I think he meant paying for 3g, but I'm not sure.

That line bugged me. Theres a big difference between the games you can play on an iPad and the games you can play on a console. There's a reason why consoles are still alive.

That was mean...


Anyway, I honestly think the iPad is pretty cool. I just can't find a single reason why I would want it. I'd be nice to have one, but after the "new toy" feeling is gone (probably after 3 months?), I probably wouldn't touch it. I already have devices that do everything I need, and they take up less space.
