  • one more thing...lol

  • hope to see Jony Ive more in the future. when he talks i think he emits the most feeling of wonder and imagination of the whole Apple crew...since SJ's of course.

  • I want to get the next ipad that has retina display. but ipad 2 is still really good.

  • @0neofthem even ipad 1 is still really good if you think

  • 499$ = 21, 400 PHP x))))

    still expensive for me x)))

    i really want one, but i still have to wait to have a good job to buy one :\

  • boo hooo I can't afford an iPad so I'll criticize it

  • @gbeane79 :))

  • yes the price is unbelievable ....... its fucking ridiculous

  • oh you forgot there was one more thing!

  • one year later and i just got an ipad 1st gen for US$280 :) WITH a free original black apple cover

    maybe next year the ipad 2 will come down to the same reasonable price range and i'll get one then too! I'm sure all the best cam and facetime using apps will have come out by then.

  • Getting 64GB wi-fi + 3G tomoz and it seems like years away and its going so slowley !

  • Is this the wwdc or the macworld???

  • ordered mine 32gb + 3G, i really do hope its as good as they say, just need to wait for it to be posted

  • @fitzybwfc2311 its not, halve of this show is lies.

  • :')

  • thanks Apple team

  • Oh yes i will go back and buy an WeTab that's much better. No bigger Ipod Touch please!

  • @speedytommy007

    WeTab is an unbelievable fail in Germany sorry to say that.

  • 0:39......it sure is an unbelievable price

  • I have one and it really is an amazing device. I call this coffee-table computing. In fact my iPad lives on my coffee table with my magazines.

  • You had me until the buying from Apple's stores part.

  • @straightshooter01 You have to buy the music, movies, books... Kind of like how it's supposed to be then, no? Don't act shocked and appauled when you have to pay for things that you'd be busted for lifting from any shop in the world.

  • I like it. It looks like it could be a very cool e-book and multimedia player - that is if it could stand the wear and tear.

    I know a lot people expect it to be loaded with features and programs like a regular PC plus IPhone but I don't think it was designed for that purpose in mind.

  • whoa one big dose of lovely propoganda, of course an amazing stunning device. Yet if he had had a video chat with a webcam....seems such a useful feature to miss, I use my webcam most days. And it permanently needs one hand to hold it, unless you like typing to a screen that is flat on the desk???

  • overall in my opinion, i think if u have laptop and iphone 3gs, u don't need ipad.

  • @my1past1is1ur1future .. you dont need a laptop or an iphone.. everything like that is just a luxury, same with the iPad

  • @Diligo123 u think iphone and laptop r just luxuries? how can i check my university emails? how can i keep in touch with my family, friends, or the whole world? how can i do more stuff in much easier way, like checking my bank account, checkin my cars tickets? btw iphone can do what other phones do, but in more advanced way. and ipad can be just luxury if u have laptop and iphone.

  • Was this the last part?

  • It still can't beat a laptop....notice how he neglected to play world of warcraft or any mmorpg or even open up aol or msn messenger...its not a peice of crap thats for sure but it still cant beat a PC...Also when did be make a call?!!? how does it beat a phone at all? Granted it looks cool and for only 500$ seems like a good price but i am not sure id buy it considering its an iPod touch overgrown....ill hold out for my iPod touch with a camra and move on!

  • wtf are these sheep doing giving a standing ovation?

  • iPad looks awesome! Read about it for the march issue of WIRED Magazine!

  • Seriously did you guys just watch the same video as me!!! It looks F****ing AWESOME!!! Plus 'adalbertomodesusa' you plank! did you not listen to him at the beginning!! Its not 'just' a bigger Ipod touch!! You obviously did not get what the ipad is! LOL

    It looks incredible! I definitely will be getting on! Apple will make a mint! They bring out the BEST technology!!!!

  • Amen to that man, amen to that!

  • They keep the camera for the 4G version... next year!

