iPad......
 

Today was the first I've heard of this... at first i was like uhhh.. :wtf:.. but, wow. BRILLIANT! really. I mean, im sure people are gonna jump on here apple this apple that boo hoo, but im not even excited because this is an apple product, i think its fantastic. everything my iphone can do just got a whole lot bigger, without the need to carry around a laptop. i like the idea that its like holding a book, sort of like those electronic book readers, but to a whole new dimension

Pretty cool, but apple is ghey.

Wonder how long it will take MS to play catchup.

Looks pretty sweet, but the name just isn't sitting well with me.

LT1low: first MS has to figure out how to make software that won't crash and isn't riddled with security issues...... then they can focus on proprietary computers, fix the zune and then think about maybe one day trying to make their own tablet.

At first I thought this was in reference to a woman's product.

yeah i was checkin it out. sure looks awesome but estimated msrp of $600 with contract and $1000 without, apple can suck it.

where do you see that? I see no mention of contracts on the pricing page at all.

16 GB 32 GB 64 GB
Wi-Fi $499 $599 $699
3G $629 $729 $829

Wow, Apple reinvented the tablet :rollseye:

pretty neat but i don't see anything different in the iPad, than what my iPhone can do, except a larger size. Still made of glass(!), wonder if they won't cover it like iPhones or iPod touch.

Pffft. Giant phones are so 1981

Giant remotes are so 1995

sorry, it was just interwebz speculations

o i c .. i guess they were wrong.. do u still want apple to suck it? :lol:

Does not support Flash or Java.

um......

yes! :rofl:


its definitely pretty trick though

Yes?

I knew about the tablet but I was actually hoping this was something apple was developing along the lines of home systems. I know a lot of people can already control most of the lights/security/heat etc at home through the iphone wherever they are.

how do you do that?

iPad? really? Sounds like something my gf would use about once a month...

I was hoping for a new MBP or something. I mean with a better proc and all.

they said that all apps from the iphone will work on it anyhow

.. there's an app for that...

There's an app for everything. Except for playing a .swf or .flv, apparently. Which means no youtube or anything of that nature.

wait... my itouch does youtube, but ipad won't? I'm confused.

I misspoke. The iPad probably has some other type of Youtube support (like the iPhone) but doesn't have Flash, or a mention of it at this time.

apologize for nothing

iPad 3G models are unlocked, there's no contract, and you pay $30 a month for unlimited data. Don't fall for the $15 250MB deal: if you're interested in this gadget, you'll use more. AT&T users get free use at their hotspots.

So let's say I had an Iphone and the phone 29.99 unlimted data plan it requires, and If I got an Ipad ( :lol: ) I would have to pay another 30? :lol:

yes. that's like asking if you bought a 2nd phone on the same carrier would you have to pay for a second line?
