Not sure this is a good comparison.

Most were clamoring for Cut/Paste, Search, push notifications, Flash, MMS, video recording, multitasking and GPS. The physical keyboard was not even a blip among those.

At every point, there were some of the faithful, who defended to the death Apple's decision not to offer some option which was ubiquitous on every other device.

(I personally found the "I don't need no freakin' Cut/Paste and Search" defenders the funniest and the weirdest).

There is so much nonsense floating on the attempts to justify the lack of Flash on the iPad, which is advertised as "The best way to experience the web. Hands down."

I can't wait to hear the same crowd sing Hallelujah to Jobs, when he introduces iPad v.3 as "The best way to experience the most exciting Flash content on the web."