  • all right, Steve, we got it. It is just i bigger Ipod touch!

  • I'd put Android in it. Hahaha !

  • am sure the nxt gen of iPad will have a camera.. but it's gonna be shitty..

  • @thomasinabriggscas You don't actually win a free ipad there. they'll ask you a few questions and you can win money to buy one. What a scam huh?

  • I think i will by the 3rd generation ipad, after all the complaints for it get fixed, such as more memory, camera capabilities, multitasking...basically when it can completely replace my computer.

  • I feel the same way but I really want one now though.... Think it would be worth it to buy the low end one now and then upgrade later? It would effectively be the first Apple product I ever owned.

  • @frazierbeyb Yea I know. The price is too high now and it's pretty much useless if you already have an ipod and a laptop.

    I mean, it only comes with 26 gb and that's for 699? common, noone is gonan buy that. I expact atleast 1 terrabyte. i mean u can't use an external hdd and you can't upgrade it either. This thing is not a revolution at all imao. This is a backstep. and the size on that screen? omg I can't keep it in my pocket anymore.

  • @frazierbeyb Multitasking will be on iPad 1st gen....Just wait a month.

  • @frazierbeyb @frazierbeyb Multitasking will be on iPad 1st gen....Just wait a month for when OS 4 comes out.

  • @frazierbeyb you are so totally right !!! i had the same thoughts about it XD

  • @frazierbeyb thats quite stupid. the various ipad versions have a lot of memory, i have the 32gb one and its more than ill ever need. its not like u want to have ur entire movie library on it or anything, you just keep a few movies for when ure on the go, in bed, or just chilling somewhere. so the memory is beyond good. the ipad will never have a camera because that wud be plain stupid, trust me, it just wudnt work its too large. no point. and multitasking is coming out this month. so go get it!

  • I think it should come with a student set of apps that help students process notes and compose word documents as well as math work and stuff like that. The majority of laptop users are college students and I think that it would boost the sales greatly. Also, I hope they add a printer connection or USB at some point so you can connect and print your work. I personally do want the iPad, but without these things, it can't fullfill my needs as a student.

  • There is, its called iWork, it comes with pages, the apples word, numbers,excel, and keynotes,powerpoint. all of which have been redesigned from the ground up.

  • @flyingandrew it takes you 2 sec to download the apps from the app store.

    Whne it comes to printer, you have blutooth and wi-fi which most printers today supports. The only thing it doesnt have that bothers me a bit is camera.

  • I Must buy the iPad ;]

  • The ipad has built in wifi without the 3g one they said so in the I think the 9th video so yea it's worth buying I say. The utube on it is the best

  • @thsdhafdf Or is it? this is just a bigger and gross version of iphone and where can I keep it? it's too big to keep in my pocket, so I can just as well use my laptop.

  • I wonder how long until the jailbreak?

  • @kingpin4569 It's the same OS so you can actually downgrade to 3.1.2 and jailbreak it with blackra1n.

  • no you idiot lol

  • That isnt the most advaned tech of apple, its just an iPod Touch made bigger...

  • i love apple products but the keynotes and the video is kind of annoying:

    AMAZING, UUNBELIEVABLE, GREAAT, ENORMOUSS, BEAUTIFULLLL

    it's kind of stupid. stop it.

  • Most advanced technology of apple. I wouldn't be saying that if I were him...

  • 75000000 iphones and a little over 100000 views - if im Apple - im worried im sitting on an overblown dud about now ...

    this is where reality - credit card cash cow - meets consumer awareness ...

    There is nothing new here - just a quicker way to run up your credit card debt - the real cost of this device is actually using it - you have to BUY everything from the apps it runs, the music, the movies, the books, putting a nice lil tip in Steve's account each time you tap.

    Good luck.

  • @StraightShooter01 thats why it has so much potential.... everything you do on it will cost you money. Apple is still profiting off of their basic iPhone design and OS. People understand how to use it, and really enjoy it. I, myself and not really impressed, but i can guarantee if you give this device 6 months, you will think differently about it.

