Well, the mysterious Apple Tablet has finally been unveiled.
...and is a giant iPod touch. With no Flash. Or Multitasking.
Don't use iTunes, but the inclusion of ebooks is kind of cool though. Jobs is actively trolling his fanbase, and proud of it.
iPad?

Re: iPad?
Give it a week or two on the market and itll become useful. A $500 tablet pc running linux or OSX could be useful. If it can read pdfs naively it might be useful for hardcore RPGers.

Another overpriced, underperfoming product from Apple. *yawn*

Re: iPad?
Still no flash? Then what's the point? Right now it's just an oversized iPod touch. Oh, wait, a hacked iPhone can do flash videos, and read ebooks. So, the iPad is already behind the iPod touch/iPhone.

Charging someone to use flash is like charging someone to breathe air. It's not funny anymore apple, I'm serious.nickfil wrote:well... apple wants you to pay for flash games in itunes. They can't just be giving that shit away for free.
