  • only niggers use ipads.. somebodys gotta lynch those damn niggers, fuckers think they can do whatever they want now a days

  • iPad is class, everyone hating on it are just pissed off they are not getting it.

  • if this is supposed to be good then a no camera 1995 flipphone must be like FANTASTIC

  • lol silence button...

  • The upgrades from the iPod Touch:

    1. Nearly everything goes landscape

    2. Larger display

    3. Larger keyboard

    4. Faster processing

    The lame disappointments:

    1. Missing Weather app, Stocks (didn't really use it) Voice Memos, Clock, and Calculator. What the hell? I used 4/5 of these features on my iPod. Why'd they get rid of them?

    If you can find more disappointments, BESIDES not having a camera or flash, let's hear it!

  • @Sk8erjdh11

    Price ;)

    But that's not stopping me from getting one when the next gen is released. xD

  • @simsoy .......IPOD can't be touch! you mea IPHONE.:)) love 0:20

  • @DariaNatasha there is actually such a thing as an ipod touch :)

  • i think it's better to wait for the 2nd generation......!!

  • its IS a giant ipod touch, but its still a giant IPOD touch. And it has a different feel. Its cool, but im going to wait till the price drops, Flash, USB and SD get interaged not in adapters.

  • @simsoy55 The price won't drop until they release another model, probably early next year. Apple and Steve Jobs has already commented on their thoughts on Flash, therefore, it's almost a 99.9% guarantee that the iPad (or iPod Touch or iPhone for that matter) will ever have flash. Same with USB and SD without adapters.

  • Bloody iPad, worthless. A tampon has more features and can do more,

  • It needs a camera that's a lacking feature what if you want to upload a pic or video to facebook or YouTube you to connect to iTunes and all that for a couple of Picts and bids and you got this big iPod next to your computer they should of put a camera on it

  • no usbno flashno camera restricted applications...i though apple stood for innovation and creativity, any apple fan would state that apple is a trend setter for the electronics industry, think down the road do you want a computer or personal device that you have no control over what you can and cannot put on it, and a corporation decides what is right for you and wrong for you? is that a good trend to be setting in this industry?

  • @sneezewortt your just such an idiot...

  • the design is shit

  • a gigantic ipod touch

  • no camera = fail no multitasking? = fail

    ipad = fail

  • @xPhoenixDown camera: can you really imagine how akward it would feel taking a pic on this thing, and as for the multitasking the new os 4.0 coming out this summer will have multitasking

  • @xPhoenixDown why does it need a camera? aren't cameras for that? multitasking later this year if you look in the news at all.. clearly not

  • I have only one Apple product and I barely use the stupid thing. I myself am both a Windows and Linux user. When I first heard about the product specification I knew right then it was a joke. I'm glade to see some one else thinks it was a joke as well.

  • @gunthermeyer its the oppisite of a joke

  • so what is the difference between the iPad and the iPhone??

  • @op3nurm1nd the iPad is like 100000x bigger

  • when can we buy it when does it come out

  • i hate nerds.

  • first 16 words of this vied sound sooo gay

  • @BeatlesFan32 LOLLLLL

  • @BeatlesFan32 yeah he wanna feel it in his hands

  • @aaquib5 watch your mouth. People in youtube are so rude today.

  • The Apple rep. is an idiot.

  • It's now officially a rotation on/off switch... 0:19

  • @tgraham83 it's NOW officially a silent on/off switch... 0:19 ;) iOS 4.2

  • Hope they make it support FLASH in a later software update

  • @adam1611

    Oh puuuuh-leeeze!! I'm so tired of the "WE NEED FLASH!" utter BULLSHIT clap-trap trolling. As if I need BANNERS?? Flash is DEAD! Get a life and catch a clue! Apple will NEVER implement Flash and that is a GOOD THING!! You can't name me ONE function or site that is worth my time or couldn't be done as well if not FAR BETER with other OPEN STANDARDS. How much of a complete TARD does one have to be to think you NEED Flash??!

  • @lin2log I din't say we needed... I said meant it yould be nice... If adobe fix all the crashes

  • @adam1611

    Oh right... why the fuck would you even WRITE it if you didn't in fact believe you for some construed reason thought you NEEDED it?? And fix WHAT crashes?? How can something crash that doesn't even RUN on it to begin with??

  • wow.. the apple service seems to be very good^^

  • The Apps are whats going to make the iPad an amazing device. I think people are complaining too much about the device, but this thing is really gonna shine because it provides a canvas from some amazing things to be done. Example: drawing on this thing with a Pogo stylus will be awesome. There are so many possibilities and we'll soon see them.

  • @RatioTrader

    A STYLUS?? LOL! Wow, I can see that you have a firm grip on the whole concept... NOT!! That Pogo piece of shit?? If it were *pressure sensitive* then MAYBE. One can only hope that Wacom will come up with something, in which case the iPad would rock even more than it does already!! But POGO?? LOL... moron.

  • To be honest, it's neither here or there...not open enough to replace a full netbook/laptop, too big to be completely versatile.

  • Keynote looks revolutionary. (I never thought I'd say that before!)

