In Star Trek, members of the crew are carrying a tablet-like device called the PADD, or Personal Access Display Device. It comes in many shapes and flavors – there’s even a horizontal one, but circa 2151, the device that was in common use looked pretty much like the thing we’ll be frantically testing this weekend: Apple iPad.
Now, Gizmodo has dug out an iPad app called Captain’s Log that actually makes it look very much like the PADD. The app lets you check your mail or social networking profiles, adding, besides the visuals, little details like the inevitable star date. Yes, it looks quite simple, but if you’re a Trekkie, this is the first app you’ll get.

I abhor the concept of the iPad, but this seriously has me tempted to get one.

This makes me want one…
