My first reaction to the Apple iPad when it was initially introduced can be summarized in a word or two. Too heavy! That reaction was shared by many consumers. The Joongang Ilbo examines this dimension of competition among tablet computers in an article this morning. The accompanying table (click on the graphic to see a full-size version) compares the dimensions and weight of Samsung's new Galaxy Tab 8.9 with two other rival products. I've long thought that clip-board or standard paper size tablets are going to be widely adopted when they become as lightweight and as thin as an old-fashioned clipboard or paperback book. We're very rapidly approaching that stage.
