I pressed with my rotten fingertips down on that LAZY_LINK, it was an Autechre fake. The iPad made it an immersive beauty, I feel entrenched in the scene.

i like windows because i'm cold and stuffy and a bit socially inept...perhaps, just perhaps if i bought apple products, i could blossom into a free thinking creative individual. yes, if only....

I believe CX is an Apple shareholder or possibly a shill planted on these forums to promote Apple products in exchange for iphone apps.

the kindle is very much alive precisely because it has a technology that can't be replicated by traditional lcd/tft or other backlit screens (e-ink). One of the major advantages other than no eyestrain is that it doesn't drain the battery except when 'turning' the page so it can last for weeks or longer.

im not an apple fan (never owned a mac) but own an iphone.
i have zero use for a laptop right now. all my power work is done on desktops - including web browsing (multiple browsers, cpu intensive web sites, gobloads of tabs open at once)
quite frankly, it is a pain in the ass to have a laptop. all those extra i/o ports ill never use. id love to have a netbook but the shit is too small for me. the only thing id be doing is web browsing, email, and watching tv/movies.
to be honest, the more i type this out the more i realize it's exactly something that i would want. something to keep on the nightstand/browsing in bed with a light weight device....wifi is all i would need..same with a coffee shop/hangout - why have this huge device with wasted space (i/o) when you could have something lightweight and a huge, beautiful screen (!not waht netbooks offer).
i cant justify owning one, but it does fit those design requirements pretty damn well...and came in a lot cheaper than i was expecting.
who wants to lay in bed with a huge laptop on their belly.
it's not mind blowing, but i can see those who would have such requirements. just another product...carry on

so if you got one, would you get rid of your iPhone?
if not, why not? because it makes no sense to have an iPhone and an iPad. no sense at all.

I wonder if the capacitive sensors are more sensitive? ie- a smaller iPhone stylus can be made now. This would actually spark my interest.
No multitasking and no in-browser Flash basically ruins it.
I own a smart phone and a laptop, so this doesnt really enhance my daily experience.

Terence's Hill initial wants to post his opinion too:
uuh, meh. could have been much, much more exciting. the name, the looks, screen resolution, connectivity, no background apps, and most of all the interface. Dunno, i'm using my Macbook Pro a lot, got keyboard shortcuts for anything, and i just don't see this blown up iPod touch really a better experience at any but the simplest task, especially browsing web or doing mail, where you have to type. how do you speed-google on this thing? i expected a real computer with a stripped down, highly customized OS X, damnit.
that said, Apple's strategy will probably work fantastically, it will be a huge success and there will be really excellent single purpose multitouch software of all sorts for this thing within the next 6-9 months or so… as the iPhone app store is kinda crammed, developers will now jump on it… and using it as a peripheral to a proper computer, that you can unplug and take it to the bathroom for porn consumption, could be great really, though it all depends on Apple loosening their friggin store censorship bullshit.

it's a weird product really aimed at non hardcore computer users- It's not trying to be better than a laptop or to be a phone - i'd imagine it'll sell a shed load to slightly older/casual users or business folk that ride trains everyday. On the plus side i think it's just some software away from being a £300 Lemur interface for music applications. Given that the Lemur is nearly £2000, that's pretty decent.
I think the cringeworthy 'applespeak' marketing harms it a bit. It doesn't matter how often steve jobs says it's amazing without really showing some new functionality. i think once they sort tv subscriptions and skype cameras it'll be a much stronger product. Not for me tho.
Prolly should have called it iTab too and avoided 500 lazy internet tampon jokes.

i think the fact that there had been a lot of speculation about 3D displays and minority report style multitouch interaction means that alot of people are going to feel disappointed at this thing.

this indeed, though it will have major drawbacks in that regard as well, being a completely closed, Apple controlled system.
i.e., Ableton might want to have M4L running on it, and Apple might not want them to, etc. etc.

that you have to pay to make software for it is the most gay thing in computing history. i think jobs forgot that he started in a fucking garage.
if the software would be open source this would be a awesome device. think of making a lemur for 1/3 the price and with wi-fi so you can jump around the stage armed with it.
oh and i hope that they add a tissue to it so you can wipe all the fingerprints from it. fingerprints have a tendency to love shiny surface. and they love ultra-glossy displays.

thanks for that link cronenburger. I found this too.
I wonder if something like this could run Sketchbook Pro???
I feel like I am looking for the holy grail of digital art making—a portable cintiq tablet type device that is below $500 and has a proper stylus. Simply, I want a full color digital replacement to my sketchbooks.
