Someone left their facebook logged in on one in Best Buy. I was nice and just wrote "I probably should remember to log myself out of facebook in public places" as her status. But I did leave it logged in. 4/10/2010 8:58:56 PM |

I see all these reviews praising this thing and talking about how awesome it is, which I'm sure it's quite cool.
But I never see a review telling me why it's better than a similarly priced netbook or windows tablet that can be used for all the same things and has much more functionality. 4/10/2010 9:24:18 PM |

APPLE FORCED ME TO PURCHASE MY IPAD LAST SATURDAY.
APPLE DID NOT ALLOW ME TO EVALUATE MY FINANCIAL SITUATION NOR THE PERCEIVED UTILITY GAINED FROM THE PURCHASE.

I, personally, had some good reasons to purchase my iPad, and I use it daily at work. I found it to be a tool that fits my needs, and I like using it. I don't consider it to be an idiotic purchase, but to each his own. 4/10/2010 10:35:30 PM |

totally depends on your lifestyle, devices you already have, and what you are looking for in a "tablet" like device. I can certainly see some people finding use for it while I myself have had trouble thinking of anything I would use it for that I can't already do. Just personal preferences. 4/10/2010 10:59:58 PM |

Actually the bf pre-ordered the iPad 3G which he will use to replace his work laptop as it's easier to show clients specs and charts, etc. Also because at the end of the day he can sync all his files wirelessly to the iMAC he has. Apple wins.

^^^^so let me get this straight. Your bf thinks that it is easier to show a client specs and charts on a screen just because there is no keyboard attached to it? I just pulled a chart up on my laptop and spun it around and showed it to someone.
I'm not following.
Now if you bf wants his clients to think he is more baller b/c he is showing them specs or charts on this cool new ipad thing, then yeah.

It's lighter, compact (his work one is chunky annoying), and yeah pretty baller to show off to potential clients. Also with 3G he will have internet access anywhere whereas his laptop is wifi only. 4/10/2010 11:33:11 PM |
BigEgo Not suspended 24374 Posts user info edit post |
considering he could do the same thing with say... a hp slate or whatever the fuck it was called and windows 7, apple does not win
^his laptop isn't wifi only if he gets a little usb adapter and a data plan for it] 4/10/2010 11:33:30 PM |

Apple wins with the syncing bit, and he's an apple whore.
Nah, 3G ties right into our phone for $15 more a month. It's simply simple.

what's that webhost that syncs your files with your home computer and you can access it from anywhere? dropbox or something like that? they win.
you can tether, perhaps against your contract, using your phone and that laptop too. also pretty simple] 4/10/2010 11:35:17 PM |

3g access is spotty on At&T's network if you haven't been paying attention to verizon's commercials. So if there is no 3g coverage, will it revert to whatever the iphone uses to pick up internet or will it not have internet at all?

yeah for a price $200-300 higher than a lot of laptops these days, it BETTER come equipped with a whole lot of things....
