[OSM-talk] iPad app

Put a touchpad on the back of the tablet: http://www.notionink.in/

I'm also told that Notion Ink will consider giving you a free Adam if

outsell Apple powered handhelds at the moment; if tablets continue
this trend, the Notion Ink could be the perfect OSM device.


Cheers, Joseph
