Just like Apple to bait you with the left jab of the iPad release and then floor you with a surprise right hook. On Monday, Apple announced that it would hold a special invitation-only event to “peek into the future of iPhone OS” on April 8.

looks like ipad launched way too early huh? apple forums are full of complaints and issues... wifi, apps crashing, overheating, usb charging, etc etc etc etc

No way, you mean Apple didn't put out a perfect product? hmmmm

And the actual number was 300,000.

So much for your feigned surprise. :rolleyes:

Anyone looking forward to the HP Slate?

That was 300,000 for the day not the weekend. Point is
your numbers were off as well......:rolleyes:

At any rate me and the grandkids did a hands on at the Apple
store yesterday. They thought it was very cool. But like
I have already said, I have no need for it so I'm not buying.

WIll anyone who actually bought one of these tell me what they primarily use it for? It doesn't really replace anything that I can see and it doesn't really do that much well. It isn't the best digital bookreader, it can't multitask, the browser is questionable, the touch screen keybourd isn't better or faster than an actual keybord, the apps (that were designed for the iphone) don't seem to translate that great on the larger ipad screen, it is still bulky to the point where it can't fit in your pocket, etc. I still don't get the need for it other than Apple seems to be the cool gadget and many people like to have the newest thing on the market.
