It's also fairly obvious a large chunk of iPad haters have never used an iPad before. It really isn't bad (But then again mine was free so I can't bitch. :v:)[/QUOTE]
I got one for free and I think it's stupid.

then you're a spoiled asshole with high expectations
Oh fuck gummy called me a fanboy fuck im crying oh god what am i going to do
i dont want someone online thinking im a fanboy
I haven't owned a single Apple product but hands down, the PC fanbase is the most childish and annoying one. To be all honest, the only so called "fanboys" I have noticed are from the PC side.

he hasn't said anywhere about him being superior because of his gold member. you're just implying you think all gold members think they're more important and whatnot because of their status.
jealous of the membership?

Granted that doesn't mean every PC user is childish and annoying, and vice versa.

I don't see why people care so much about the products. I'm getting an iPhone 4 the second it gets here.

The majority of PC users of this forum certainly is. Just look at all the Mac vs PC and similiar threads.

It seems very fitting.

WINDOWS FTW!!
Shut up with these 'wars' and fanboyism[/QUOTE]
Ah yes because you hate apple fanboys for being so smug, then say 'Windows FTW' which strikes me as rather smug and then say 'stop this fanboyism'
I believe you are contributing to the wars and fanboyism.
If you just said nothing about which side your on, [i]then[/i] the wars will end.
[QUOTE=Eudoxia;22585836]No we just hate computer illiterate people who think they know shit.[/QUOTE]
And this applies solely to ipad owners how? One of my uni mates has an ipad and he sure as shit isn't computer illiterate, Garry has one as well and he isn't computer illiterate as well.

Lets not dicuss which device is the superior?
[QUOTE=Gummylamb;22585558]Holy fucking shit, something useless? Get over yourself, fanboy. The Ipad is as useful as the Touch, just because it doesn't support everything you nerds want doesn't mean it's a shit product. It does what people want it to do, and that's all they fucking need. Bandwagon more, they definitely don't deserve to have their personal email addresses leaked out to the world because they bought something your inferior brain doesn't like.[/QUOTE]
Actually iPads won't be able to access anything porn related since Jobs wants a "freedom from porn" on anything Apple related. So no it does not do what everyone wants it to do.

2 weeks of battery life is expected, considering all the thing can do it browse the web and read books while displaying the highest amount of colors I've ever heard, 16 shades of gray. Honestly, the iPad isn't mainly used for books. Instant start isn't expected on [i]any[/i] tablet besides a simple one, such as a Kindle? Matte screen, not expected either. A Kindle is under $250 because you can't do very much on it. The rest just isn't debatable. If you're going to by an iPad specifically for iBooks, then we'll start discussing IQs..

That's from the App Store. Browse porn all you want in the browser?

Well, at least it makes a nice paperweight.
Glossy screens fucking SUCK. Why are they still being used on portable devices? At bright day it reflects more than it shows.
Saying that iPad is stupid and useless is completely bonkers - I could refer to a post by a FPer who explained how he pretty much needs exactly that.
No. But what is actually stupid is that most people will buy it as a novelty item, thanks to Apple's advertising which, and I'm sure we can all agree on this, can sometimes get a bit aggressive.
Also, some ooooold copypasta (original author unknown)
It's big enough to enjoy content on it.
It's small enough to take with you.
It's simple enough not to scare you with jargon.
It's pretty enough to not make you feel like a nerd pulling out a tablet.
It's simple enough that most people can use it.
It's fast enough to not annoy you.
It's functional enough to allow you to do what you usually do (email, browse, listen, chat)
It's versatile enough to keep it exciting (Apps)
It's slow enough to provide good battery life.
It's clear enough to read stuff on.
It's cheap enough to not break the bank.
It's expensive enough to cover the cost of decent parts.
Ha.
I think that can sum up the whole thread.

[QUOTE=Protocol7;22591910]However, this iPad was free. I know very well how an iPad works, and compared to my iPod, it is significantly more comfortable to use and a lot more powerful.

Yeah but for the price you could get an amazing laptop that is WAY more powerful. It's just buying the brand-name.
This is why I don't buy apple products. They are too overpriced. Plus theres another ipad in existence, its called the ipod touch. I don't know what people see in the ipad. All I see is a touch that was stuffed with unnecessary crap.
I wonder how many people googled "Goatse" to try and learn more about it :v:
