The Apple iPad can’t come soon enough for some people, especially as details continue to trickle out at a snail’s pace. That is why we are proud to share with you video footage of the iPad’s dashboard in action.

Does it look familiar? Well, to anyone who has owned a Mac, we are confident that it does.

The iPad’s Dashboard will run widgets just as the Mac computers have done for years now. It is a smart move — there are a myriad of quality widgets already available for Dashboard, and by utilizing those existing widgets, the iPad will already have a nice “home” interface to work with.

Yet we can’t help but recall when these very same widgets were one of the most highly touted features of Mac computers. Now — with the creation of the iPad — it appears that widgets will, once again, play an important role.
