The Apple iPad

A question about : The Apple iPad

Who wants one?

Best answers:

• Sounds like a digital version of something ladies use every month.
  Marketing FAIL. Do not want.
• Basically an iPhone/iPod that won't fit in your pocket. I have a laptop that doesn't fit in my pocket that has a decent operating system that isn't made by Apple and it does everything I want so I think I shall give the digital tampax a miss.
• They had a smaller version for children but the name iTouch Kids was considered inappropriate!!
• Ive been using tablets for years now so the whole concept is just a bit meh personally.
  Maybe the second or third gen one if the price isn't too silly.
• By the looks the price is gonna be around the $/Ј899 mark.
  I've not seen any official announcement of the price yet.
  But all estimates have been between 699 and 1299!!
• Christ. All this hype for that. Looks like a Ј15 digital photo frame.
  Edit - first picture makes Steve Jobs look like a midget holding an iphone
• Some nice press here:

  Also: $130 extra for a $5 3G chip? Apple really are a bunch of money-grabbing tossers.
• I have to say after all the hype I'm disappointed in how it looks, That black bezel is huge.
• wheres the keyboard?
  And how do you make it stand up on your lap?
