Flamebait - this article did absolutely no comparison of the iPad vs the iPod. No mention even once of the word iPod.

The title is in reference to countless complaints that the iPad is "just a big iPod Touch".

You might consider it misleading but I don't see how it's "flamebait"?

Indeed. I find the iPad itself uninteresting. Of all the hype on Steve Day, this was the only part that got my attention, that for the first time, Apple is using its own silicon. Yeah, it's an Arm, but we knew that would be the case. If it's Apple silicon, it can't very well have an Atom core, the only other real competitor (if you can call it that) in the small device space.
