I did notice one thing though, in case any of you are thinking about pre-ordering.
The iPad that's coming out early April will NOT ship with WI-FI. If I were you I would wait for the one that ships with WI-FI late April. and for those of you who are considering other options http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/articl...BU781CID5G.DTL just an idea. |

I gotta tell you, I was playing with an iPod touch and these things are really cool. sigh.
Still I'm not getting any device until I decide which way I'm gonna go when I replace my cell phone (android, BB, or .... ) |

I have had a touch for a while and just got the phone this weekend. Now that I have the phone the touch is kinda useless but either way, they are both a lot of fun.

The Beautification of Car

i def get one later, not now since there will be bugs, battery problem...etc. It's even more awesome if you can hack it like itouch or iphone.
This will not replace a netbook or laptop, but it's good for what it is. |

Just so you know, Scripts is not compatible with Words. If you do word processing, it won't convert easily. Other than that, Apple is great at anything entertaining. |

You'll be fine, Garm. I'd still wait for the one that ships out with WiFi, though.

OK, you're right, according to that website
Wait a minute, I was at the Apple store last week, and THEY GAVE ME the flyer that says "no wi-fi" on pre-order models. I'm not making it up!! I remember discussing it with some guy in the store and we were both scratching our heads about that. ugh |

Oh, I don't think I"ll get it. I've got my eyes on smartphones lately
So many gadgets ... so little money. Can't have them all Yeah, they were giving out print-outs and signing people up, so I DNK. Maybe a misprint but you think they would have caught it? |

OK. I know I'm a dork, but come on, I wasn't dreaming 2 weeks ago when I went to the apple store, and it really disturbs me when I give people erroneous info (like I did on this thread with the WIFI thing) so I went back to the Apple store on my way home today and asked if they still had the print-outs they were giving out before.
The guy I spoke to, today, said "oh, yeah, there was some confusion about that a couple of weeks ago, but what's on the website is correct" Then he asked me if I wanted to pre-order and when I said not really he really lost interest in the conversation ;) Anyway, they ARE shipping out with WIFI, but not with 3G. 3G will come later on in April and there is a difference in price for adding 3G to the device. |

Only Happy When it Rains

apple can be so clueless it is amazing. They introduce this new product, yet do everything they can possibly think of to make it a pos.
The only reason i have an ipod is because i have the jack so i can control it through my car stereo. we complain about the car companies doing stupid crap with products, they can't hold a candle to what apple does.

I tried Google Docs on my Mac Mini since words wasn't working with Scripts. Tried Open Office, but it would only run Scripts.
