I don’t think that’s what he’s really saying.
#16,
No he has a point. The iPad is the finest digital picture frame money can buy.
All the sweaty emotionalism regarding Apple, both pro and con… It’s like listening to greatest hits of the ’80s.
#14 – Yup. It’s funny.
People who actually speak German must not find these so funny. Thankfully, my languages do not include German.
Oh, yeah. The iPad? Underwhelming. Only the “true believers” will buy one. I was only more disappointed by Balmer’s failure to release the Courier.
LOL So much funny!
The humor does not come from Hitler. The humor comes from the sad truth of what is being said. I own an iPhone and iPod Touch and I think the iPad is a joke.
Slightly OT: John, re Cranky Geeks. I thought “no flash” refers to “flash memory.” The iPad has no flash memory capability like SD, not no “flash animation” etc capability (& certainly not referring to a camera flash). Am I wrong?

Glaciergate
A relatively tame Hitler parody video
“As chief operating officer for the cabal of Billionaires who control the global warming scam, Hitler quickly realizes the long range implications of “Glaciergate”.”
So, I guess if you make a bigger iPod Touch that you end up with a MaxiPad.
Sad. Everyone was hoping for a Mac tablet. What a wasted opportunity. Apple aimed too low with this one. Maybe they will correct it in the near future.
I read paperbacks but isn’t the Ipad VERY MUCH BETTER than the Kindle for only $10 more?
Why not complain it doesn’t make cappuccino?
#20 What bubble? Did anybody here thought you weren’t a macfan?
Bobbo (I’m never gonna grow up) – Of course, I haven’t seen or used the IchaPod but the Kindle will be a much better read since reflective screens are much kinder to the eyes than transmissive screens. Plus, they claim it has only ten hours battery life which, of course will probably end up closer to five or six. I don’t have a Kindle either but they say it’s nice and light and easy to hold in one hand whereas the Pad is pretty heavy. I have to say, I’m pretty disappointed. I’m not an Apple fan but I really do want something better than a netbook but lesser than notebook for my travels. I was really expecting something new from Apple. Instead, you got a larger Touch. Still locked into Apple apps. Still locked into AT&T but NO PHONE??? No camera. I predict failure.
Netbook.
$300
160GB Hard Drive
Real Keyboard
Spare / replaceable battery
Mutitasking Operating system
Multiple USB Ports
Runs Skype
Runs wireless
Runs iTunes
Runs any page in the Internet
Runs 1000′s of real programs
Runs Kindle software
Runs cellular wireless on the provider of your choice
Aside from the iPhone, most Mac products make me think of the image of a clown on bicycle with training wheels.
Oh… anf I forgot on #34 above…
Netbook.
Runs Netflix
Has video camera
Had VGA output for large monitor (as long as monitor isn’t Apple with it’s Displayport only policy)
Runs Boxee
Reverse the list and you get a list of essential stuff that the iPad does not support.
The one in which Hitler responds to Dvorak Uncensored is still in the edit bay…
#35 mac may support 10% on what’s on your list. Remember, if god Steve cannot control its development, it won’t be on anything mac.
iPAD is a great product and a good price but lack of Flash support is a huge disappointment.
#34 you seem like a Fry’s customer. iPAD buyers look for ease of use, access to iTunes for consumption applications and a slick formfactor.
Buyers don’t care if it lacks eSATA support or runs Lotus Notes.
28 RBG No, it actually is Flash video that the iPad doesn’t run. On the surface, that makes no sense given its ubiquitous popularity.

That is an absolutely HILARIOUS video!! I was laughing so hard my wife rushed upstairs – certain I was having a heart attack. I kept trying to hit the pause button to catch my breath, but I would see the next line and just LOSE IT again.
