Supposedly Slate is a whole netbook with a touch screen, so I presume it can interface with a printer.

Would a USB bluetooth adapter work on a printer and the iPad?

No, unless Apple supplies drivers for the iPhone and iPad.

Plus, there must be a "print" command / option in the apps.

So, w/o Apple's involvement, this is not going to happen.

Google is designing something for ChromeOS that might be viable on the iPad:

Google Drafts Cloud Printing Plan for Chrome OS - PCWorld Business Center

But with the current animosity between Google and Apple, it'll probably never happen. I'd like to think at some point there will be some option to print from the iPad.

I want to see how that copy would come out. I bet it would actually work.

My sig is 1 pixel too big.
