Can’t wait to get your hands on the new iPad? Not me. Now, I am a big Mac fan - the computers, not the burgers - but isn’t there such a thing as too much technology? Still struggling to get my noggin around the latest ‘how-did-we-ever-live-without-that?’ piece of ‘essential’ hardware I’ve been suckered into buying, up pops another gizmo, without which, excommunication from the modern world is surely imminent. Geeks will snigger at such naiveté, but what exactly does Apple’s latest ‘must-have’ do that a phone/ laptop/ iPod/ paper and pen can’t? Wash the car? Iron shirts? My cupboards are crammed with ‘the next big thing’: Betamax player, Sony Watchman, Psion organiser, a robot vacuum cleaner and the combination calculator/ cigarette lighter (yes, really!) that seemed somehow indispensable after a sake-soaked lunch in Tokyo. iPad? iPass.
