This price was a bit on the high side but not too bad. The reason I am passing on the Civic is because it does not come with a radio, air conditioning, or heater. I might be willing to work around these shortcomings if I could install aftermarket parts. However, the cars hardware is locked and I cannot install a radio, or A/C and heater. The car does get you from point A to point B with no problems, but having a radio and A/C and heater are just must have items for me. I know many will think these are optional components and will be perfectly fine without them. I am waiting for a car with some of the same features as the Civic but with all of the missing must-have items.
That is a better analogy for me, as in that analogy I DO want a compact car. So it's not a case of being disappointed the Civic isn't a truck or SUV etc.

Speaking literally, I DO want a tablet device that is not a full tablet PC. The iPad is just lacking a few features that are deal breakers for me, so I was disappointed as it gets a ton of other things like form factor, battery life etc. right.
