I'm not an Apple guy (at least not yet) but the iPad is really cool looking!
It's harder to kidnap fat people!

Actually I'm like *yawn*

To become viable the features are going to have to be over the top.

Hopefully more info soon

It looks like an oversize iPhone right now. Not sure on the features yet though.

iPad Launch event or more details.

WiFi + 3g is even more. So for a 64gb model with WiFi + 3G is $829. still seems kinda pricey to me. But it looks cool....
Let the wild rumpus start!

Don't know squat about it, but I like who they put in this ad image.

We have the ipod touch and I think it's awesome. The ipad can even be way more cool. :wink:
I think it would be awesome if you could write on it. Good software, like really using paper and pen. They can do all the cool stuff they do surely they can do that.

Skype is nothing more than Google Voice without video ability, and the lack of a camera on the iPad will hurt sales.
