Oops, I missed poking fun at that comment in my earlier reply/rant! I'm with you; the Apple Kool-Aid cult is killing me.

Slightly off-topic, but the kiddos and I were in the AT&T store last night so that teenager #2 could pick out a new phone for his upgrade. All the kids played with the iPad briefly, and their heartfelt conclusion was "It's just an oversized and overpriced iTouch. Big whoop."

Although their comments were sotto voce, the hipster at the counter purchasing an iPad at that very moment squared his shoulders as if to say something but then kept his tongue. It looked as if some of the curl had gone out of his chin pubes...
