Apple sells over 300,000 iPad tablets on US launch day

I am writing this on an iMac.

I do not see any functionality in the iPad more than I do in the iPod or a smart phone. It costs more than either of the aforementioned products and does, probably less than them as well.

It's not hate on Apple, it's hate on iPad. And with good reason, too.

Read up a few posts, I said I'm getting a Nexus One as opposed to the iPad

ilySharon does have a point though, you seem to really like debating in apple's favour. How much are they paying you?

I'm not buying an iPad, I am posting from a Core 2 Quad Acer sporting Windows 7, my phone of choice is a Google Android phone.

If they're paying me I should be fired.

They won't because they know Android will over take iPhone sales? LOL. Nar, I'm just joking with you there. But time will tell! I think having school books and such loaded onto the device wouldn't be such a bad idea. Saves you from carrying them all with you, although it would mean you would have to close one to see another due to the no "multi-tasking".

Actually read what I wrote then reply back... I said that the iPad is targetted towards business people, not did I say that they are just for business men and women. Frankly I think its a useless product - you already have laptops and netbooks, but I am guessing its designed more for ease - you can hold it in the palm of your hand rather than it sit on your lap, you can take it out of your bag and thats it, no hassle in opening it etc etc.

Documents wise I am guessing it will come with your standard apples equivalent to word, excel, powerpoint, ... the whole works. Like others, I'm on the fence with this one, but I can definitely see it being popular within businesses, especially in the stock exchanges.

The way you worded it came off as "300,000 is a likely figure for just business men and women, not users on a Habbo forum". That's how I read it at least. Still, Apple originally advertised it as an entertainment device, with some places praising it as a rival to the Nintendo DS due to the game functionality.

Apparently after jailbroken you can get past this, like on an iPhone/pod.


I wouldn't mind using this for a school organization device either, actually. For that pricetag though....
