How many of you going to buy new Ipad ?
 

And did you get hard-on watching the news today?

You know, I wanted to hate on it, but it's looking pretty damn slick...

The fact it's an apple product turns me off. I but it still doesn't do flash.

We feel alike.

I guess Apple figures if they stick to their guns long enough people will just get over it, but their restrictive software allowances are enough to keep me away. This is probably one of the key stupid shit decisions Apple has gone by. Hopefully when Jobs is dead in a few months someone will have the sense to overrule the decision befoee the iPad 3 is released next year, lol...

I am going to wait until the ipad 3 comes out 2 mths later.

Will it support flash?

No, for the same reason I never bought the first one. I honestly can't think of what I would use it for.

I'll most likely get one and then sell my current iPad on ebay. I like the fact that the new one has front & back cameras like my iphone 4 and a faster processor for playing games.

I will be buying one as soon as they release a jailbreak for it. Until a jailbreak comes out it is a no deal because crippled hardware just plain sucks. On the plus side that should be like march 12th :)

I can not wait to get my grubby hands on a sweet unleashed jailbroken ipad 2 with legit multi-tasking and a notification system that does not suck dog nuts.

i have the galaxy tab and love it. i think it's size is much more comfortable than the huge ipad....

They don't support flash??? The only use I can see for one is to watch tube videos :)

Youtube streams mp4. No need for flash there. But it really does cripple you from going wherever you want and watching whatever you want.

Yeah, that's the major problem. It's hit and miss with too many sites. More sites than not are way behind with technology and aren't iPad compatible.

Unless a site offers their videos in MP4 or h.264 and are using HTML 5 to server them you can't see the vids on an iPad.

Of course there are software products like the Elevated X CMS (shameless plug) that do automatic server side video conversion and can bulk transcoder a site's videos into other formats so they can be watched or downloaded on an iPad.

Biz-wise we'll get the new one mainly for testing. Personally I probably won't get it since the current one I have has been sitting in a drawer untouched for the last six months.

The iPhone 4 had not just 1, but 2 cameras, click cpu and gpu, etc, while the original ipad seemed like it was based on older technology. The new Ipad now does everything the iphone4 does which makes it much sexier, and now even smaller and lighter. That's... incredible! I can't resist, and will be buying one this month.

Well, we did not pick version one up because there was no camera, and we kind of figured version two would.

Knowing goodgirl, I have a feeling there will be some floating around.

ill just put my current ipad on craigslist for like 250 or something and sell it quick and spend a couple hundred more and get the new one

i really like the facetime option :-)

I'll wait til the 15/17 inch version with a keyboard and flash comes out.

The hilarious shit is that Apple probably could have put this exact model out when the first iPad came out, but they still managed to get all you idiots to bite when the first release came. Now you're all itching to ditch the old model and grab the newer shinier toy already. Odds are they've already got the ipad3 pretty much cooked up with a load of features they probably could have included in this release, and are just checking off days until they can wash, rinse, and repeat on their loyal following of lemmings... :1orglaugh

As long as they insist on releasing a half assed product with pointless limitations on the use of what is otherwise an impressive piece of hardware, they aren't on my wishlist. Well, I'd take one for free, but I won't be buying one... :1orglaugh

HD camera... iMovie installed... this is a nice little portable production studio....

Good for some content producers and great for YouTube Celebs.

I myself neither need an iPad v.1 nor will need iPad v.2.

Thats a nice benefit of having a high income. You can get all the new shiny toys you want and not give a shit about what someone else says or thinks. :winkwink:

I could earn a million dollars a day, that doesn't mean I'd wipe my ass with $100 bills just because I could... :2 cents:

q f t

Yes. Handing down the present iPad to the wife.

not me, I have hookers to pay for

i will get one for sure!

You are a jew. You do know how copper wire was invented, right?

Do I need to remind you whose reptilian brothers run the fucking world? :2 cents:

wait for Motorola Xoom android 3.0 honeycomb

What for?

i want one too

I will wait a year or so and get the ipad 19

Uhhh... the Xoom looks damn sexy!

:thumbsup It does, it does.

Already have a Mexican day labor guy out front of the Apple store saving my space. Just have to give him $20 and lunch each day.

I don't understand why they are still not including shit that was missing from the first iPad.

Isn't that the idea of an upgrade ?

Like a camera or two?

Of course! Anything with an i in front I buy right away! So far I'm the proud owner of an ipad, ipod, iphone and if they ever release an iseat and icar an ibed and an ihouse ill buy one of those too!

I'll be ordering mine on March 11th. I wanted the first version but decided to wait after going into the Apple store and being told I had to be on a list to get one. They made me so angry I just never bothered and decided to wait for this.

It's here, so now I'm getting it.

I be checking the prices on the original ipads in a couple of months to see if any deals are out their.

not

saw the iPad at Best Buy last month and didn't impress me at all which suprised me because I liked the previous gen iPods a lot.

I thought it was heavy, the button was constantly refusing to click or getting stuck, and it was a bit sluggish when I tried opening apps.

Xoom doesn't have flash yet either, but it's coming with the next Flash release so they say. Really that is probably one the only downfalls of the iPad. Otherwise it's got it all. Oh, and the iPad don't handle Javascript either do they? Accept web standards already for fuck sakes.

Bitch all you want about Apple's restrictive software ... but it's still out-selling Android apps 3:1

I don't see much incentive for Apple to change their business model ...

I will definitely be getting one. They kick ass

Yes, that will make me rush out and buy one...

I will ...

I will....... NOT:thumbsup
