Default What is iPad
-in the style of the advert-

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. (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

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

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

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.

The adverts where stupid. As if anyone would use such a big, expensive thing in a minging train with tramps and chavs in it.
