[QUOTE=Zeraux;21119267]Why would you even buy an iPad[/QUOTE]
to show off to people that you have money to burn on asinine apple products
How deliciously unsurprising.
Yes, BUT luckily the pad won't be supporting that poorly coded flash bull shit.
I hear those crafty shits can make flash apps that LOOK like $50 apps, but are really free to make, download, and use.
You really gotta watch out these days.
Give it a month before the iPads jailbroken.
So the supersized iPhone comes with supersized prices for the programs.
What a piece of shit. Yet the lemmings will still flock to it with their wallets open like they do for every overhyped Apple iProduct.
What about that application that costs $900
Ipad: Digging it's own grave all the way to china.
[QUOTE=gman003-main;21118694]Remember, when the iPhone first got apps, they cost quite a bit more than they currently do. The free market will take over, again, and lower prices to reasonable levels.[/QUOTE]
But it's not a free market, it's controlled by Apple.

The hardware definitely has some potential without Apple restricting what you can do on it. A jailbroken ipad, dare I say, may actually be worth the cost.

The jailbreak is all software based, and is as simple to use as blackra1n. It is completely untethered, works on all current tethered models(ipt2, 3gs, ipt3), and [b]will probably work on iPad too.[/b]
If this works the ipad will have been jailbroken -9 days after release.
meh people will still buy it, thats the sad thing.
[QUOTE=Zeke129;21118519]that's the one that enables the functionality of the on button[/QUOTE]
Actually that's the one that blocks google ads.
Apple doesn't set the app price, the developer of the application does. It's the devs trying to make "HD" versions to try to get more money. Also, you can still download the normal ones for the iPhone/iPod Touch, for the same lower price, although I'm guessing the "HD" ones have more features.

[QUOTE=Acesarge;21119551]Because it's shiny, DUH. Every body knows that to Apple fans shiny=fast. Besides, Apple users are used to over paying for everything so I doubt they will care.[/QUOTE]
What? The thing is fast. It's [i]very[/i] fast.

Most things tend to be fast when they only do one thing.

And when iPhoneOS 4 comes out with multitasking, it will continue to be fast. Just a question though, what exactly are you going to do with multitasking, besides streaming music on Pandora in the background? It's not like it's two apps cut in half and displayed on the screen, it's still the entire screen filled with one app. And you can already have music in the background, just get songs you like and sync them. It's pretty simple..?

They will probably remove the screen because it cuts down battery life.

I jailbroke my stone, and it had flash installed auto-magically!

Saying something will be good in future doesn't automatically justify it being shit now.
[QUOTE=Sharker;21120583]What about that application that costs $900[/QUOTE]
I saw that too, isn't there like 35 reviews... Who buys that?!

It doesn't even mean it's going to be any better, either.
It's called jailbreaking and letting the user create their own apps for it.
(No WAREZ here)
:smug:
[B]AHAHAHAHA!
[/B]caps
ipad sucks no flash files no usb no camera
[B][I]Apple.[/I][/B]
It doesn't matter because Apple is hip and cool! :downs:
The only app i would get for a ipad is a vnc client and i am happy with that being expensive. also the added art and res in games would be good grounds for more expensive apps
Don't worry, there are still very good free apps!

I could see getting an iPad if It was like a professional art tablet and let you import to the PC on the fly... But it isn't, and it's cheaper to get an actual art pad
