    How do you even hold the thing? Don't your hands get tired? Where do you put it when you're not using it? Doesn't fit in your pocket I wouldn't think.

    I think most of us are used to capitalism by now, something like this isn't surprising or frustrating.

    What truly is alienating about Apple's customer is that they are super casual, yet, pretend to be known-it-all just because they paid for something that -look- superior. I don't look down on them for following trend when they have the money, I look down on them for following trend thinking they scored the best deal.

    lol @ anyone who thinks we're jealous of that thing. Couldn't get me to use one if you gave it to me for free (I'd sell it to some dumb fuck willing to pay for it)

    Not true. A streamlined device with a lower clock speed will often beat a higher end device with a faster clock speed. More hertz doesnt mean better performance. You don't get cockblocked on performance by processor speed, you get cockblocked by data transfer.

    IBM's PowerPC often outperformed it's Intel counterparts when it had a lower clock speed because of how its architecture handled data.


    That said, I still think this a poor buy in some areas, however, I would enjoy having the device for long trips where a laptop is inconvenient on planes/cars/buses etc, considering it boasts a better battery life than my MBP, and doesn't weigh as much.

    Know why it's so fast? BECAUSE YOU CAN'T MULTI-TASK. Comparable netbooks/laptops would be as fast/faster if you restricted them to only doing one thing at a time. But you don't, because you're not retarded.

    They just don't get it...lol.

    Again, stop comparing it to your piece of crap laptop.

    @Star Trek watching person:

    Where did you watch Star Trek/youtube? Do you seriously sit at home and hold the thing or stand it up against something? You don't have a freaking TV or large computer monitor to do these things (and do them much better)?

    Guess I'm the only one who would rather sit back and watch the movie comfortably and with a much larger screen...lol.

    So has anybody, aside An Hero, bought it and actually found it innovative? An Hero's opinion doesnt count since he was earlier gloating about how he doesnt care about money, yet comparing it to his complete PoS laptop

    Acutally it was me who first mentioned that its faster/at par with certain laptops because unlike a regular computer, its designed for specific applications. I just don't like capitalizing words randomly.

    Its quite pathetic how people smash 500$ gadgets like ps3 and this one so that their shitty blog that nobody reads can get a hundred hits. Its more pathetic to see people that actually lick their ass and glorify the shit they did. You could probably attract the same attention by sticking a 2 liter coke bottle up into your asshole in the middle of Times Square.

    Honestly, the reason I posted those pictures in the original post was to provoke idiots into thread-shitting so that I, as a non-iPad user can sit down and laugh.

    Every single apple thread turns into a shitfest with crapton of lemmings trying to let everyone know that they didn't buy the product. "Oh hey, I'm looking down upon hundreds of millions of people currently jogging outside with their iPod now. Nobody reads my shitty blog, so here I'm posting it on Blue Garter linkgroup, spread the word!"
