Maybe the reason you stop using the iPad after a half hour, is your hands get tired of gripping it? To use it on the couch -- it could use some shaping to meet the human hand more. (Think: those baby bottles with the hole in the middle, and the shape that brings the scale down to something the baby can grab. iPad's designers could indent the back, to let fingertips nestle into a recess near the perimeter.) Some aftermarket accessory-maker will no doubt make a hard rubber thing to fit around iPad's perimeter, to put a grabhandle all around it. It's funny how the iPad commercial dodges the ergonomic weakness, by showing the user having his thighs sloping up as a support surface; meaning his feet are up on the coffee table. Jobs's intro involved crossing his legs to angle one thigh up as a support surface. ///// To use an iPad on a table... the way the back bellies out means you need one of those support rings like Apple uses in the stores. Inexplicably, they refuse to sell them.
