dcb11 · 03-14-10, 12:47 AM

Has anyone here already pre-ordered one? and I have a been reading alot about it but is this going to be worth it? I am considering pre-ordering one and it looks like Apple already has over 120,000 pre orders.

what is everyones thoughts on this NEW product from Apple being released in a few weeks.

way too big for my tastes

I ordered one last week, can't wait to get it. I am a huge supporter of Apple. I use my Imac, Iphone and Macbook daily. I am very anxious to get my Ipad!

Unless they get rid of the App store concept and embrace a more open approach, I'll wait for a linux based clone.

Can't wait until they release hard sales numbers so my stock price will skyrocket

My apologies as this was NOT intended to be SPAM as I was only asking opinions before I put my hard earned money into a product amd was only looking at feedback from whoever would give their opinion on this new product so I will accept your punishment for the 1 point penalty.

Does this mean you have to get a contract thru them to use it like cell phones?

DCB we are investigating you, it is a typical C-4 investigation and all we do is verify you do not work for apple and or get an affiliate deal with every phone purchased here at SBR.

Bear with us and God Bless

NP JJ if you want I can help you out as I work at the University in Happy Valley and
have NO affiliation with Apple other than discounts we get from them as a faculty/staff benefit which amounts to I believe 10 percent discount.

There are lots of new tablets coming out with USB and front facing cameras that run full OSs. Looking forward to getting one on a 4g network.

can't use downloaded software. pass

tltaylor89 · 03-14-10, 12:29 PM

It may be an Iphone for Shaq specs are a pass although the did sell 160,000 units on the first day of sales.Big fan of Apple but Idont buy all their products you would want this for the flash factor it definitely starts conversations.

PureGuava · 03-14-10, 12:32 PM

jj is right

just a glorified iphone

Powderguy · 03-14-10, 12:56 PM

Don't waste your money on it, there is nothing unique about it.

dcb11 · 03-14-10, 01:22 PM

thanks bill thats what i was looking for before i threw money at Apple as i am a big HP person

flyingillini · 03-14-10, 01:39 PM

I will probably end up using my Iphone and Macbook more, I just want to try it out and have one laying around the house. It's not that much money and should be a nice thing to have....Can't wait..

Someone else can correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think it requires the use of a contract. You can use wi-fi to run it, or get a data only plan (no contract) from AT&T.

jjgold · 03-14-10, 04:39 PM

It just a gadget that will ave very little use for most other than maybe a game App console

Its a toy for the couch but i rather buy a small laptop much better value
