I agree fully to call someone stupid if he isn't fully informed about a disruptive device like the ipad is very ignorant. Everybody has made a mispurchase before, mine speaking of ereaders has been an eink device (bebook). I don't like the so called dedicated ereaders at all with their low contrast green muddy displays and their sluggish response. I could have been informed better, but there were so many people in this forum enthusiastic about eink that ordered the bebook right away. After a while i recognized that i liked reading on the iphone with stanza much more, and i'm looking eagerly forward to the ipad in europe. This doesn't mean that criticism of the ipad isn't appreciated, it's quite the opposite. (e.g. the very interesting gizmodo article about ibooks and amazon kindle)
So let's stay polite, i'm looking forward to many controversial threads.
