Very interesting. Jan, you mentioned PDF as an example of an open format that governments should be using. However, I attended Goscon recently, and I can recall someone talking about how the format wasn't very sustainable (it can't be easily searched) and how governments should adopt XML-based formats instead.

The cool thing about the iPad is that they actually exist, they are in stock, and you can buy them right now.
I wouldn't really consider these examples 'alternatives' to the iPad.
