Boo!!!!! $600 over a supersized iPod touch. Don't think so. They need to give it a mac os then it'll be worth it.
 
The iPad looks like total shit to me. Why the fuck do I need to buy an adapter to use USB? That should be standard. And there is a lot more wrong with the iPad. Apple started to get on my good side by utilizing a UNIX core for OS X, but the iPad has put them on my bad side again.

really?
Tell me why, I acctually wanna know.
 
I try to avoid the 1st version of anything anyway, I am sure the later versions will improve on this.


Also, I am waiting to see the introduction of the many competitors tablets that will be arriving this year.
 
I really don't see the point of this. On another forum I frequent a woman was excited to get rid of her laptop, which didn't fit in her bag properly, so she could replace it with the iPad she was getting. :confused: Quite frankly I think she's going to miss that laptop.

This will be big with people who care only about fashion.
 
I am going to replace my Macbook Pro with an iPad in my pocketbook. Cant wait. My bag looks ridiculous with all my daily carries. IPad will work wonderfully for me.

Oh and it will play youtube videos as my iPod Touch plays them just fine.
 
iPad is such a bad name. Could the writers of MadTV sue Apple? Even if it was a sketch from a couple of seasons ago they did come up with the name first.
 
Has anyone "actually" spent quality time with this product??
Yeah, there are no USB ports nor flash. However the shit is pretty slick. Go spend 5-10 minutes with it...
It will replace my HP notebook the summer of 2011.

lol

when you think about it, you could get a regular fucking laptop for that price. And with 4G internet retailers popping up, you really don't have to worry about WiFi hotspots like in the old days of mobile computing. Now, you can have internet anywhere just like you would have on your phone, so there really is no point in getting the iPad unless you really need a big-ass touchscreen.
