The iPad. Who names these things?

The iPad. Who names these things?

Short answer: Yes. I’m going to get one.

Why? Well, for me, two main reasons.

One, I currently use my iPhone to browse the net in the evening and its tiny screen is a bit of a bummer at times. I have my beloved ThinkPad T400 but it is a bit too heavy to just have sitting on my lap to surf the net and its form factor doesn’t lend itself to reading.

Two, I use my iPhone for watching movies while I work out and it’s small screen is annoying for that. I don’t use the laptop because, again, the form factor doesn’t let me easily put it up on things.

I kind of feel bad for people who bought the Kindle. This thing will kill that.

I am quite bummed it doesn’t have a camera. I could imagine this thing being super useful for Skype video chatting but oh well.

the cult of apple is the cult of madness.

way overpriced hardware that does what everyone has already been doing for years. Also, apple doesn't sell products, they sell a lifestyle.

Quoting TheDarkKnight2008, reply 49As this topic shows, people like to make jokes about the iTampon more then use it.

Yea, I kind of wonder how many sales they are actually getting beyond the "I'll buy anything with an i in front of it" crowd.
