iPad - What do you think?
Chris-D
Well, been a day since they told us about the iPad. What are your thoughts on the device?

Personally, I think I would rather spend my money on a decent netbook, and have some money left over.

From what I hear, this thing has NO:

Flash player
Multitasking ability
Camera
They say the CPU seems fast, but why wouldn't it be, since it doesn't do much, other than act as a large iPod - shoot, an iPod has more functionality I think.

You are right. You can get a netbook or a convertible tablet pc and do the same thing, but better tho. The things that i hate about it is no Flash, no multitasking, no USB port or card reader unless you get an adapter.

The only thing that I like of it is the GSM 3G connection. It is no contract and 250MB plan for $14.99 or an unlimited plan for $29.99 a month.

I don't want &/or need it, its been way over hyped.

Id rather wait see if the other manufacturers come up with better tablets, running Android (or similar)

I SOMEWHAT like it... why somewhat?

this is a great way to give college / university students a solid 'laptop' to write notes with and do homework thats price comparable to a actual laptop (I am actually thinking of getting one for my sister for her b-day so she can get rid of her old hand me down IBM laptop Pfft)... that being said.... common apple, lol this thing is like a giant Ipod.... but I can see where something like this would be great...

Ya, but.... wonder how well the onscreen keyboard works, as it sounds like you can't actually write on the screen.

I'll post a full review once mine arrives Wink ... What can I say, over the past 2 yrs I've became a huge Apple guru.
A computer's attention span is as long as its power cord.

I would much rather have the new Lenovo, it has the new intel atom 470, has a real keyboard, can turn into a tablet and is the same price as the baseline iPad.

Nice video of Lenovo iPad but I personally feel iPad will be big failure of the year. Because it lacks so many technologies. I mean there is very small advancement on slate and tablets and I don't think that's enough. Can you think to work on single tasking technology in 20th century.

I think the competition will come out with better, for around the same cost.
