Captain Picard unveils the iPad

[Magicjam10]

That isnt a tablet its badgesn

[roboboy23432]

0:10 To waste time when we could be something boringly productive, sir.

[JamesDaren8000]

Steve Jobs credits The Next Generation and Data for the IPod....it's the episode where date morphs a bunch of songs in a playlist

[nunnyadamnbusiness]

Well played, sir

[pauldwaite]

Nailed it.

[nosnaj]

It is for vanity, it is.

[whatsmyface4256]

I don't see why is so funny. I mean they refer to it as "them" not IT!

[JasonosuketheOtaking]

I was expecting the PADD, but this was very amusing, just short of lol irl.

[willyumsstudio]

I see a collection of medals or trinkets in a frame, which looks nothing like an iPad. It's not even digital. How can that even be referred to as an iPad?

[CrackedButter]

@willyumsstudio they should have videoshopped an iPad into the video.

[MisterXenocideZero]

Very god episode, one of my favorites

[nvadah]

Could've just skipped the UnPlug and iExtractMP3, and recorded the Jobs voice directly from Audacity :p

[R0B0stairs]

BOYCOTT APPLE: SLAVERY

[BMVlado]

lol ipad, lol apple products

[flobogirl6]

For some odd reason I find this very amusing. Although I did not expect this serious scene to be the one to portray it. :P

[TekLok]

nice 50% job there, you failed to to make it look like an ipad

[22TheZap]

Something similar is showed on the original Stark Trek. Sci fiction fans new about the tablets as a concept far before anyone was even talking about them. Another case of sci fiction predicting the future.

[baldurus1]

And Data confirms how useful they are.

[mcavic]

I like the part where Picard pulls out something resembling an iPad. Oh wait, he doesn't.

[Freddyphelp]

@mcavic Jeez you apple fanboys are a precious bunch aren't ya.

[mikeysrose]

"Measure of a Man"!!!!!

That's my favorite episode. <3

[samadbaksh]

LOOOOL



[alleVONnalle]

What logical purpose do a ipad have??? Well I suppose none.

[fpsBeaTt]

@alleVONnalle you do realise you're making a joke that every moron under the sun has already made.

[alleVONnalle]

@fpsBeaTt Nope, i am a moron under the moon :D

[fpsBeaTt]

@alleVONnalle hurrr

[MrTorme98]

It's a frame filled with medals.

[AdisloKazdan]

Nice,but i,m not going to buy it because i find id useless.

[CyberDragonZero]

How dare you mess up such an important scene!

[Primus2X]

Exactly why we buy Apple Products

[YouAreThick]

Aww this has upset 56 iTards ;( but WATCH IT PICARD APPLE WILL SUE YOU. Only Apple can make rectangles with rounded corners, look what happened to Samsung.

[Cernoise]

Why did he keep his iPad inside a printer?

[NucularRobit]

@Cernoise Because Picard heard he likes hardware. So he put his hardware inside his hardware.

[tcpwrap]

@Cernoise That's not a printer, jeez so foolish. It's a litter box.

[datzfast]

i pad beats the video tampon

[Matzethelexx]

Wenn man alle DVD´s von Raumschiff Enterprise das nächste Jahrhundert hat..und auf der Englischen Spur umschaltet, ist es einfach..das dieses Video gefälscht ist. Auch wenn man sich die Szene genau anhört, merkt man, das, daß Hintergrund Geräusch sich ( Das Rauschen des Raumschiff) merklich verändert..zudem folgt danach wieder die "Normale" Stimme von Data, vergleicht man diese beiden stimmen vom Ton her, merkt jeder Mensch, das hier gefälscht wurde.

[Nubalakula]

@Matzethelexx Wasn das fürn n post? Du glaubst doch nicht ernsthaft, dass irgendwer auf die idee kommt, picard könnte im orginalen tng eine medalliensammlung hervorholen und es als ipad präsentieren? das gabs damals doch ncoh garnet. *kopfschüttel*

[Turbokiller621]

come to the channel of turbokiller621

[madeinhawaii]

so shouldn't this end the samsumg apple battle. apple ripped off star trek

[MrYaoGuai]

is that really an i pad

[TaintedMustard]

@MrYaoGuai It's 1989.

Of course it is.

[MrYaoGuai]

@TaintedMustard the ipad came out in 2010 actually

[TaintedMustard]

@MrYaoGuai Yeeeeah. That was a joke.

[inputverifier]

Those are awards in a shadow-box :P

[AceObrin]

I just... wanted one... is that vanity?

[StarTrekRocks100]

The PADDS that they used in TNG were not functional. Just simply a piece of stryene and some graphics. But in Star Trek Insurrection, the PADDS were light up because they started using light boxes. Some PADDS have isolinear chips in them

[snackpeelskin]

LMAO excellent !

Great job, Dude.

[searchanddiscover]

i want it for trainz sim because my computer can't handle the real thing.

[ocerg1111]

data: For Angry Birds, sir.

[HelloHansSolo]

@ocerg1111 FUCK YOU, Boogernugget cunt!

[dropdead156]

foreshadowing 

[MrEhGames]

Below the case is an iPod! No it's just a regular PADD...

[madturki]

Wasn't too bad... But the voice was off too much and it wasn't nearly long enough!

[VitalSigns1]

What the fuck is this? You sure are one lazy video maker.

[MeissnerFlux]

@VitalSigns1 WAT?

[VitalSigns1]

@MeissnerFlux What the hell is this supposed to be? That's what I'm asking. What exatly is an iPad?

