Quoting N328KF (Reply 6): I'm not going to say that you have to go get one, but this is an overly simplistic and pedantic viewpoint. |
Quoting GQfluffy (Reply 4): Why buy a highly overrated inflated phone without the phone feature? |
Quoting Cadet57 (Reply 7): That is what an iPad is. A bloated, oversized iPhone that can't make phone calls, has a minimum of features and is overpriced. Yeah, that pretty much sums up Apple. |
Quoting TPA36R (Thread starter): Who's Buying A Ipad? |
Quoting aerorobNZ (Reply 11): If I buy an iPad it would be to catalog and edit my photos quickly and easily while I'm traveling, and maybe hooking up to a wifi connection from time to time. |
Quoting alfa75 (Reply 2): How big are ebook files? |
Quoting signol (Reply 8): Come now, it's basically a netbook without a keyboard (touch screen instead). You're paying for the Apple design. It's a cool piece of kit, but horribly overpriced for what it does. |
Quoting columba (Reply 22): Same with me, I am thinking of buying an IPad in the near future to take on my travels since I don´t want to carry my lap top all the time. |
Quoting Ken777 (Reply 14): Typical "I Hate Apple" response. Probably said the same thing about the iPod, iPhone and iPod touch. Look what flops they turned out to be. |
Quoting Ken777 (Reply 14): non-computer literate. |
Quoting Cadet57 (Reply 9): |
Quoting Fly2HMO (Reply 16): |
Quoting Zentraedi (Reply 20): I really don't understand why people waited in line at the Apple store. The iPads were guaranteed to be delivered on Saturday, so you don't really gain anything by going out and picking one up. |
Quoting LASoctoberB6 (Reply 26): Ya know, you could have just said "computer illiterate... |

Quoting LASoctoberB6 (Reply 26): You're such a hater. |
Quoting ramzi (Reply 24): I guess Apple is/should be focusing on telling customers that the iPad is better than a typical net book in this field. |
Quoting PacNWjet (Reply 32): I am having a hard time figuring out why anyone would want a device with such limited capabilities as a computer. Now, having said that, it does appear that there are any number of cool applications for the ipad, and I can see someone wanting the device to perform fun and useful functions. |
Quoting MCOflyer (Reply 35): I can not use Microsoft Office on an Apple. |
Quoting MCOflyer (Reply 35): I was told apples are good for graphic arts and windows for the rest by a computer expert |

Quoting MCOflyer (Reply 35): I can not use Microsoft Office on an Apple. |
Quoting MCOflyer (Reply 35): I do. I love my Dell and would not trade it for anything. I was told apples are good for graphic arts and windows for the rest by a computer expert. I can not use Microsoft Office on an Apple. |
Quoting Zentraedi (Reply 40): Quoting EA CO AS (Reply 37): A netbook is far more capable and flexible, and not to mention less money as well. A netbook is a very different device. You are comparing a butter knife to a pizza cutter. I ordered an iPad and for every scenario in which I'd use it, a netbook would be more awkward. |
Quoting wingman (Reply 43): If you're just a naysayer then go ahead and pan Apple till the end of days or just buy some stock. |
Quoting wingman (Reply 48): Meanwhile just sit back and pull your hair out as Jobs defies all odds yet again. |
