Can anyone see an search engine launch to go with iPad and compete heads up for the cloud and the net with google?

The next v of iPad will be even thinner – it will all be an interface to the apple cloud where you store, search, buy, rent and live your digital life without all the hardware and software.
When you do want that, you will use a big hulking mac desktop (49% market shaare owned by already apple) that will also be linked in.

“The most important thing I have ever done..” yup, replace the computer as we now know it.

Bye Bye IT.

I know there has been the Apple cluster supercomputer here and there, but how many companies are actually using Apple as their main DC infrastructure?

With that question in mind I have to wonder why they don't just farm out iTunes and other hosting activities to some other company that does that sort of thing well.
