Sebastian Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 http://www.apple.com/ipad/ The new Apple Ipad. It's a computer without a keyboard, usb ports, or an sd slot. It's a glorified Iphone except it can't make calls or texts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TiLLooR Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 I saw it, didnt really like it. One of my friends linked the new Microsoft Courier, that looks cool and much better than the Ipad. It seems to be something for apple fan boys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoop Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 404 error multitasking not found. apples idea of competition is making a fancy product for 2 times the price of other netbooks. poop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulldog_916 Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 I wasnt impressed either. I think more people are going to have problems with the touch screen than have on Iphones or other touch screen phones. Most people, when they type, have to place the back part of their palms somewhere to facilitate proper form. There's basically no where to rest your palms when you type. It looks like it would be awkward hunching over the screen while you're on the park bench. Imagine having to hold it the whole time you're on the air plane or trying to find a place to balance it. Having to buy an accessory to keep it standing...eh. I'm just not a fan at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hassouni Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 As much as I like my Macbook Pro and iPhone, this is without a doubt the stupidest product ever made. There is NO market for a product between my phone and my computer. I hope they sell poorly and Apple learns a lesson. If a company can jump the shark the way a TV show can, then this is it.

Jeff_T Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 I'm a fan of my Macbook Pro and the iPod, but I'm not impressed with the iPad at all. I did see a funny video posted on Crackberry.com, [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ht5a-Jtai0w"]Hitler's reaction to iPad[/url] and thought I'd share. It's longer than it needs to be, but conveys the feeling/sentiment that I've seen about the iPad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chreees Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Yeah, I pretty much agree... I don't see iPad going anywhere really... My new Macbook is portable enough, and I love my iPod... So I won't ever be getting the iPad... You fail, Apple. Oh, and Jeff, I love the "Hitler reacts to..." vids. I've seen it reworded for PS3, Xbox, and Nintendo... lol.

Click Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 dumb dumb dumb. it doesn't do anything good. Isn't going to be good as the kindle or other e-readers as their screens are make specifically to look like your reading a paper book so it doesn't stress your eyes. No HDMI out. No multitasking (guarantee that this product will fail), no camera, no flash support.

KyleTheJustin Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 I think it's awesome. I don't have an iPhone, so this may be a contributing reason behind my decision. It's sleek and from what little I've heard of about it, it's fast as fuck. If it was given as a gift, I'd put that fucker to use hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Travis Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 I seriously loled when he said "HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO PLAY BLOONS?" I was skeptical about buying my mac book for music class. and i ended up loving it. Hopefully (doubtfully) this will be the same. Everything gets better with time, so lets hope the gens to come will improve greatly. Im not gonna bother buying it anyways because apple puts out new gen models about twice a year.

Jeff_T Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Those "Hitler reacts to..." vids are pretty funny. I had seen one before this one that was also very funny. Interesting coincidence, I had no idea what movie this was from and happened to just get "Downfall" on netflix yesterday and that is the move this scene is from. I know it's OT, but the movie was actually pretty good and interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle, the reason it's fast is b/c it can only do ONE THING AT A TIME even my computer i ran windows 3.1 on was fast as fuck as long as it was just doing one thing. So that's not really impressive. Not knocking you, if you want to use it, be my guest, but don't be fooled. It's the same reason the iphone is "fast" With smart phones multitasking now a days if I got anything close to a tablet it better have more capabilities than my phone...this one doesn't.....fail.

Also to keep it so that any and all apps come form its store. Edited January 31, 2010 by indian_villager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
