This is because Apple decided to make the iPad basically an over-sized IPod Touch, not a shrunken Macbook. Myself, I'd be more interested in a scaled-down Macbook.
I predict this will be a disappointment for Apple, until they fix some of these flaws. Most people who would be interested in an iPad already have an iPhone, they won't see a compelling reason to get one.

i absolutely agree with you... it could have been a lot more useful as a scaled down mac book... i still love it but it just seems pointless... I mean there are mac books and iphones and gaming consoles... where are we going to need this?
The iPad has no expansion path and will never garner the imagination of tweakers who make these devices grow in function and popularity. Watch for product revisions in the near future to add the features mentioned.
what should we expect when these electronic manufacturers set profit as priority instead of quality. Outch.
