go.tagjag.com – After Apple’s announcement today, what do you think about the ipad? Do you want one? Do you not want one? What do you think it fairly compares to? Is it a Kindle killer? Is it a Netbook killer? Is it an ipod killer? What is it to you? Will you get one or skip it – now, or forever?

BTW – I use: iPhone, MacMini, AppleTV, 4 Windoze Laptops including the HP Tx2Z tablet, and a Motorola Droid. Between my Droid and my iPad I’ll be good to go on the road.
I was thinking about a Kindle DX. Apple just killed that dream. I’m getting an iPAD. This is the only instant-on, multi-touch, mobile piece of hardware with a huge appstore from which I’ve already made purchases! Add to that the fact that I have an RDP client that will run on this and it’s a no brainer. I can connect to and manage all my SharePoint servers and what not with my iPAD!
btw, anyone else think it is going to be awkward typing on the thing? Holding it with one hand and typing with the other. Defeats the purpose of a full size keyboard unless you makeshift a stand or purchase an expensive apple one.
The iPad is such a niche product, pretty well useless i would say. Now that you’re a mac fanboy i find it hard to watch your videos. If you have a levelheaded mind on your shoulders you wouldn’t be so ‘open-minded’ to the iPad. You’d realize that all it does is surf the web and play music, i have a phone and a laptop that does that. Fankly a better ‘iPad’ Experiance could be had if you installed OSX on an HP tx2z
I was expecting a real tablet with the iPad, but all we got was garbage
I understand the responses to the iPad has been overwhelmingly negative. I also understand Chris normally has an overwhelming negative on most everything.
Me, I will wait until the initial hands on reviews come out of the tech community. The major complaints I have about my iPod touch is the small screen and short battery life. The iPad just might serve my needs.
iPad has some disadvantages. But I do believe they should have put Mac OS X in there, Not a frickin enlarged ipod touch…
I do like the new things however. iWork? Awesome. Projector capabilities? Awesome. Mobility? Not awesome. If you got a cool case however… Awesome. No camera…Not really needed since it is not really mobile. I do look forward to it, and may buy the 16gb 3g version and get the unlimited plan. Hope you enjoyed my opinion. If not, then… go eat a cookie in a corner. :]

its fun to have if you have the money
We have experienced something like this… the iphone and ipod touch, just not quite as large. It is literally an oversized touch with a little more cpu under the hood.
Still better to buy a netbook and a usb tablet…full computer plus all the fun of a tablet.
Chris! No OS, no desktop, no files and folders… it’s a toy!
And it’s not priced competitively!!! You’re used to pay 600$ for a phone, so now iPad looks cheap.
16gb?!??!? You’re kiddin’ me!
ipad seems like a cool device
@peterpeter the reason is, apple and other companies pay him to review their product online. if he says bad stuff about them, then they will never give him a chance to review their products..
how many people use mouse pads? yet no truck driver humor about maxi mouse pads? hmmm grow up losers.
@jackybuzz grow up and stop dreaming about that sex change operation for once. You have tampons on the brain… iPad is a computer tablet.
OOO… Your hair cut is really cute on you! : ]
i just don’t like the name of it.. iPad.. pads.. iPads.. pads.. *sigh*

why is everyone complaining about flash? you know that youtube is dumping flash and switching to some other thing, other websites will do the same and there will no need for flash and no reason for someone for not to buy one because of flash issues. i dunno it just feels weird when you have a laptop and an iphone to get this type of product. this was overhyped way too much IMO. this product i think is for certain ppl who need this type of device.
This would also solve the Flash compatibility issue with Safari. I find that to be a little annoying at times.
I think that having such a portable, touchscreen, compatible, all in one device would be a much better option than the mac book air too!
In a nutshell I would like it to be developed a little more as I’m sure they’re that Apple are already working on some new and improved features.
To start off, I love everything about Apple! Great products, reliability, marketing, design and much more. Though I’ve learned to always buy something which is not first gen.
The next step as Chris said is to build in a camera, I would rather that it had a USB port and compatibility with any software released for the macs computers. A mac netbook type device. In time, I see it to be possible.
