Funny, I've been waiting for a tablet for my kitchen for a while, and I think this one is it. Easily wall-mountable, throw some heavy-duty wrap on it, and we'll call it good. Plus, it'll free up my iPhone from its use as the iTunes remote when I can just use it with the much larger display. Is this all worth $500? To me, yes. Trying to get a comparable tablet with a nice reader and remote access to iTunes would cost me much more. I'm excited.

I hear that next year they're releasing the iPlate. You can eat off of it plus, you won't need utensils, just your fingers!

I agree with you PAC. The Touch is a valued addition to my kitchen.

There is a product that all ready holds recipes and its cheaper. Its called a Demy.

Its looks pretty cool, however the iPad has a bigger screen and with some appropriately good apps, the iPad could be quite a kitchen accessory.

Considering this device might single handedly save your industry, you should give it a little more credit.

Yeah, except nearly every one of my cookbooks has stains, dried on food, etc, and I'm not going to want to inundate a $500 iPad with flour.

However, I believe I still have a box full of MacAddict CDs from my cult days if anyone wants them. (I even have an original Powerbook running OS 9, a PowerTower Pro Mac-clone, and even a Mac Plus, which I hope to make into a goldfish bowl some day.) I can remember laying out the school newspaper and literary magazine in high school after printing columns of text in Microsoft Word, then later being thrilled that we had gotten Pagemaker and could start just tiling completed pages.

@Andy Mesa,
I really doubt that's going to 'save media'.
Unless the industry your talking about is comically large iPhones. In which case, yes. It's going to save the industry.

As soon as consumers get their iPad on Sat., Rouxbe (pron. roo-bee) encourages every foodie and every “wannabe chef” to check out its online video cooking school at www.Rouxbe.com. On April 3rd, Rouxbe will update its video-rich website to HTML5, making its more than 1,000 high-definition, close-up instructional cooking videos viewable on ANY Apple device, including the iPad, the iPhone and iPod Touch. With these Apple devices at their fingertips, home cooks of any level will be able to go to professional-grade cooking school in their own kitchen and on their own schedule. IMHO, the videos are better than what you'd see on TV on the Food Network, and you can access them whenever you want them!

With a little effort and Photoshop or Gimp you can use a plain old digital picture frame for your recipes. It ain't fancy but it's cheap and it works.

Please wait...
