Yeah, I'm dying for the day some douchebag actually pulls this thing out of his briefcase with a straight face. I'm gonna get out of my seat, rip it from his hands and break it over his face to the applause of everyone in the room.
Because of the iPad hype, several companies are giving away iPads for promotional purposes as soon as they become available. Yes, you really can get a new iPad, but only for a limited time, so be sure to enter soon! Its easy go here and follow the steps
I'm no apple fanboy..I do have an iphone tho... but why do I have a feeling that 70% of all the pundits here owns an apple product and somehow I feel that 60% of the those against the product here will get an iPad in the near future...maybe not the first gen...but soon. Just a feeling...and I am usually right.
this was my comment 8 months ago... i still don't have an iPad... but boy was i right it will sell well. Times a changin' and the tablets were here before but now they are really comin' and this apple thing paved the way...again.
my biggest question on the device is: does the Kindle for iPhone App work with the iPad? I'd love to know because I've got a couple of books on my Kindle for PC App and I'd like to port them to my iPad when (or if) I get one.
I think (hope, i guess...:-) there will be a big iTunes update by the launch of the iPad to make it compatible for the iPad and an iPhone and iPad update wich includes flash...
Does anyone know if Flash is something that can be obtained through a firmware update or if Flash is something that they need to put in through a Hardware update?
nope, i read that apple isn't planning to put flash on ANY of the iPod touches, iPhones, or iPads. EVER. they only support HTML5 which is way better than flash anyway.
this thing was a good idea but it sucks for a couple of reasons, first of all horrible name it sounds like a brand of tampons, still no flash player, no camera, no oled screen, NO FUCKIN USB PORT, no multitasking, and its basically a huge itouch with a few cool features, maybe the second gen wont suck so much
how lazy have we become as a society that must choose to carry around a big rectangular shape object everywhere we go it is really sad i would not take this if someone gave me one at gunpoint
That has got to be the worst internet tablet/whatever it is ever made. Apple products suck, but its a stupid trend. Apple hypes everything(there products) up to sound really good and everyone likes to believe that they are.
Somebody help me because I don't understand what is the point of owning something like that if you allready have a cellphone and a desktop/laptop computer.!?!? I like the way Apple make their stuff sound like it's the next gift from the gods to us... this is a lame piece of hardware with lame software. Microsoft still win the software battle, microsoft surface and project natal win.
as far as i know a tablet is a COMPUTER this doesn't let u multitask let alone run mac os i was looking forward this thing cause apple has made lots of good products in the last few years but this is just shit
No multi tasking No USB ports No Optical drives Can't download apps off the internet Can't directly access the file system Can't open zip archive email attachments Awful screen resolution Droids PPI is higher than the iPads by nearly two fold Can't adjust the UI Backgrounds listed as a "feature" No camera No video out (HDMI) 576p maximum video resolution (TV Quality) And the list goes on...
@somusque actually yes it is a computer. just about every electronic is a comouter even a digital watch is computer. but i do see what your trying to say. it isn't like a personal computer like what im using right now but it still is a computer
@rnawky you are right but havent you seen the little apple on its back? ;) yay, an apple! so everybody knows that YOU are an individual winner, a rich person, a person with style and character :D
What's next? Will Motorola come out with a new cell phone that is the size of a size 8 shoe? I'm sorry, I have no idea why someone would want to carry that around. Surely not for computing, nor for mobile communication. And who wants to spend another $30/month on yet another data plan?
it cant multitask, how can it be a laptop or a netbook? you cant chat while surfing the net. You cant read an e-book while GPS running on the background..
I foresee the main issue is battery life, I don't think you wanna carry ipad around with a bunch of cables / power adapter /charger. It will fail miserably if you can't use it for more than 2 hours . . . if it can survive non-stop usage for 5 hours on a single charge it would be a huge success.
so fucking stupid, whats the use of this? its almost a toyish like design its like a ipod blown up. looks fake and i mean this is for entertainment on the go? or home use like a laptop? with that small of a screen orrrrrr like what people are giong to do buisnes stuff on these....... its so useless

think of it as a laptop/netbook without the base
