That is a very good point.

There's no way this can compete with a laptop etc. but for people who just want to browse/email/maybe play a couple of simple games on a "bigger" screen, and that's probably a lot of people, this could be a good fit. The price means nothing as Apple are able to set it wherever they want for any of their products and people will still buy.

I wouldn't get one myself because, to me, it looks poor and having something that size which is so clearly limited is a complete waste of my time and money, but as Agustin said a lot of people don't want or understand anything more complicated and for those people this is a realistic alternative to a laptop/tablet as they don't want to use it for much anyway.