  • @fearfactor87 i m not so sure. i mean, it's not like you can take it with you in your pocket so pointless to use as a mp3 player. it doesn't have a camera either. why should I buy this thing? i don't need it. i already got a laptop and an ipod, so yea. pretty much useless imao.

  • @StraightShooter01

    You're probably right. But let's face it, software companies, music and book publishers have been wanting the majority of computer users to pay for their products since the beginning. Apple's ITune and etc are the middle men and they can charge us an arm and leg, but they are also backed by the publishers themselves.

    The Internet now finally works in their favor. They'll bet on IPad because they'll at least able to sell their wares via Apple (as opposed to being pirated).

  • I think this thing is interesting... I reckon I'd get one if it had a built in camera... The portability of the thing makes it perfect for video chats.

    I'd agree with other posters in that it needs more memory. 64GB is the maximum? That should be their $499 entry level... If I get something like this, I don't want to have to rely on a desktop computer as a bulk data storage device. As far as DVDrom's go, meh.. that would make it much thicker and heavier. Give me an external accessory for that.

  • How about we stop saying bad things about it. If you hate it so much why did you watch 45 minutes of Steve Jobs talk about it?

  • well cuz we wanted to know what its about ;)

  • also, to be frank, im not a one sided apple fan or a pc fan, I just like to see what they have in store for us thats new and interesting.anyone else agree?

  • things it could have that can make it reach its full potential: multitasking software Enabled flash player Verizon network camera on back and webcam on front cd drive usb ports more memory battery life still pretty awesome. but their presentation was really boring and they overused unecessary words and phrases constantly which was rather annoying.
  • I completely agree with

    samuel007lee i was going to post the same thing

  • Don't know about the CD drive in such a thin device. but I do agree on some points.

    - Multitasking

    - Enable flash

    - Camera

    - Web cam in front

    - More memory

    But then again, it doesn't fit in my pocket. So will it just stay in the car? not sure.. I would rather stick with a MacBook pro. Just my opinion

  • it would cost a lot wit all dat though

  • haha i realized how all these technological advances teaches us how to not be patient nemore. everything is there. but im not saying its a bad product,i actually want it. wat with the iBookstore.

  • it is point less to buy until they make a webcam for it. and it would be alot better if it had a cd rom

  • is there wireless interent so u can use it in the car for the wifi verison?? please answer

  • You would have to buy the 3G version to use the internet anywhere. The WiFi version is just to use the device where there is wireless internet.

  • If it's only WiFi then yes, you can connect to qireless networks; but if you want to connect while in our car I think you want the 3G one. WiFi is best when you're home and are to lazy to get up and go to the computer :P

  • Lol @ haters..

  • Yeah, but there isn't much to hate.. I love apple products; but they failed on this one. It isn't all that, I'll stay with a Laptop. The thing is to huge to have it in your pocket, so what's the point?

  • lol u cant fit a laptop in your pocket either

  • My point exactly. Why spend over 800 dollars to have only 64GB of storage when it's not very "portable". I could just as easy use my Laptop. It does bring a case so I can take it everywhere I go.

  • I want one so bad right now...499 unbelievable

  • this isn't revolutionary and it isn't an unbelievable price

  • @jayry55 Don't hate it until you have held one in your hands, then tell me you hate it.

  • @julianshield1 jobs basically gave us an overview of it.  Jayry has all the right to give his opinion.

    FYI: He never said he hated it.

  • @jayry55 and ur cheap, this should be like 1200 dollars

  • Thanks for calling me cheap.

    Considering it's just a huge iPod touch, and paying 300 more for a bigger screen doesn't make sense

  • @Jayry 55

    hahaha, I was looking at it at the same way... Plus 16 gbs is really nothing especially if you are putting all of the stuff. Besides this will be useless unless you have the 3g version...
