Radio shack salesman?  :-)

I didn't know that they sold anything besides cellphones
and toys...

So Ipad has magnets in it..  would be great for sticking
pictures and notes to the refrigerator.  I'm imagining a
fridge, ipad stuck to it holding grocery list (champagne,
caviar, veal) with a nice pair of $900 designer shoes sitting
next to it...  AWESOME


I think it's just the "smart cover" that has the magnets--
in fact, they are the way that the cover tells the iPad that
it's on or off.  (Remember the ImageWriter cover interlock?  ;-)