[MultiChrisjb]

@VitalSigns1 It's used for angry birds

[GamerFromJump]

They're damn good readers for magazines and other texts with color.

[ButtersStotch7000]

"What logical purpose do they serve?"

Picard, I've been asking myself the same question ever since the tablet craze started.

[Accipyterius]

if more of Star Trek comes to life we are heading to a nice future.....

[pantamitKUY]

Wa haahahaha,Stive job only.

[codeythesilent]

looks like any ol' tablet PC to me.

[Mrfreemen6611]

Ha ha ha........no

[poppaonboard]

it looks like a Windows tablet heavy,

[Pauolin]

He doesn't even touch it, it's just a screen.

[mastercfromhalo3]

@Pauolin its just a case with starfleet medals in it...

[EightPointsKeyXII]

Anyone notice the star of David above the golden triangle?

This must be the eye-jew.

[plumage12]

The fanboys are out in force! Don't you dare laugh at my iProduct!

[noobenstein]

@plumage12 terran OP.

[NaofumiTakata]

I looked into this the captain Jobs !

[ChingChongCification]

LOL....HE LOOKS LIKE JOBS TOO.

[brbbob]

Data's medals of Honor and such In a framed glass case.... is an i-nothing... Am I the only one who noticed this?

[shadowedge69]

@brbbob I was thinking the same thing. It looks like real medals in glass, not a pad. The pads are used quite a bit though in Trek so not sure how people got confused.

[brbbob]

Data's medals in a portable case.... is an i-nothing... Am I the only one who noticed this?

[AnotherSchmoe]

@brbbob

Yeah we know it's his medals (or I do) but I think the uploader just wanted a clip of Picard pulling something out a box and going "What is it?" for video purposes. There are plenty of times in Star Trek: TNG where they use real tablet computers though.

[colacastell]

guys if u see in this flat stone an iPad i don't know whats wrong with u...

You mean Steve Jobs saw this Episode and sad: Wow thats nice, i call it iPad and sell it! nice idea!

STUPID!

[jolem53]

That's funny!

[helpstring]

Die ganze Wahrheit.

[ThinkLearnSolve]

don't pollute this awesome series with such crap!

[BRKibbeyful]

It's... it's a medal case... like the one I have in my living room... how incredibly deep in a cave do you have to live for this to be anything more than incredibly lame?

[LuisManuelLealDias]

This is brrriiilliant! :D

And I love iPads!

[000CODE000]

haha so true :D

[asuch874]

Actually they be having ipads all over the ship.

[applesweeter]

Dear All,

I have some questions about psychology:

(1) Why do we love space travel?

(2) Why do we want to explore the space?

(3) How does space technolgy benfit us today?

(4) What should be included in a space ship to make our space journey more enjoyable?

THANK YOU IN ADVANCE for your creative ideas and brainstorm!!! :)

[doubleKlutch]

@applesweeter

1)We love space travel because people in your country cheat on their homework.

2)We want to explore space because people who actually did their homework are smart enough to do it.

3) Space technology benefits us by setting fire to stupid people who will just bribe their teachers for passing grades like every other Chinese 'academic'.

4)Space ships should be stocked with unimaginative, boring, drags on society that can't answer some simple-ass questions to be used as hull patches.

[applesweeter]

@doubleKlutch

To: doubleKlutch

Silly!!

[doubleKlutch]

@applesweeter Ask silly questions; get silly answers.

[jacksawild]

@applesweeter 1. What makes you think we love space travel? 2. Why do we want ot explore anything? 3. What the hell is "space technology"? 4. Prostitutes.

[bassguitarrocker]

I'm surprised that the dislike button of this video has not been raped by "apple boys". At least not yet.

[furryluv]

@bassguitarrocker They don't 'cuz they know deep down it's true ;P

[cacranb]

Twitter Trek?

[Abiodun14]

Fake..

[asphere8]

@Abiodun14 thank you sir-point-out-the-obvious-alot­. it's just for entertainment.

[iodyn]

Plus its far from Just an ebook reader.. The games , the learning softwares, the hd video rentals, finger painting, piano playing , music creation software, photo editing, skyhook gps positioning... Its a bargain for people who want a simple computer that is amazing to use

[mastgrr]

@iodyn If I was going to buy a computer for an older person today, I would buy them an iPad. It just works. It starts in 1 second. Touching is easier than using a mouse. It can send email, browse the internet, etc. There's just no question that in some ways, it's simpler and better than a regular computer.

[iodyn]

Ipad is the shizzle... What vanity ? Its 500$ ps3 and xbox 360 was more expensive at launch...

[otherjr]

@iodyn But when the PS3 was launched, people didnt run around shouting 'Look what my PS3 can do, look at thise app!'

[LeonDuhaney]

This is why i never get apple products!

[subtrafusel]

Fake.

[funrizwan]

@subtrafusel ya think?

[paulus2040]

Yep Data, that's right, all humans getting an ipad, just get it because of vanity....!

[7zipzapper]

Couldn't have said it better myself! It's like wearing a Giant Apple Pin on your shirt with a lip kiss over an Apple logo on it! .....and it's relelagated to just being a single purpose device one step up from an eBook reader!

[tjnaples]

yep, fail indeed

[scarborough165]

fail

[haejnyZ]

IT'S FUNNY CUZ IT'S TRUE!

[fpsBeaTt]

@haejnyZ @LT51 so sheep-like you follow the sheep that shun what they perceive with their limited understanding to be sheep.

[LT51]

pretty much sums it up.

[TaNgEnTsHigh]

First... and awesome :)
