So what does Bill Gates say of the iPad? He tells BNET’s Brent Schlender

“You know, I’m a big believer in touch and digital reading, but I still think that some mixture of voice, the pen and a real keyboard – in other words a netbook – will be the mainstream on that.”

“It’s a nice reader but there’s nothing on the iPad I look at and say, ‘Oh, I wish Microsoft had done it.’”
