Can the iPad do to gaming what the iPhone did to the point-and-shoot camera

Wade Meredith:

Like smart phones and point and shoots, iPads can com­pete or best the con­soles on hard­ware specs while absolutely whip­ping them on plat­form flex­i­bil­ity and porta­bil­ity. I don’t know the con­sole equiv­a­lent of on-device photo edit­ing  — but between app, acces­sory and periph­eral sup­port for iPad, the con­soles have their work cut out for them (Kinect was a good start, Playstation Move was not).

I don’t know if it will ever happen, but this was a good read.
