I have to think the rankings on the comments could look VERY different indeed if iPadget would let IE users participate in the site.

I wonder if they are violating some US web access law yet?

Remember? When iPod touch was release, and people were disappointed 'coz it has no camera and a GPS. Reason? If Apple put those things, the only difference between it, and the iPhone is the 'Call/SMS capability' . Obviously, it'll hurt the sales of the iPhone.

Seriously, Apple is just repeating the history. Hopefully, the users will notice it.

The iPod touch cant really cannibalize the iPhone for 1 big reason, THE PHONE. If people want a phone they will buy the phone. If anything the iPhone is cannibalizing the touch. Im not going to skip an iPhone and buy a touch cause it has a camera if im in the market for a phone. Im going to buy the one with everything included. The reason why Apple didnt add all the goods on the iPad 1, IS MONEY AND PROFIT. If everything is on the first iPad what will make you buy it a second time. Take a survey and see how many people have bought 2 iPod touches because the 2G is so much better than the first. I know I bought both. Now Apple has a lot of room for improvement to make you buy the iPad twice. Unless people are smart enough not to buy it the first time.]]>Jan 31st 2010 11:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/apple-ipad-the-definitive-guide-so-far/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/apple-ipad-the-definitive-guide-so-far/Feb 4th 2010 5:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/apple-ipad-the-definitive-guide-so-far/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/apple-ipad-the-definitive-guide-so-far/Feb 14th 2010 5:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/apple-ipad-the-definitive-guide-so-far/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/apple-ipad-the-definitive-guide-so-far/never... this is apple, probably so you would put a mobile broadband card in there... lol]]>Feb 17th 2010 7:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/apple-ipad-the-definitive-guide-so-far/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/apple-ipad-the-definitive-guide-so-far/an integrated sd lot would have been nice. while were at it where is the webcam and dare i say usb ports.]]>Feb 23rd 2010 4:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/apple-ipad-the-definitive-guide-so-far/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/apple-ipad-the-definitive-guide-so-far/
Wait, so what you are saying is that we should STFU and BUY something that should come standard? I mean it's a standard on every laptop, netbook, lunch box sold on the market... yet Apple wants you to purchase a dongle just to do something that could have easily been included?

Fuck that, I will wait for the HP Slate, something that will actually display the internet fully in all of it's correct fashion. So while you are busy renting last weeks episode of Lost on iTunes, I will be watching it for free on Hulu, then playing Flash games and so on.

Enjoy your crippled giant iPod Touch.]]>Mar 19th 2010 3:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/apple-ipad-the-definitive-guide-so-far/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/apple-ipad-the-definitive-guide-so-far/
are you kidding? its not about "doing more research" , and buying somestupid fucking add on dongle, @the jugheads point was that something like this should have it built in. anyone knows you can buy a usb dongle to about anything, get real fan boy]]>Mar 20th 2010 2:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/apple-ipad-the-definitive-guide-so-far/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/apple-ipad-the-definitive-guide-so-far/
think about dorks. Apple is business...they want sustainable profit. they could produce a product with the latest of the latest tech, SD, USB 3, AMOLED, 3D, etc...but they really dont have the incentive too. Have you noticed how they have over 200,000 pre-orders for the same thing you all are bitching about?

Then, in the next gen, they can just add SD card reader, more storage...or ________ and then whoever was waiting for that next thing will buy it, along with the others who were just waiting to upgrade.

I hate dongles more than anything, but I know Jobs has been and will continue to push for a wireless world and we should all keep that in mind and be mad, but somewhat grateful that Apple at least prods technological progression.
