iPad 16GB with 3G, to be shipped in "late April."

My credit card hates me now ... but I regret nothing!

Version 1.0?

Duuude!

It's a giant iPhone/iPod. The technology should be fairly "broken in" by now!

I kid - I'm looking around for a Mac I put a compiler on so I can write some code for them.

good luck....

but I've already given you my advice from 15 years of owning Apple products...(or having them built for me)

I will wait for the inevitable "I love my life... but I hate my iPad" post.

Or not. =)

Oh, just saw this... even so, I can see why you'd buy it. As I love my tablet... did I mention it runs Win7/64?

Swap it for a Newton?

I'll toss in TWO sets of AAs, and even a GSM-modem for use with a Nokia 2110 phone...
(Don't laugh. I used that modem and phone together with another PDA to read email and surf the net once upon a time. 9600bits/seconds... Nice... )

Or maybe I should just bundle the Newton with an old Sierra Aircard(GSM/EDGE/WiFi in a CP-Card format) and sell it on eBay as 'iPad Classic'...

Weren't you complaining a few posts back about Apple and their suck at selling peripherals?

[identity profile] the-gneech.livejournal.com 2010-04-02 12:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Yup, but this isn't a peripheral. (Well, the keyboard and case are peripherals, but I vetted them very thoroughly before buying.)
