iPad is big. iPad is just a big version of the iPod touch which doesnt fit in your pocket. iPad is a ripoff. lol

I don't give a damn about the iPod, iPhone, iPad purely because I have some iNeken !
Only beer fans will get this. :joker: (Stu, Eoin, Andy, Ben and some other alcoholics like me)

It's a touch screen big ipod that can't do much and costs more than a cheap netbook. As an ipad it's unable to play yer vids and no keyboard to mail folks
BGT-FAN!

I can't see the point in an iPad. I'm happy with my 3 years old nano.

It has a phone on it though, so it's a large iPhone.

Ipads look like the slate things that the kids in 'Little house on the pairie' wrote on in school. Backwards technology!

But where is the fcking point in having a mobile phone that isn't portable?

You just need the special pockets to carry it Jayson - and too much money to buy one

Expensive toy...
Doesn't support Flash,
Over-priced,
Too big to carry around,
Screen unprotected and probably easily damaged,
No proper keyboard, and difficult to enter any length of text.
Can only run Apple approved apps,
No USB port.

Those things make me not wanna get it. =/ I want a touchscreen laptop. :DSuppose they would be good for long journeys on the train/plane.
The adverts where stupid. As if anyone would use such a big, expensive thing in a minging train with tramps and chavs in it. :laugh:

I can't believe how popular it is. It's basically an iPod Touch for giants. I think you'd be better off spending £500 on a netbook really.

For what it can do you would be better off buying on a netbook, a decent mobile phone then have a magic all weekend bender and still have change from 500 notes.

i don't understand the point of it? is it literally a giant iphone/touch?
Can it use word documents and can you install things like it was a mac laptop?
I've seen loads of adverts for it but they dont really say what it is, am i supposed to know by now?

In order to practice taking pictures from the ipad version 2
go around your house with a dinner plate shouting click, click, click
The iPad is for stupid people or people just wanting to show off imo.
Netbook = cheaper, easier, more convenient, does more, higher specs.

If you pay for the Times online
then this Slab is worth having as you can turn each page.
But because you can only do one thing at a time
it is a Early version with many Flaws
like Stephen Fry
eg
Celebs can afford to be frivolous.
