iPad - $600 Cat Toy?

I have to admit that iPads are kind of neat. I played with using one for a work dashboard the other night and suggested to my district boss the company should expense one for me to use for that purpose.

He suggested I should wait until after work to drink.

The trouble is, for me an iPad isn't $600 worth of neat. There is a lot it can't do, and those are things I would need such a device to be able to do.

However, other people have found uses for their iPads. One I stumbled across on Geekologie. The video is after the jump.
