I agree. The person who named the iPad is an iDiot. How long do they think they can milk this iAnything naming thing?

Nice...

I may be slow, but what can this device do that a mini-notebook (costing 2-3 times less) not do? Just because it is all touchscreen? I guess I am confused as well as some others as to its main purpose. Seems like an answer to a question nobody asked and something some people think they have to buy to stay cool/relevant, imo.

Yeah dude, if you don't have the latest Apple/igadget you are lame. That is just how it goes. That is what the highschoolers tell me anyway. Wasn't the Macbook Air cool for like a week or something a year or two ago?

iPod = Great
iPhone = Good (nice gadget/crappy service)
iAnything else = iCrap
