The most entertainment you will ever have with an iPad.

I went to try one out at Best Buy. It was 'meh' which is exactly what I expected it to be.

Ok is this thing anything more than a nine-inch iPod touch?

No. Not really.

Its running iPhone OS 3.2 so how could it really be anymore then a Touch with a 10" screen

You should have taken a blendtec blender with you!

Epic.

Edit: He hasn't done a droid yet. There's a reason for this, and it isn't because Google owns Youtube...

I wonder how much money he had to invest before "will it blend" caught on and he started making money.

Yes. It's a 9.7" iPod touch. ;P

Seriously though, no... They were idiots and just threw iPhone OS on it instead of actually bothering to make something that would actually take advantage of the hardware...and as a result, yeah, it's basically a giant iPhone.



As for the video, did anyone else notice that he was somehow using the capacitive touch screen while wearing leather gloves?

I wonder if the 4.0 announcement means that we'll see updated software on the iPad soon? I may be getting my hands on one soon (loan/test), so I'll let you all know when/if I do. :)

not to mention that the software that is $.99 for your iTouch is $4.99~$15.99

Well of course it is. The screen is so much bigger, therefore the apps are bigger. And as we all know, bigger things are more expensive. :whistler:

I want one of those blenders now.

[BuzzKillington]

What about........ will it shred?

[x88x]

Hahaha, niiice.

[Zephik]

I demand a battle between will it blend and will it shred. Just throw them in a bag and see what happens... lol

[x88x]

How about 'will the Blendtek Blender shred?' :P

[crenn]

When I thought shreding... I thought paper shreder... not riding it like a skateboard...
