I can't afford a single Apple product so couldn't care less.

a Big Freakin' iPhone. retarded iDea

The name itself is pretty lame "I-pad", they couldn't have named it some thing better,like "I-tablet"
idk

It's just a giant iTouch, pretty lame

& when you say iPad, it sounds like a New Yorker saying iPod

Well, judging from the presentation, you can browse the internet, flip through internet pages, click links to internet webpages on the internet and I dare even dream that you can internet the internet's internet. ...plus some other stuff.

Yes it's sleek but seems very lacking in function. I was expecting more. I like Apple products when they're not just riding on hype and (frankly, hyped) reputation. The Courier booklet had a more appealing list of features in September last year.

i'm a mac person. so i generally love all things Apple. i just can't afford most of it. but $499 American? that ain't bad!

I like it: Eventually I'll have an affordable digital drawing pad, and this is a good first step.

Well, I think it's an interesting product, not particularly 'awesome' but something that might develop into something better, so yeah, I would wait 2 years before going for it to see if they add any interesting upgrades as times passes by.

It sounds cool and I think the price is okay (for the quality) but it just seems like a giant iPhone both software and design wise. I think they're being too safe with the design.

This one from Microsoft looks much more useful.
