Good effort post on what the hell an iPad even is. I have only owned one iPad, and I got it for free and later gave it to the kids. Literally the only thing it does better than phone/laptop IMO is a specific type of gaming.

Half a century ago, Steve Jobs, Alan Kay, and others imagined reducing computers to portable screens connected by radio to the world's knowledge. Their vision opened up a huge design space. They named the quest, or question, of realizing that dream "tablet computing."

Interesting. For me: Twitter: never tried on the iPad, but I’m good with my thumbs, and iPads are harder to stash away with kids. Drawing: I don’t. Reading: phone works for me. Streaming: smart TV or laptop for movies, phone for short videos or Twitch.
