Ha ha. I had no idea about this iPad thing at all and apparently finally decided to open this thread right as the announcement was happening.

no one needs to have all of their fiction books around all the time, but man REFERENCES. SO MANY REFERENCES

Word to this. Got a Reader for Christmas and was pretty unsure of what to do with it (all of the fiction stuff I've found/bought thus far was laid out like some shit, but ultimately decided that e-readers make fantastic portable reference libraries.

iPad is the worst brand name since Aciphex.

if this had the full OSX instead of the iPhone OS, at 499 this would be awesome...

really? Iphone OS means no adobe acrobat = no access to most educational/interactive websites...

― Deluxe Merseybeat Wig (Jack Battery-Pack), Wednesday, 27 January 2010 19:33 (sixteen years ago)

Jobs: iPad is our most advanced technology in magical and revolutionary device at an unbelievable price.

Jobs' Shop of Mystical Wonders.

― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 27 January 2010 19:33 (sixteen years ago)

The only thing that's really wow about this is the price, but that's kinda enough.

― Euler, Wednesday, 27 January 2010 19:33 (sixteen years ago)

what the hell are you talking about

― his power told him (about the fish) (gbx), Wednesday, 27 January 2010 19:34 (sixteen years ago)

What did you want? Looks pretty good to me. Maybe ability to handwrite on it would be good - wouldn't shock me if a third party could do that, though.

really? Iphone OS means no adobe acrobat

There are PDF readers on the iPhone, they just aren't named Acrobat

not acrobat = sorry i meant Flash...

― Deluxe Merseybeat Wig (Jack Battery-Pack), Wednesday, 27 January 2010 19:35 (sixteen years ago)

BIG DIFFERENCE BTW FLASH AND ACROBAT

― Astronaut Mike Dexter (Jimmy The Mod Awaits The Return Of His Beloved), Wednesday, 27 January 2010 19:35 (sixteen years ago)

You can read PDFs on an iPhone perfectly well, so that won't be a problem on this. (x-post)

Results 1 - 10 of about 79 for "sent from my ipad".

― James Mitchell, Wednesday, 27 January 2010 19:35 (sixteen years ago)

typing looks atrocious for anything more than an email or w/e

― his power told him (about the fish) (gbx), Wednesday, 27 January 2010 19:35 (sixteen years ago)

What are these educational websites that require flash?!

Anyway I'm quite sure I'll be getting one for educational use.

Coming Soon: The iStool, an obtusely angled footrest to prop your feet on so you can reasonably type on the iPad

― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Wednesday, 27 January 2010 19:39 (sixteen years ago)

For university students I can see a market for this... but in K-12 it's pretty useless...

― Deluxe Merseybeat Wig (Jack Battery-Pack), Wednesday, 27 January 2010 19:39 (sixteen years ago)

that's fine, children don't have money

keyboard looks really awkward in the video

― stet, Wednesday, 27 January 2010 19:40 (sixteen years ago)

Yeah, I'm not sure that pre-university students are exactly the target market.

― caek, Wednesday, 27 January 2010 19:41 (sixteen years ago)

Oh, there's a little 30-pin SD card reader. That'd be cool for photography and (maybe) SLR videography.

― ENERGY FOOD (en i see kay), Wednesday, 27 January 2010 19:42 (sixteen years ago)
