Apple iPad Unveiled by Steve Jobs! [iPad Touch Tablet] Is it worth it?

The Apple iPad.

Is the iPad worth buying? Comment stating your opinion!

Apple CEO Steve Jobs debuts the much-anticipated Apple tablet.

Jobs shows the in's and out's of the new "iPad",
starting at $499.

-------iPad Specs-------
Display: 9.7 inch IPS

Size and Weight: 9.56 by 7.47 by 0.5 inches, and 1.5 to 1.6 pounds

Processor: 1GHz Apple A4 Chip

Storage: 16, 32, or 64GB flash

Battery life: 10 hours battery life, over 1 month standby

Connectivity: 802.11n Wi-Fi, 3G, Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR

Other Features: Accelerometer, compass, speaker, mic, 30-pin connector

Price: "Starts at $499"

That's a fairly low price, but that only gets you the 16GB model with no 3G. Adding 3G to any model costs $130 more, and each tier of storage is $100 more. So that's $599 for the 32GB model without 3G, and $829 for the whole enchilada - 64GB and 3G.

GOD!!!! Look at my convertible touchscreen netbook Gigabyte T1028G!

I bought it 1 year (!!!!) ago, for about 500 dollars and it offers all that things the iShit does not. USB, camera, 160GB harddrive, 3G (optional), flash ;).. Beside, of course it's a tablet with Touchscreen!

ipad = ipod touch just BIGGER NOT WORTH 500-700£ APPLE HAVE MADE IT WORSE

[roolahh]

ipad = oversized itouch.

The biggest let down is that it is not small and mobile so it's not for use everywhere all the time and at the same time you can't use it for a home media device. It really is a BIG Ipod touch and nothing else. Yes you get the screen that's cool but that's it. And it's not cheap either.

"And what this device does is extraordinary, you can browse the web with it. It is the best browsing experience you've ever had, it's phenomenal to see a whole web page right in front of you, and you can manipulate with your fingers." Oh wow, Steve, that's so amazing! I've never browsed the web before on a full page!! To think now I can just touch a screen with greasy hands and makes websites do things! AMAZING! That so beats the precision of a mouse! Why buy an iTouch, when I can get this?? WIN
