Not gonna buy it. It's a fail product by Apple.

I was so hype about all the rumors, but after they announced it, no multitask, no usb port, 4:3 screen, no camera built in, and iPhone OS 3.2? I thought it's gonna be MacOSX? Wow, I've been fool with this rumors. All the hype turn out to be overhyped, a fail product from Apple.

I'm no apple fanboy, but the rumors really do attract my attention, but after it's announce, I rather get iPhone 3gs or HP Slate.

Cause iPhone OS support multitouch and support weak CPU like their using now

by then, many product released windows 7 tablet pc with awesome features (HDMI, USB, Multitask, Optical Touchscreen, Full HD and etc)

Below RM1900 for iPad without 3G and just WIFI is reasonable but! The price is before tax. After tax? Kaboom

It will sell good or not for what I care. All I care is I want the basic thing that could replace noob netbook. The iPad fail to impress majority of the consumer.

It's all depend on personal preference. To me, being a non-mac geek, the iPad is the worst tablet define by Apple ever. I can't see any potential since it's using iPhone OS, with no Multitask, no FLASH (Steve still stubborn you know), no usb port, nothing to brag about! The huge screen should offer more, like MacOSX, Multitask, Flash player, and USB Port (it's big, it should have USB port!). I can't seem to think what's the reason there aren't any of these? If you're talking about application, you need to BUY again the same application that already have inside your iPhone. Pointless.

If you're telling me it has potential cause same OS like the iPhone, you're wrong. Seriously.

I've decided, iPad should be same as Kindle category; eBook Reader.

It's like the iPod, which can use for web browsing, download app and gaming though it's part of Music Player category.

Another reason you shouldn't go for iPad

IMHO, the netbook is having an upgrade weeks by weeks, month by month. The processor is getting better, the graphic is getting better.

Wow, seriously. Only Apple fan/users understand what Steve says.
=,=

That's why I've decided iPad is eBook Reader like the kindle but offer more then kindle.

Same as iPad offer more then other mp4 player.

Lol, I'm not an eBook reader, so I shouldn't get one :\

string, like I say, only Apple fan/user understand what Steve trying to bring with this "iPad".

Let say we end this meaningless discussion? Cause no matter how you/we trying to say, they will try to defend it. LOL

cause from the looks of it, yes you're not a fan of apple

if u wanna continue this discussion, well go ahead, I never force you to stop anyway.

Hmm, since I bought a PC for 2 years now, it doesn't crash too often when playing flash game. More like 2 times a year? Quite less you know. The latest flash player 10 does thing alot better then it's predecessor, I don't get any crash at all now!

Is it Mac are not flash friendly? Maybe yeah.

MacOSX is a full fledge 100% desktop OS. Porting to N900 is amazing (I just WOW see how N900 do things), and that's the best part of it. Even if it took 90 minutes to boot-up, unlike iPhone OS, Maemo is open source and it's free to hack (hack user-friendliness) when compare to other iPhone OS devices including the iPad.

Many people are against iPad due to restrictness, and some hope someone able to hack the iPad and insert the full fledge MacOSX Snow Leapord desktop versions. The wish are near to impossible. Why? Apple is too strict with their consumer/products. iPad should be open abit, multitask (come on Steve) and people would love the devices (including myself). I now don't mind having iPhone OS, but Apple being too strict, no Multitask, no widescreen display, no flash? Come on la! If they want majority PC user to use their products, come up a thing that PC users want! We're tech geek gadget good for nothing user! If we want multitask, then bring it on! Consumer demand high tech things!

I don't mind the design, but majority does not met my expectation. If I buy this tablet, it will replace my everyday newspaper (which I buy from the nearest 7-11) and I will go green with the environment.

p/s: my last post for this topic.
