iPad Pad

Did you get your iPad yet? No, I haven't made the splurge yet. That product gap between laptop and phone can remain unfulfilled in my life. I'd rather keep my cash in the bank earning interest--all twelve dollars and sixty-five cents worth.

I think Apple has once again done a great job of creating product buzz to the point of near hysteria. Go get 'em you early adopters. They have left room for a competing product that I will call an 'iPad Pad' for lack of a better name.

Imagine a device thinner and lighter than an iPad with similar capabilities but much less expensive. There has to be a market for such a thing. This iPad Pad would use a multi-layered flexible media onto which images, text and other forms of communication could be displayed. A liquid of contrasting color would be placed on the flexible media to display content. Various technology solutions to apply this secondary color/liquid to the base media have been developed.

Now all I need is a venture capitalist or angel investor to back my idea.
