I hope the iPad will also turn into a music instrument. Something in the direction of the reactable [1].

It's easy to dismiss things. It's much harder to try to imagine the possibilities and build things.

Reminds me of _why's quote:

"when you don't create things, you become defined by your tastes rather than ability. your tastes only narrow & exclude people. so create."

" Watch how they have memorized all the shortcuts and quirks of their custom line-of-business apps. You'll discover a class of users who want power and control, not simplicity and ease-of-use."

Doesn't "quirks" already imply that it's non-optimal? Shouldn't we think of applications and user interfaces which don't make someone remembering all shortcuts a "professional"? As stated by others before, simplicity and ease of use aren't strongly correlated to power and control.
