32GB iPad for sale
« on: September 22, 2010, 09:39:40 AM »
I have a two month old iPad 32GB WiFi for sale with case for ?399 if anyone's interested.  Perfect condition, comes with a leather case that cost ?30.  Free P&P.

lol finally realise it was useless then Bill? You have to hand it to Apple marketing though, they could sell snow to the eskimos (only the snow would be loaned, it's still owned by Steve Jobs).

Are they that good  ;D
 
iPad v Rock
Ipadversusrock

 

intended to be humorous. However, it has a serious component. It is reminiscent of the recent Droid versus iPhone commercials, in that it highlights all of the ways that Apple can say no, while providing a pretty product. Neither the rock nor the iPad has a camera. Neither has a removable battery. Neither multi-tasks. However, the killer for me is that the new iPad has no USB ports, so no peripherals can be attached. I don't care how clunky or boxy a netbook looks next to the sleek iPad. Lack of peripherals is a deal killer. What Apple has created is an expensive, sleek looking, ereader.

*yawn* you sound like people from ten years ago, 'what do we need mobile phones for? no one needs those' etc.  Let's face it, we'll all have some sort of ipad device in a few years.

I'm not sure I'd be willing to pay ?600 for a eBook reader that you can play Scrabble on all the same.

If apple open itself up a bit it could vastly improve its sales. e.g. Allow divx and h264 codecs then the ipad could be used with movies both SD and HD rather than having to go thru the iStore.
 
I have to say this lack of flexibhlity is a killer in my book.

I am usually a fan of apple stuff but the iPad . . . .

I can?t really see where it fits, I mean it is too big to be a phone - you cant just put it in your pocket, and it is too small to be a laptop - to be able to type you have to give you half the screen.

For me if I wanted a phone I would get a phone, if I wanted a laptop I would get a laptop, I don?t really want to try to combine the both and end up with neither.

I'm a fan of Apple's iPhones, and I do like the iPad, but the only thing is, if it had Flash, then it would be really good, know what I mean?

You have another problem here, aren't the new ipad's out at the end of the month. Faster processor - maybe they will be able to handle h264 codec, the last one couldnt. At least if it could and you had a video collection on a NAS attached to a wifi network you could use it as an HDTV for streaming the films or an ebook reader or a rather large games console...... any other suggestions or is it our imagination that is too limited ?(nah)

btw Hi Brian good to to read you.
