Bring No iPad Here

If someone asked a question about which state would try to impede the use of the iPad by its citizens, I would not think that Israel would be it. And yet this story in the Washington Post reports that the Middle East's most astute government in economic policy has just done that. I do not fully accept Israel's policies in the political field but its economics and approach to technology is something that I have lauded here before. And that is why I find the reason given for refusing to allow entry of the iPad into the country completely puzzling for its wrongheadedness. What's really happening?
