okay yeah ill wait for the ms courier tyvm
[QUOTE=Shugo;19882065]It looks pretty fucking spiffy, but I think I'm going to wait until it doesn't cost all my limbs to buy, especially the 3G version. The AT&T non-contract deal is pretty nice. What I like is how it's about the size of a thin book, so I can just slip it in my book bag when I go to classes and use it to take notes with the touch keyboard. The advantage over a laptop is that it doesn't need to prop up a screen to type, so it isn't a distraction and it's much more discreet. Looks handy.[/QUOTE] So, your going to lay it flat on your desk and try to type with the on-screen keyboard?

They've made a pun on themselves? Uh, really smart I guess. It sounds like that stupid "Woll Smoth" thing but with iPods.

[QUOTE=PartyPancake;19883613]They failed to mention that it doesn't revolutionize anything in any way whatsoever.[/QUOTE]Oh really? With a bigger screen, the device's poorly optimized rechargeable battery will only last half as long as the iPod Touch's!
[QUOTE=KrAzY_nikomo;19882129]Introducing the iPhone 3x, it's 3 times bigger, still doesn't have an SD-clot to expand memory, can't do phone calls, runs a shitty 1GHz Apple-made CPU, runs a cellphone OS... And it's 800$[/QUOTE] How do you know it's shitty? :smile: An unlocked Nexus One is $500. The iPad 16GB is $500.
[QUOTE=Alex_DeLarge;19882480]Yeah uh, I'll go with my Alienware m11x netbook ([b]which is 150$ cheaper than the most expensive iPad[/b]) [img]http://venturebeat.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/alienware-m11x.jpg[/img][/QUOTE] I'm planning to get this for my birthday next month. I'm sorry, but the iPad is just a really big iPod Touch, and it can't even support god damn flash. Also: [url]http://i.gizmodo.com/5458382/8-things-that-suck-about-the-ipad?skyline=true&s=i[/url]
Imagine trying to get that into your pocket

[QUOTE=Mattz333;19884961]Imagine trying to get that into your pocket[/QUOTE] It's not meant for your pocket. [editline]05:48PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Tanner;19885032]A sanitary pad isn't a tampon. Your jokes are no good here Mr. Vos.[/QUOTE] Everyone else thought it was funny.
[QUOTE=Mattz333;19884961]Imagine trying to get that into your pocket[/QUOTE] Is that an iPad in your pocket or are you happy you didn't spend 500 $ on that ?
Is there any actual difference between this and an ipod touch other than the size?
The sad thing is, no matter how crap this iPad actually is, mactards will STILL buy it in droves. And then rub it in to the face of other people because they can't afford the latest shiny piece of shit that Apple has churned out.

Inflated itouch, nothing new.
Really? $15 for 250 MBs per MONTH? I can fill up a TB with downloads in one month. Overpriced piece of shit. shitPad
[QUOTE=Applecrap;19885582]Really? $15 for 250 MBs per MONTH? I can fill up a TB with downloads in one month. Overpriced piece of shit. shitPad[/QUOTE] Yeah...and they offer "unlimited" for $30 a month. Not everyone downloads a TB every month buddy.
There's a great thing called Wifi thats built into the iPad. You don't need the 3G plan unless if you're a douche.
this is just basically a larger iphone with its own internet bill and a few extra apps. Nothing revolutionary in the world of software.
the ipad is just an iphone for simpletons [editline]12:00AM[/editline] *walks down main street clutchin' bigass iphone* WOOHOO LIVIN THE DREAM FOLKS!!!
[QUOTE=That 0ther Guy;19880192]Rednecks are more aye-pawd than ipad[/QUOTE] oh there not [B]that[/B] bad. i go to a redneck school they aint as bad as everyone thinks. well kinda.
No thanks, I prefer functionality over "OMG IT SHINES". My netbook is serving me fine.
You guys are insane. The tablet market has been suffering so much, and with the introduction of ths ipad there is going to be such a boost in interest that other companies will be introducing much better and more functional tablets in the future, if Apple hadn't introduced something like this the market might well have been stagnant for a few more years. You should be thanking them. I'm not even an apple fanboy, I would never buy a mac, but this tablet looks incredible, and is reasonably priced for a 10 inch multitouch factor.
I think it's shit, but I also know that Steve Jobs has been all excited about it, and he's not a guy to underestimate. If it's a failure, I'd expect that he could put together a 2nd-gen version that fixes everything that sucks about this one.
