You guys check out the unveiling? What did you think of it? They think it might revitalized the failing publishing/newspaper/magazine business.

I've seen pictures of it, they think it will bridge the gap between Iphone and laptop, we shall see.

It is going to be popular to bash it on the various blogs.

I am going to avoid that temptation.

I think it looks unwieldy.

Don't worry I won't post in any fucking useless thread you start ever again.

I don't see how this will do a damn thing for the publishing industry. We've already got several e-readers out there, Kindle being one of them which can also be read on an iphone that allows you to subscribe to newspapers, magazines and blogs. As far as this goes for movie/TV viewing, the size is wrong and it ends up using less area of the monitor for widescreen AND they're too small to hold more than a few movies at a time, if that. It's a great idea for a portable laptop though... however I wonder how fragile they are.

I think its format is more user friendly for tv and books. For example, you can rotate the thing to any side you want and it will adjust to display stuff correctly. It also only has one button from what I understand.

My Kindle and iphone can do the same thing. And I have a 64GB ipod touch that I can watch an entire TV series on if I want.

I like gadgets as much as the next person, but this doesn't seem like what I'm looking for. Maybe third gen will have the bugs worked out.

Yeah but it would be terribly annoying to watch a movie or read a book on an iphone due to its size.

Plus, I believe there are other features that make the IPAD more customized for tv, books, etc. I have to learn more to comment more, though.

Interesting how that has never stopped you from posting your opinions before.

Seriously...It seems like an over grown iPhone.

Fuck.that.shit.

At least they had the good sense to price it within reach for most people. Usually with new things they price it sky muthafuckin' high to give it an air of exclusivitiy.

I feel very uncomfortable and mildly nauseated that this thread has started discussing Frank's penis and D's spooge.

You CAN put Linux on it. But I think its a piece of garbage, so why would I get excited over it. Sorry to burst your illusions.

Agreed. If we're gonna having anything with my spooge, it better be in a woman's pussy dammit.
