Ipad? Fantastic or Fail? Or Fantastic Fail?

Postby 3.14 » April 25th, 2010, 11:48 am

Well my friend got his Ipad and he was utterly dissapointed.

He was like ,"THIS PRODUCT IS S*IT I'm GOING TO KILL STEVEN JOBS".

Well what do you guys think?

I've heard great reviews of it…from critics and friends.

I do want an iPad, but thinking about that name makes me feel a little queezy...

I was gonna make a tampon joke, but I figured... Too easy.

Anyways, I haven't seen a reason to get the iPad, but I haven't seen any of its capabilities yet. O_o And the fact that I'm poor doesn't help with that either... >_>

Heh, Jacksfilms reference FTW!

Anyhow, it's basically a cross between a computer and the iPod Touch, combining features from both. For example, the iPad does word processing and also plays music.

The only better thing is you can type on it like a computer.
