That Andy Ihnatko 'review' above makes Pogue look like an Apple hater.

Think my favourite part is in that video where he states that the eight hour charge time is a plus.

Won't get our iPad until Monday because I had it shipped to my work instead of home. Didn't realize the launch date was on a Saturday :???///

word on battery time is pretty amazing. Haters are like "no way can you get 10 hrs out of an IPS screen, 3 hours best" and all reviews are like, actually we watched 12 hours of movies straight.

So it's a remote desktop client with an on-screen keyboard, or did they just put it on another tablet?

Played with the one my parents got today. Pretty awesome overall, would be perfect for someone who travels a lot but doesn't need a full laptop.

Not sure how well it would work for reading text for long periods of time or doing much writing/typing.

i know that was a hoax, but I'd totally buy it. Especially if they could design it in a way that the joystick didn't block the screen.

part of me wonders if these people ever used wifi before, while part of me just laughs at early-adopters

My coworker just brought his iPad over to my desk and I was wowed. It's so... nice.

Even as the iPad breaks all sales records, something deeply disturbing is happening at Foxconn, the China-based company that manufactures the gadget for Apple.

Yesterday, an 18-year-old female worker at Foxconn became the fourth person in as many weeks to attempt suicide by jumping from one of the factory buildings.

The girl, only known by her surname, Rao, had only been working at Foxconn’s Longhua plant for a month. Fortunately a tree broke her fall, but she was severely injured.

The iPad isn't a big iPod touch—an iPod touch is a miniature iPad that restricts the full multitouch experience in exchange for offering greater portability. With the iPad, in contrast, you get multitouch the way it was meant to be done.

4 suicides per 300,000 people - is that higher than normal? same thing's happening at cornell too.

They all start out as iPod touches but a wave of male sex hormones during early development turns about half of them into iPads.
