So, what does /sci/ think of the new iPAD?I saw the new commercial today:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vClH3YjXSNUand it looks pretty cool.
Ask /g/.I think it's another butthole from the wave of consumerism.NOT EVERYONE NEEDS ONE, APPLE. SHUT UP.
Expensive, oversized ipod touch.It is made out of gay fail and aids.
>>158809>it looks pretty coolto lazy to find the comparison with that 8 year old tablet that is better in any way than this iPod2.0 with extra icon space
It doesn't make phone calls
Here's some advice:Apple's marketing campaign for this is to convince people that everyone needs one.Don't fall for this bullshit, please.
>>158851I don't know. It does look really cool:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vClH3YjXSNU
Like the iPod and the iPhone, it's full retard, and you can get better stuff for much less.
>>158851I'm fairy sure that's the point of a marketing campaign.
It could be the beginning of the end for Apple.Really, it's a pile of shit.
Nobody likes the iPad.I've not seen any positive comments anywhere.shit sucks.
Another fine example of apple being able to sell any pile of shit it likes, so long as it is shiny and has apple written on it.
>>158861>it does look really coolYOU HAVE PIERCED THE CORE OF APPLE'S MARKETING STRATEGYgoddamn it, why does apple keep churning out this stuff?(rhetorical question)answer; because fucking idiots keep buying it
>>158871Yeah, I thought that too. But this is a specialised product, and Apple is selling it like it's not. Not everyone needs a walrus scrubber. Its 5 types of brush will clean even the dirtiest of seabound mammal.

>>158878Go to wired.com they are sucking apples dick 24/7.
>>158887 is not getting that this is a troll thread
if it can end the habit of me carrying all my books and notebooks and remove the need for an overpowered-for-that-i-use-it all purpose computer to do computations with reasonable logistics (battery life) then maybe it has some nitche to fill, if it tries the over powered laptop with a touchscreen and shitty programs like others have then no.
>>158905Wired is bought and payed by Apple.I mean unbiased people.

>>158860I think that 4 IPhones and Duct tape are far superior than iPad.
I have a tablet PC already. Fuck off, Apple.

When Microsoft launches courier it will kick shit out of Ipad and other apple crap.Courier seems like something I could use as a university notebook, not oversized media player with fart app.
