What's your opinion?

http://www.apple.com/ipad/

I'd rather just get the Wifi only one, but there is no way I can afford one. (Which is why people are having contests for it on Twitter)

That would be cool to have!
I already saw it because my internet opens to the Apple homepage so I looked at it.
I may save up enough money and buy one. They are pretty for cheap for what you get!

What are the dimensions?
I don't really want one, they look kind of cool though.

Mac has once again made something 'amazing':
-it doesn't even have flash. you can't consider it better than a laptop if it leaves out a lot of plugins.
-it is pretty useless. if you have a computer, do not bother getting it.

Save yourself ;D

What I had first heard was that it would also have the features of being a tablet. I don't see why Apple couldn't have done this, but I don't see anything, yet, listed about it on the site. That was the main reason that I had wanted it at first, especially if it comes with all of this. If it doesn't, then I probably won't get it. It is still pretty awesome though.

It is all lies. :P
Why would anyone want a bigger version of an ipod touch. And the pricing is very unfair in my opinion.

Sorry. I am a big apple hater :D

Yeah, it is for people who like to go on the computer when they are traveling and stuff. It is also for people who need a mini thing that they can take out and check their e-mail and go on the internet.

Or you could get a netbook or a laptop... :)

Fun Fact: When you copy and paste on a mac, you are just creating a shortcut.

Well it is a touch screen though.
Fun fact: It is way better then a netbook and is touch screen.

Looks like a huge e-book reader like the Kindle or Nook or some shiz

Look at the Specs and you can tell it will be an epic fail. Waste of money.

The today but I'll wait until touch laptops come out.

I was hoping for some more OSX-style interfacing, seeming as I already own an iPod touch 2g, but in traditional Apple style, they don't do PC's or Laptops for under $500.

And the other shame, is that the UK Apple web-page doesn't even show any notes of the iPad release, so we'll probably have to wait until August.

The name is ridiculous. And the fact that it's touch screen doesn't mean anything. I like my buttons just fine.
That's all I can think of right now.

Actually it looks exactly like the iPhone/iPod Touch, except it is a bit bigger. ;D

Maybe that's because it is a bigger iPhone for people who hate the fact that it fits in their pocket.

Yeah. It's a fail really. They should have just gone for the design below.

Yeah. It reminds me more of a photo frame than a tablet. But I think the competition will win this one.
