Will it be streamed anywhere?

 

right now Leo has audio only. Steve is talking already.http://live.twit.tv/

 

It's called the IPad- Steve Jobs.

 

raj calls it the IPass

 

yep, not impressed at all. It better be under $1000.

 

It's an iphone for people with bad eyesight?

 

Looks like a fail. Miserably.

 

I don't really understand the point of it, is there really that much of a need for something inbetween a smartphone and a laptop?

 

pretty much. kinda like the phones with big keypads.

if the price is not right, this will flop like the macbook air.

 

HAte the name. But then again I thought 'wii' was a mistake so what do I know.

wonder what the onscreen QWERTY is like

 

This is Apple pushing their popularity to the brink yet again. I'm pretty sure they've hit their peak as far as ingenuity and new ideas... at least for the next 15-20 years.

 

Someone help me understand the tablet appeal? I could see it being used in businesses as a hand-held device for people that must be on their feet a lot walking around, taking inventory, etc. However, I'd have to wonder why any business would need anything as flashy and (just guessing) expensive as this.

Or is the target market for this actual individual users? If so, I do not understand why I would want to use this instead of a laptop.

 

this is a big fat WHIFF by apple.

NO FLASH

this is like a color kindle.

It's built for elderly people.

 

In fairness to apple, they're just jumping into a device market that has already been kinda opened.

 

damn it if apple tells you that you need it..u need it! dont ask questions. u better stand in line or else!
