The rush experience with Apple is awesome. I was in line for the 3G and chatted with two really cool people while we were waiting. Though I had this woman keep on bugging me if I was going to sell my original iPhone and kept saying no I wasn't........

no flash support, no camera...i prefer paper books - there really doesn't seem to be a reason to get one other than the novelty of it...

it's made by apple, so if you don't get one everyone you care about will abandon you, and apple will make commercials that mock and deride you. you will be ostracized, and the enlightened people that bought ipads will spit on you. women will hate you and dogs will avoid you. eventually you'll be committed where you'll be given electroshock treatment until such time as you honestly yearn to own an ipad. you alone will be responsible for all the bad things that happen to small bunny rabbits and everyone will hate you for it. the u.s. government will probably go to war with you.

as much as i am a fanboy, i am staying away from it. maybe version 2.0, but i can read my books and magazines on that ancient material... paper or something like that...

Now excuse me, i am off to watch porn on a LaserDisk.

Anyone know if these e-reader things support multiple bookmarks, highlighting, and notes?

I was starting to think I was one of the few that will never buy a e-reader or anything similar. A real book is so much better.

solefald · 04-01-2010, 12:53 PM

i stopped resisting and just got a new iPad from a dude on Craigslist. I think he is a prince from Nigeria, so he got his hands on it before everybody else because he is royalty

The only people who ever say that are those who haven't spent any real time with a decent reader.

The Netflix Streaming app is available for the iPad as well. I really can't wait.

Yeah I won't be getting one, and I know I am going to be alone here, but after buying a Mac mini (and being one of the idiots that got an iPhone within the first few weeks) I never want to get an Apple product ever again. I fought my iPhone (and the one I got when I returned the 1st one) for two years and then my Mac mini is having Safari crashing issues on top of a keyboard that is junk and a mouse that is rapidly getting there. I just don't understand the appeal of Apple right now. I have certainly loathed both of my Apple products that I have bought in the last few years, call me crazy, but they will be my last. Has anyone else had serious issues with any of their products? They do have good support I will grant them that.
