Apple iPad: extremely awkward to use?

Apple iPad: extremely awkward to use?

Apple has just launched a commercial for their iPad, which is up for pre-order on March 12th. Here are a few screenshots from the commercial:

Tuaw.com has pointed out an interesting fact; do you notice anything strange about the leg positions of people using the iPad? It seems that you have to have your legs at a 45 degree angle to hold up the iPad, achievable only by crossing your legs or sticking your feet on a table.

It looks to me that this is either going to cause people to buy the add-on stand for the iPad, or to be very frustrated with trying to hold it and type at the same time. What do you think?
