Ironic considering you proved my point on all accounts.

Yeah.. I am sure all those people that bought the iPhone really need a cell phone as well... just like they REALLY need an iPad... Most people in the world don't even have food and clean water and we can watch TV at the coffee shop on our iPhone …

If you didn't buy an iPhone then why are you arguing with me? You obviously don't see the value in Apple's products either. So we are in agreement.

Then you are deluding yourself.. because believe it or not I get it more than you do. But I know mac zealots are really really good at deluding themselves... which is why Jobs can put sh!t out in a sack and the devoted koolaid drinkers will buy…

There is something that just doesn't add up about the iPad.. supposedly Jobs has been working on this for 10 years.. yet how much work does this iPad require when you consider all they did was scale up the iPhone? It makes no sense... The only ans…

But the reason it fits with the Segway is because only rich people could afford to buy a car and a Segway.. the Segway doesn't fill the need of someone that needs a car.. so to buy one you need to be rich. It's the same thing with the iPad.. UNLESS …
-
I think another reason the iPad and Segway are so comparable is because they are both luxury items that don't fill a need. I think what Apple should have done was to make 2 devices.. one like the current iPad though maybe a little smaller and a l…

I think the reality of it is that what made the iPhone so great was that it was MORE than a phone.. it was a true full fledged computer.. which made it incredibly expensive but incredibly UNIQUE among other phones. The iPad doesn't meet this.. it;s…

Another problem the iPad has is that it isn't that different than the other tablets coming out. It's a lot like the others and unlike the iPhone it doesn't offer enough different capabilities to really differentiate it. This is the mistake Apple m…

Quote: Your sense that the iPad is somehow turning into a Segway fiasco is pure fantasy. You're seeing what you want to see. The fact that your bullshit strikes you as innocuous and obvious just means you're very comfortable with bullshit, not that…

Quote: Your sense of entitlement here is overwhelming. You're pissed that Apple didn't make the machine you fantasized about and you're sure they should have let you down easy, to the point that you imagine they've inflicted a grievous wound on the…

Quote: How? The internet hype was an ever moving target. Was Steve Jobs supposed to hold a press conference where he ticked off all the things the tablet wasn't? And then issue follow-ups saying "Nope, not that either" with each further flight of…

Quote: complex, multifinger gestures were never, ever in the cards, I completely disagree with this.. I just think that for whatever reason they are rolling it out much more slowly than I myself had hoped. I think they are teaching people how to…

But how can you think a large screen iPhone is revolutionary? Or the "most important thing I've done"? I mean.. I think everyone sees the potential of the tablet.. and some people realize the true greatness of it is the touch interface and that…