  • What is The point of an iPad its jus a Oversized iPhone Or Pod !!!

  • no it isnt, havent you seen the keynote? it does much more!

  • Triple the size, triple the horsepower, triple the App possibilities and thus triple the usefulness.

    What is the point of a "full-fledged" Windows 7 Tablet PC if just doesn't work well in REAL LIFE? Like the Archos 9: SO MANY iPad haters compared it to the Archos 9 saying it would kill and etc and it turned out to be a POS wannabe

  • @shawtygotteeth

    the point of it is to really be more of an e-reader to compete with other e-readers such as the Kindle from Amazon, reason for the size. Apple plans to come out with ibooks store, in order to sell electronic books just like how they sell music on itunes.

  • @shawtygotteeth you dont get it

  • it's not worth it if you have an ipod touch you don't need one if you have an iphone you don't need one but you an ipod or an iphone you should get it but everyone else don't get this it's a waste.

  • I disagree. iWork will be available, and it'll work with an external keyboard, and the screen size is large enough to read content on.

    But most important, the real estate afforded to app developers is very valuable. After using an iPad, you'll feel 'fenced in' when you go back to your iPod Touch.

  • but everyone will but it because its apple it has no use to me because i have an iphone 3GS and a mac computer so to me its a waste

  • You didn't say, "no use to me," you said "everyone else don't get this". Thanks for coming back to clarify.

    If you watched Jobs' keynote, you'll see it fills a void that's between full size computer and iPhone. I have iPhone and MacBookPro. Won't be getting one at release, but will be watching for apps. If there are good content creation and presentation tools available, I can leave the MBP and cables at home, just pack iPad instead.

  • no problem but to me its just a washed up mac book i think its cool but to pricey

  • @510Erock ]

    Shut the fuck up you idiot!! its not anywhere near a macbook it is not even 10% as capable as a macbook its more like an iPhone and 2 the price is unbelievably great for its size and capabilities it starts off only a few hundred dollars than a iphone!

  • thank you you have just named all the reasons why i don't need one

  • I just watched the Keynote and it pretty useful but still not good enough for me if they come out with more stuff then I'll might consider

  • @510Erock you dont need anything. when your browsing the web for more then 30 seconds everyone knows the iphone's screen can be hard to keep looking at...

  • if u think this is crap and stuff, wel just think 1 thing ........ 9.7 INCH DOODLE JUMP, WOOOOOOOOOOOOO

  • For a product so much more powerful and expensive. The wi-fi speed should be, in my opinion, much faster. It took quiet a while to load some of those pages compared to loading them on my laptop.

  • Lol wut? The thing has n wireless and pages loaded like a charm. You try to share your wi-fi connection with 150 other people...

  • getting one on the 27th :D

  • i wish you could but it ships on the 27th

  • Its strange looking at it you think its pointless but when you actually think about using it infront of you it seems like a good idea. Laptops aint too portable and it looks easy to chill with it say when your led in bed or sat down or using it in collage. Ive never really liked phones for multi media because of the screen size. looks awsome though

  • it's ratarded why would u buy that rofl.

  • better question why would you not?

  • people who say that this is just an oversize ipod touch are missing the point. the ipod touch is a great device, capable of a lot more than you think. this is thanks to the amazing app that can do pretty much everything you find on a net book. (application wise) iwork-perfect for students, way better than word on a netbook. apps/games!!!!- solitaire gets boring after a while. LOL the apps are what will make the ipad a success. dont judge a book..... you know. THE APPS!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • great another fucking product which essentially does exactly what other products that already exist do, lets throw money at crap on artificial wants and needs, we are probably going to have to carry an ipod in a left pocket, iphone in our right, ipad in our hands and a macbook in our backpack

  • @ydoggbdoggbigG2 do you own an ipod touch or iphone??? if not, then what will convince me you know EXACTLY what your talking about. the fact that there are many products is just testament to the the amount of variety / choice. THATS IT.

  • NOOOO..

    We'll carry and iphone in our pocket, a ipad on the go, and a macbook for school and home....

  • Its odd that the product itself doesn't help it sell, but the add ons that other companies make

  • @spyduhmahn very true. it's a little odd but at the end of the day, one has to make the distinction between a product that (just) works or a product that is low grade.

  • mate, landscape spring board :O! i hope the new iphone update has this featured ! :P

  • Nice work!

  • look im sure there are many features they dont mention, no need to hate it so much, quite frankly, I'd like to see anyone that writes a negative thing create something better.

  • OH WAIT!!!!!!! BAD GRAMMAR

    too bad you don't have the sense to say whan an idiot not what a idiot

  • 1:49 theres assassins creed

  • wow its realy big! D: she look´s same of ipod touch.... its cool but, aim think its the same....

  • ipad app for the iphone(S)

    you just make a iphone ipad app for the iphone and then make the app connect about 9 iphones together with eachother then you put the iphones next to eachother and you got yourself an ipad

  • lol XD

  • I like it, but the Facebook app is a tad pointless. Surely the full site would be a whole lot better on the iPad.

