When you get down to the practical level of choosing one device vs the other, especially in a small business context, it's important to identify what each device does better.

I wrote a iphone vs android hype-free article over at the Ringio blog.

If Eli is anything like my kids he is going to get even more attracted by this iPad than by the laptop :-)

About your point #3, I believe in "strong convictions, weakly held", the notion that you speak as if you were right but you listen as if you were wrong. Being able to articulate why you think you're right is not in opposition to being open to the possiibility that you might be wrong.... is this something you would find worthy of respect as an investor?

Jeff, I agree with the basic fact of how poorly run SF is, but the key question is why?? What makes it specially suited to mismanagement?

I see these kinds of reports exceedingly useful in defining the boundaries of convention and in providing a neatly defined conceptual target for being contrarian... it's just a matter of looking at it in the right way.

AOL has a sizable challenge ahead. A company that once was worth $350B is now a mere $2.5B, and they're going against giants with a lot more momentum. AOL still has 100M users and some good properties, but the expectations are so high that nothing short of perfection will be taken as a failure by their naysayers.

It was interesting to see Jason Calcanis come out with a strong endorsement of AOL, though. This may be a case where industry insiders and visionaries are seeing a compelling business with much strength and a solid business model and observers are just not clued in.
