Perhaps you meant it looked like a bizarro-ipad, which I would agree. I think it's more like multi-function versus single function.

I could go on for hours about Apple...
For example, claiming to have a "business phone", but not even offering "copy and paste" for 15 months.
Or claiming to have a phone at all, which has a battery duration of hours instead of days or even weeks (if I compare to my "standard" phones).
Or having a Mac Mini which sounds like a great Multimedia unit for your living room, but actually has a fan with the noise level of a vacuum cleaner.
Or having AppleTV, which permanently looses connection.
Or having iPod touch.....Well, actually nothing to complain here. Great gadget.
Meaning: They certainly don't have bad products. But I'll never understand the hype about them if I compare to other products. But I guess, that's what great marketing is about...
