[QUOTE=Dr Magnusson;20303099]Imagine if car manufacturers starting putting V2s in all cars, with the explanation "If we put more power in them they won't go as far!"[/QUOTE] That would suck ass.
Or maybe because flash is acutally unoptimized and utterly a cluttered mess right now and adobe won't clean up
Can't we just forget this already?
[QUOTE=CubeManv2;20303231]Or maybe because flash is acutally unoptimized and utterly a cluttered mess right now and adobe won't clean up[/QUOTE] My phone is over 3 years old and it supports flash, why can't a new iPad then?

[QUOTE=ifaux;20299425]It hasn't stopped tons of people from buying iPod Touches and iPhones. What do you think makes this any different? Non-techy people won't care. The "i" in my name doesn't mean I'm in love with every one of their products.[/QUOTE] No. Not really. Maybe you aren't getting this. The iPhone and iPod Touches are all meant to be more portable entertainment. They aren't substitutes for a [b]fucking laptop[/b]. That's why non-techy people will care. Flash support is on every laptop ever, and is almost required due to the fact that Flash is the widest used internet interface. The lack of flash hurts the fuck out of a supposed [/b]laptop replacement[/b]. If it's going to be marketed as the new laptop to get, it better have some of those functions. [editline]03:02PM[/editline] [QUOTE=CubeManv2;20303231]Or maybe because flash is acutally unoptimized and utterly a cluttered mess right now and adobe won't clean up[/QUOTE] Hardly. Flash is fairly clean, and with the new Flash 10 on the way as some sort of universal platform working across EVERYTHING but the Apple iPad and iPhones. Adobe's happy to support everyone, and have tried with Apple, but Apple and Steve Jobs don't want flash because it will save customers money by allowing them to avoid Aps.
The app store only has a few decent apps, i don't care that when you shake the screen the AK fires goddammit.
It would be cool to have a touch device and playing flash on it while in bed.
[QUOTE=Overpowered;20295362]It looks like the battery life would drain as quick as a flash.[/QUOTE] :suicide: why not get a netbook with 10 hours of battery life including flash...
Makes it sound like the second Flash is loaded you started an timer you can't stop. Stop using the Flash app? Noooo too late now. Should have though of that before. Seriously I can make an iPad last less playing an intensive game. Jobs is a moron.
I hate Apple so much. Except for iPods/iPhone though, those are good.
and it'll last 2 hours without flash i'm guessing?
[QUOTE=KingKombat;20313120]and it'll last 2 hours without flash i'm guessing?[/QUOTE] no 10. bad joke.
No thanks jobs, i'll wait for the slate/courier. Best use of iPad: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y8KqD2JlzIA[/media]
HTML 5 is right around the corner. Who the fuck cares?
If Jobs says so, it must be true :downs:
I hate Apple really. Macs: Shit but still bearable. iPods: Great though I'm not too crazy about the Touch. iPhones: Over hyped crap. Get an Android phone. iPads: You fucking kidding me? No thanks I'd rather stick to my iPod Touch Nano.
To be honest I don't see what's so amazing about Apple products. Macs: Overpriced underpowered shitty computers iPad: Nice Gimmick iPods: They're ok but the control scheme is not to my liking iTouch: It's fine but still you could do so much more iPhone: Like holding a brick to your ear
[quote=http://www.fudzilla.com/content/view/17667/1/]Adam Tablet will be one of the first devices due out with a Pixel Qi display and NVIDIA Tegra 2 chipset. The specs, which were posted on the outfit's website show it has a 10.1 inch, 1024 x 600 pixel matte (non-glossy) touchscreen which can function as a full color display or as a high contrast (almost black and white), low power display that’s easily readable in direct sunlight. It is based around a Tegra 2 chipset which combines a low power dual-core ARM A9 CPU with enough graphics power to play 1080p HD video. The tablet has a 3 cell battery, which should run for up to 16 hours in full color mode. Technoholik claims you’ll get up to 160 hours with the backlight off. The Adam tablet supports 802.11b/g WiFi, Bluetooth, 2.1 and 3G wireless. And it has a 3.2MP camera that you can rotate so it faces the front or back of the tablet, allowing you to snap pictures or use the tablet as a webcam. There are 3 USB ports, an HDMI output, A-GPS, and an accelerometer. It will weigh about 1.4 pounds and measure just about half an inch thick.[/quote]

They're incredibly easy and fun to use.[/B] iPods: Great though I'm not too crazy about the Touch. [B]Without the iPod, you wouldn't have any decent MP3 players today. And the Touch is a pocket computer/boredom killer.[/B] iPhones: Over hyped crap. Get an Android phone. [B]My friend has a Motorola Droid and well... it's crap. He's always whining about how terrible it is. Besides, again, without an iPhone you wouldn't have any android phones[/B] iPads: You fucking kidding me? No thanks I'd rather stick to my iPod Touch Nano. [B]Yeah, they are kinda gimmicky. But like with the Mac, it's easy to use and more powerful than an iPod Touch.[/B][/QUOTE] I know I'm going to get dumbs for this but christ people just because it isn't a Windows-based computer or a Zune doesn't mean it's fucking terrible
[QUOTE=Protocol7;20338970]I know I'm going to get dumbs for this but christ people just because it isn't a Windows-based computer or a Zune doesn't mean it's fucking terrible[/QUOTE] The only Apple product I like are the iPods and iPod Touch. I've used a Macbook and yes, i fucking hate it. It's "simplicity" comes at the cost of user interface. It won't let you do anything it doesn't want you to do, sorry, I'm not 5, I'd like to have full control of my computer. Also, why you think Hating Apple = Loving Microsoft is beyond me. I hate Apple on the basis of, they treat everyone like kids, act like they did something impressive with their shitty computers, and over price EVERYTHING. I dislike some of Microsofts shit, but I'd take it over Apple.
My friend wants one of these useless peices of shit. He wants to use it for school too. His only reason for wanting one is "Its cool." :eng99:
[QUOTE=GhostSonic;20296013]I like how he keeps making up all this shit in an attempt to make people stop bashing the product. You can tell that he's actually a bit worried about this thing.[/QUOTE] He clearly has worked out that a lot of the public have realised that it's overpriced flashy crap.
If you buy iPad you're either rich or dumb. Why would someone need an expensive toy like that?
does anyone really care about this fucking thing? its fucking dumb.

[QUOTE=teeheeV2;20341095]How does this work?[/QUOTE] Each "game" that you pay 99c for could be 0c if you just go to a flash games website.
