I don't know if it's because it's 2:30 in the morning, but that picture made me laugh uncontrollably.

I think I may be the only person on the planet who doesn't want to watch moves and browse the internet on a 5 inch screen.

You are not alone.

The iPad to me seems like something somebody would keep in their home, next to their bed or in the living-room, so they can answer mails without sitting at their desk and without some laptop on, well, your lap.

On the other hand the redundancy of having something like that is quite obvious, since if somebody answered emails with this and found out soething reall important is up they'd probably leave bed and sit at their desk anyway. Probably one of Jobs designers thought it'd be cool to have something like this since there is nothing like it around ( I wonder why that is...)

I bought my shiny Win7 500g Inspiron laptop for less than it costs to buy an iPad.

While I agree with you, I fail to see how the name comes into play; I mean, it fits it. It is a pad; kinda like a palmpad. Only two times bigger than the normal palmpad.

I'll tell you if you PM me.

but yeah the name is the stupidest thing ever.
