Steve Jobs was really good at introducing things — besides, maybe, possibly, the iPad.
I remember it getting pretty much panned by everyone I knew when it was first announced. It wasn't really clear what it was, or why you needed it. Flash forward to today, and those same friends have 18 of them (more or less).
Like many of the things Apple does, they revolutionized the market with the iPad, creating an entirely new type of device we now just call "tablets" — which, I have to say, is a bit better than calling them "pads".
But when did the iPad first get introduced?

Correct Answer: 2010
The answer is: 2010. Steve Jobs introduced the world to the iPad in January of 2010 at an Apple press event. Despite the fact that at first no one knew what the hell it was supposed to be, the iPad sold 3.27 million units in its first quarter and was considered a success. Since then, it’s gone on to sell over 425 million units worldwide across multiple sizes and versions.Source
