I think Apple makes great products...but this sucks donkey dick. There's nothing special about this thing.

I'm not much of a fan of Apple but that ipad looks all right. I don't like the name. But I can't stop thinking about what its like to carry around my brothers itouch. I'm always worried about breaking the thing. If the pad is anything like the touch in the way it is built it would drive me crazy. I have seen customers come in with smashed screens on the touch and that would suck on that pad.

I'm also not to impressed with the hard drive size. They talk about how nice it would be to watch movies on that large screen and I'm sure they are right. But they should have had larger drives in it. It has the same size drives as the touch and I had many complain about the size of them.

I have a touch and don't worry about it too much. Sure, when I first got it I was conscious of it but I am no longer delicate with it and the screen doesn't have so much as a scratch. The polished metal back is scratched all to hell though.

I guess people watch movies on laptops, ipods, and eventually stuff like the ipad, but I don't really understand it. Larger TVs (40" and bigger) aren't really that expensive anymore. Why would I want to watch a movie on a 10" screen?

I can't talk, I'll sit and watch Naruto on my laptop sitting on my couch in front of my 55'' TV...

I'm still trying to figure surfing the net on your phone, the only internet I want on my phone is sports scores, the weather and my email.

A lot of people like me spend a lot of time on public transportation (trains, subways etc) so it's ideal for situations like that. Also plane travel.

Its not scratches I'm worried about. You are right the back scratches real easy. People have put them in their pocket and sat down. They put just enough force on it to crack the screen. And the ones that were dropped the screen shatters.

Your not always home to watch your big screen so this allows you to watch a movie anywhere.

I saw that thing yesterday. How the fuck is it suppose to replace the net books? I get that it is small and sleek but the thing doesn't fold so typing would be a bitch. Basically lay your laptop screen all the way down and type.

I guess Starbucks will be removing tables soon so their customer base can have room to prop their leg up (which will be crazy uncomfortable after a while).

The coolest thing I have ever seen Apple do is adapt their computer to switch from the Mac thingy to Windows.
