Sounds like you were expecting the edge to be an iPad replacement, which isn't what it was intended to be (at least, that's my take). I'm sorry your expectations weren't met. Since the Adam isn't out yet, I do wonder how you can be so certain that it will be the wonderful all-encompassing device you're expecting it to be. After all, when you purchased the Edge, you obviously assumed it would meet your needs better than it has. What makes you think the Adam won't fall just as short?

I am very excited about the Edge, but one reason I have waited to purchase it until I can check it out in person is that I have learned that my expectations often lead me into disappointment.

PS To be honest, I really couldn't care less how the Edge looks, but Fisher Price toys look way cool!
