    When did Apple (you know the company that actually made the iPad and provides continuing development and support, as opposed to some third party vendor or jail broken application) EVER indicate that Flash was going to be on the iPad? They have always maintained it would not. So, why are you mad at Apple for simply adhering to what they have always claimed? In no way have they EVER misled anyone with any sense about Flash.

    You may have other valid claims of problems with the iPad, but thinking Flash may someday be on it AND blaming Apple is your own fault - unless you are a complete idiot.

    Ease up with the name calling lol...

    You completely missed my point in my post that you quoted.

    I never said it was wrong to have Flash. I'm just calling you out on your bull****. If you ever thought that Flash was coming to the iPad, you were kidding yourself. The fact that Apple came out and said they would be taking the HTML5 route should've been enough to tell you that it was never going to happen. If you were hoping for a jailbroken solution, you had some really high hopes of something that didn't really have a chance to exist.

    You can't just port Flash into an OS... it's much more complex.

    I'm not saying it's right that Apple is not allowing Flash on iOS... but this argument is about 2 years old now and for you to have not known that is really peculiar.

    Oh and you're an apple fanboy IMO because you own an iPad. ;)

    Yeah, I would be really surprised they go down to 399. That would be killer. The competition can barely get to 600.

    Thanks for the heads up. Any cures for Microsoft Office? I can't imagine not being able to use Word, Excel, Powerpoint, etc. on a computer- it would feel pretty useless to me without it. I understand that there are some programs on it that allow word documents and such, but it would be better to have a fully functional Office. But the stylus feature is a big plus.

    I don't think the iPod touch will ever go away. It's like the gateway drug to Apple. Its most commonly the first piece of Apple equipment that most people come into contact with. Besides, the iPod touch has much more portability. I'd laugh uncontrollably if I saw someone running around the neighborhood with some sort of backpack for an iPad strapped to them.

    I'm an idiot? Did they have cut and paste and multitask at the beginning? So why is cut and paste and multitask on it now?

    Nice try idiot. Try a little harder with your trolling me.

    They never said they weren't going to put copy and paste and/or multitasking on iOS. That's the biggest different in your argument... they've already came out and said NO FLASH. It's really not that hard to process.

    Please point me to the link where Steve Jobs said they would NOT have cut and paste and NOT have multi-tasking on the iPad. Thanks.
