themselves, using a type of code called HTML5, so they will work on the iPad.

This whole piece is a nice concise explanation but I found this particularly interesting.

Apple has repeatedly stated that although it has been looking at the growing netbook market, it is not interested in releasing a low-end netbook product that produces an inferior user experience as current products do. Other sources have recently "confirmed" that an Apple netbook is in the works, but claim that it will not arrive until 2010.

"inferior user experience"? Oh come on Apple, I love ya but you need to take down the arrogance a notch. Considering how much my netbook using friends rave about their "user experience" I think you might need to take a look at WHY you can't produce a superior product for less than $800 (like maybe create one that DOESN'T have a touch screen? perhaps? *rolling eyes)
