Yeah. What she said!
Use mine daily for various things and love it. Plus, Flash has been inherently evil since the 1990's, so it makes me feel happy to watch the majority of the mainstream world move in the direction of HTML5/h.264

This is the most true statement ever written about the ipad. People fuck around with slow interface and lack of keyboard sitting with a ipad or laptop balanced on their belly or laying down in bed while they watch tv and waste their time with bullshit instead of sitting in a proper chair with back support and a real keyboard like they are strapped into a cockpit of a fighter jet and getting things done in an efficient manner.

i got one for a gift and actually love it.

Although it looked cool, i would of never bought one, but being given one and actually playing with it, its great. i use it a lot to watch tv shows and movies on while traveling, as well reading some sites and playing some games.

i recently hooked it up to my AV system to be able to watch video through Hulu which is pretty decent quality

I bought one on launch day in April and sold it a few months ago in anticipation of the Samsung Galaxy Tab. Bought the Tab and didnt really like it. Not that much larger than my Evo and the current Android wasnt ready for a tablet yet. Ended up buying another iPad :thumbsup

Love mine. I use it primarily for social networking apps, magazine apps and web surfing. So much easier to surf the web on the coach or in bed without a big ass laptop on my crotch.

Downsides: No flash is almost an unforgivable offense. The email client sucks as well IMHO.

The next gen android tabs will be hot. While the ipad next gen will most likely be a hit too.

I bought my first iPhone 2 years ago and since then have purchased a Macbook, 2 x iMac 27", Apple Time Capsule and various other devices and am thrilled with all of them. Their support is also first rate which is just as good as the quality of their products in my opinion.

When one of my network devices died, I was talking to technical support within seconds of completing the phone call. When I went to the apple store to replace the item, a service agent tagged me with her iphone as soon as I walked in the door and within 10 minutes I was called to the Genius bar to discuss the problem.

Talk about fast, efficient and friendly.

Compare this to the shitty world of PC's. It takes hours to get Microsoft on the phone, and if your PC dies you have to hunt around for a part and then worry about compatibility, drivers and other nonsense.

It's too bad that you don't like Apple. You should really give them a second chance. They really earned my business and now loyalty. I spend my computer time working (and playing) instead of banging my head in frustration.

I had a hard drive die on me in Vegas an hour before my presentation at InterNEXT.

Walked in to Apple Store. Saw Genius within 10 minutes. He worked on my machine for 30 minutes. Managed to get the powerpoint file off the dead drive. I did my presentation. As he swopped over the hard drive. Went back after, new hard drive, machine working fine.

Tell me another hardware manufacturer that would do that!

When the iPad 2 comes out you will all feel like beta testers.. or make that alpha...

Anyone still using their iPhone1 or 2?

Didn't think so...

No point paying apple prices for something that is going to be outdated very soon.

That is what people said about the ipod
