I bet you're the kind of customer that apple just adores. One who lauds and praises features that are taken away, while at the same getting hard over the fact that it's an entirely closed platform that you have no control over.

Functionality is great in Windows, and 7, but do you really need or want to be delving chest deep in "Advanced" after "Advanced" after "Advanced" after "More Options" buttons just to connect to a WiFi point when you're on the go?

Damn you are right! why didn't I think of that? I mean who needs SD expansion or USB input? Or browse the web with flash? Why should I be able to just transfer photos directly to my tablet from my camera while on the go? Why would I need 1080p HDMI output anyways if it is meant for "couch surfing". I mean why play my videos on my huge 52" T.V when I can play it back on a tiny 4:3 screen on my lap? Hey and who the hell needs to run more than 1 app at once anyways? That's just opens up the door for low quality sluggishness. I trust that apple knows what apps I should be able to install. That Fart app is definitely the killer app for iPad as oppose to stupid "Lazy" Adobe Flash or Google voice. Divx movies are low quality and crap, I want MP4 all the way.

God I love the iPad.... it has shown me many things I didn't even know that I don't really need. DEFINITELY raised the bar.

I am glad iPad has raised the bar and cut away all these unnecessary lower bar, battery sapping features.

Gee, you're absolutely right. Just look at how little support was thrown behind the open platforms DOS and Windows. I know I certainly have never paid for an application or a piece of media.

Oh wait, Windows is the most successful platform *ever*.

As a Web Developer I can tell you that is changing, but your statement is only partially true. A lot of mashups use affiliate programs for the services they're enhancing.

Besides, I don't know why the ARM/tegra config should cost much more than the atom config or cost more than $500. If apple can sell the iPad for $499 then asus (or any other manufacturer) should be able to sell about the same config for less then $499.]]>Feb 10th 2010 12:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/10/asus-planning-a-killer-product-for-june-eee-pad-noise-grows/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/10/asus-planning-a-killer-product-for-june-eee-pad-noise-grows/Feb 10th 2010 2:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/10/asus-planning-a-killer-product-for-june-eee-pad-noise-grows/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/10/asus-planning-a-killer-product-for-june-eee-pad-noise-grows/
Fine, you don't need a lot of power, and use it for basic tasks like email, surfing, etc... Then I still don't get why you would want an atom over an ARM cpu. There isn't so much of a difference in price but the ARM cpu's are far more power efficient than the atom cpu's meaning a longer batterylife for the same performance. ]]>Feb 10th 2010 3:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/10/asus-planning-a-killer-product-for-june-eee-pad-noise-grows/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/10/asus-planning-a-killer-product-for-june-eee-pad-noise-grows/Feb 10th 2010 9:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/10/asus-planning-a-killer-product-for-june-eee-pad-noise-grows/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/10/asus-planning-a-killer-product-for-june-eee-pad-noise-grows/