  • i have an iphone but i didn't like the ipad at all

  • that really sucks its too big, its not gonna succeed,

  • Haha, okay buddy.

  • but if it was too small people would be moaning aswell?

  • reminds me of the scifi show stargate alantis..with the tech dude on the show controlling

    everything with a look like ipad.....getting one..

  • Getting one!

  • that was @alvinthephotographer

  • Can't wait till I get my iPad!

  • i Peace of trash

  • good thing about the ipad is that you can use it as a boomerang and flip it across the room.

  • Foolishness! Why on earth are these guys typing with their thumbs and index finger when the keyboard allows you to use all of your fingers.

  • If you'll notice, when he begins typing at around 0:50, putting the iPad down on the table, he's able to type with it just as one would with a regular physical keyboard.

  • useless

  • The ipad is not for geeks .. it's for the 99.9% rest of us who just want things that work, are elegant, well designed, and functional ... that leaves all you pc tinkerers out ... see ya ..

  • Word!

  • Haha I'm not a techie but this sure as hell looks like a giant version of my phone =D

  • Not a laptop or netbook replacement, but definitely a Kindle killer!

  • Why would you need a dedicated "Silent Flip" button on an I pad? i can understand why on a phone i use it on my I phone all the time. It's not like your gonna get somebody call you on it while watching a movie.

  • @fod3er

    the reason is same as why you have mute on your computer!

  • I big Touch with less portability. Stupid idea, I think.

  • I AGREE!!!! IM GOOD WITH MY IPHONE

  • It's funny how poor people like you can say that a multi-million dollar company made something stupid. Specially when the product they made has you writing about it online.

    How about you take all those smart ideas of "yours", and make something better. It's one thing to say, " I personally wouldn't use it". But to say something is stupid is just fucked up when you have nothing better to show.

  • Yes, you are right. Multi-million USD companies are doing only good things, having only good ideas.

  • they should have made it where you can write on it with a pencil like take notes

  • @jay733 i totally agree!

    i wanted a stylus for this to take notes with it i really would've totally loved it

  • You can buy an iPhone stylus, which I would imagine would work on an iPad.

    I would bet that someone will make a note-taking app for the iPad, one that would recognize your handwriting and turn it into typed text, if you wanted.

  • Who the hell wants to use a stylus to write on something. I'm just fine typing a note with a keyboard. Even if they did, there are more people who wouldn't need a stylus, as apposed to the few that would. I swear, people complain about the stupidest things. Just go buy some shitty product that microsoft will put out a few months after the ipad.

  • nice

  • the exact same as the ipod touch but with a bigger screen

  • its a nice concept for an apple laptop but i mean who's gonna jam to their music on it? Carrying around a fatass ipod touch might be a hassle

  • @iseeinwidescreen It's for home use really.

  • I say that anyone wanting an iPad [besides office use perhaps] should hold off the buy for a year until the next better model comes out or even two years for the "revolutionary" model haha. Just saying though that's my opinion to save some money...there's obviously going to be a better one in about a year

  • I couldn't agree with you more. This is just like when the IPhone initially came out. It was expensive and had limited apps. I waited until the 3G version came out, which was Cheaper and Better than the original. I hope that the next version of the IPad has Flash comp-ability and a camera!

  • also it needs multi-tasking. i would pick it up immediately if it had that.

  • Its getting multi-tasking in OS 4.0

  • -_- Who even said that? Apple don't want multi-tasking to Ipad/Iphone because the batterylife would be much shorter and and it wouldn't be as fast.

  • GUYS!!! Dont you ALLLL Know that WHEN the jailbreak comes out for this device, that there will be flash and mutitasking ? I have flash and i can muti task with up to 3 different apps on my Iphone 3gs! I will get one as soon as it comes out and im sure not long after there out, there will be a jailbreak for them

  • the iPad is POINTLESS!!!

  • wow typing really suks on this

  • EPIC

  • cant wait for tap tap on that!  FTW!

  • no flash, and no multi tasking still fails :(

  • Flash is a dead format. Say hello to HTML5.

  • @OhNoltsGojira. Flash is terrible, but it's not going to disappear overnight.

  • yes, but thank god its on its way out.

  • yeah, definitely. I love that I can now use YouTube without flash. Now my browser never crashes.

  • Yeah, I've been using the Safari add-on. Is there another alternative? I've been using Chrome browser on and off since it came out for Mac, and its seems to run YouTube very smoothly. Firefox is the worst.

  • yeah, there is an HTML5 beta. go to youtube(dot)com/testtube and signup for the HTML5 beta

  • Oh yeah. I remember seeing that pop up one time, but then I forgot about it. Thanks.

    If you use a Mac too, check out that Safari add-on. It blocks all flash on every website and give you the choice to load it or not. For video you also have the option to stream it as h.264 instead of flash, and download the video if you want - a good overall package! Makes browsing so easy.

  • Yep, I also have a Mac. If i'm not mistaken, I believe that with the html5 beta you also get h.264 streaming.

    Thanks for the recommendation

  • On damn that looks good! I Want One! = D

  • OMG... Eu também quero um... :)

  • meow (I want one)
