Just to let everyone know, having been in the industry, there is a lot of bullsh*t and lying going on with publishing. Consumers here are trying to get at the numbers, because it's hard to fathom why publishers who were content with current e-boo…

Quote: Availability of Apple's forthcoming iPad may be limited when it launches later this month, due to an "unspecified production problem" that could restrict the number of shipped units to just 300,000. What I suspect happened is the Chines…

The way I figure it, it costs the publishers half the cost of a traditional paper book for a e-book on the iBookStore with Apple taking their 30% cut. Apple and the publishers can go ahead and charge $13-$14 a e-book, however if they included a r…

If Apple didn't intend to replace the MacBook line with iPads, they wouldn't have phased out all the successfully selling MacBooks over the last year and just leave one. The iPad has a lower barrier to entry than the $999 MacBook, also the access…

Quote: It is also possible that, given the limited number of units available in March, the launch will be delayed for a month. Emporer Jobs is most displeased with your apparent lack of progress.

The MacBooks are intended for the younger market, the MacBook Pro is intended for the more mature market. Apple introduces a line of iPads, but it's not ready for market yet. As soon as sales pick up all Apple has to do is eliminate the one remai…

Quote: Apple has not revealed specifics on the design of its processor aside from its speed, but has touted that the A4 was designed in-house by the company for the forthcoming iPad. I'm willing to bet there is some sort of EFI reading SSD, ph…

Quote: Of course it does - ES's point was that a fully loaded iPad approaches the cost of a low end Macbook - basic correct point but with very limited practical value when you think about it more. ES's point was valid and true and obviously cle…

My guess is whatever the MacBook sales numbers were, is going to be the iPad's sales numbers, after the brief initial rush of a new product release of course.

Something interesting that is bound to come out is a iPad case/folder that has a thin keyboard and trackpad on one side. The other side holds the iPad so one can still use the touchscreen yet provides the benefits of the stand, holding the iPad in a…

I have a iPod Classic for music, as my library is quite large and unable to fit on a iPod Touch. I want the iPod Touch to load up on useful apps, to use it like a portable tool. Obviously my needs are different than others, that's why I'm tryi…
