Lame?

"Juju or Ju-Ju is a word of West African origin, derived from the French joujou (toy) [1], that refers to the supernatural power ascribed to an object; or fetish." (from wikipedia)

if that was the inspiration for name, I say not lame at all; creative, even.

If this thing can run Win7, I'm not exactly sure what the company is thinking. Do they really think this will sell better as a one function internet browsing device than a full featured OS?

They are thinking that shipping it with Windows 7 would cost a ton of money and kill sales because they would have to pass the cost to buyers.

I like the larger size over the iPad since one use I have planned for it is showing a photography portfolio in certain situations.]]>Mar 11th 2010 7:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/11/joojoo-hits-the-fcc-reveals-nvidia-ion-3g-card/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/11/joojoo-hits-the-fcc-reveals-nvidia-ion-3g-card/Mar 11th 2010 8:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/11/joojoo-hits-the-fcc-reveals-nvidia-ion-3g-card/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/11/joojoo-hits-the-fcc-reveals-nvidia-ion-3g-card/Mar 11th 2010 8:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/11/joojoo-hits-the-fcc-reveals-nvidia-ion-3g-card/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/11/joojoo-hits-the-fcc-reveals-nvidia-ion-3g-card/I think anything that really NEEDS windows (excel, photoshop etc) is really going to need a keyboard and mouse to get any REAL work done.

Design... yes. It's a tablet. Size... the JooJoo is freakin' huge!

As for people buying it... the JooJoo will have to be in stores for people to see it and get their hands on it. But, Apple gets plenty of foot traffic in Apple Stores and in Best Buy as it is. And... TV commercials.

Side by side... the JooJoo is bigger... is that a better value overall? But if you can get an iPad for $499 too... the JooJoo is gonna be a tough sell. I can't wait to hear the sales pitch to make the *average* person choose the JooJoo over the iPad.]]>Mar 11th 2010 5:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/11/joojoo-hits-the-fcc-reveals-nvidia-ion-3g-card/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/11/joojoo-hits-the-fcc-reveals-nvidia-ion-3g-card/
Simple enough, fire up Safari and show them all the websites you can't use, so that Apple can keep charging for otherwise free flash games. ]]>Mar 11th 2010 5:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/11/joojoo-hits-the-fcc-reveals-nvidia-ion-3g-card/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/11/joojoo-hits-the-fcc-reveals-nvidia-ion-3g-card/Mar 11th 2010 7:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/11/joojoo-hits-the-fcc-reveals-nvidia-ion-3g-card/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/11/joojoo-hits-the-fcc-reveals-nvidia-ion-3g-card/Mar 11th 2010 8:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/11/joojoo-hits-the-fcc-reveals-nvidia-ion-3g-card/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/11/joojoo-hits-the-fcc-reveals-nvidia-ion-3g-card/
Wow, is it just me or is Apple's App culture actually making people stupid?

"There won't be an app store, nor any games, nor a bookstore, nor any way to buy music or video on it."

I'll do the same thing I've always done. Go to amazon and download music or videos, download books from any of the online e-book stores.

I can play all the same games, but since they're flash I don't have to pay for them.

I don't need an App store, I can use the whole web. not the sterilized garden Lord Jobs allows.

I doubt I'll buy this, it doesn't really have the power I'm looking for. But If I did it would probably end up running Windows 7. ]]>Mar 11th 2010 9:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/11/joojoo-hits-the-fcc-reveals-nvidia-ion-3g-card/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/11/joojoo-hits-the-fcc-reveals-nvidia-ion-3g-card/Mar 11th 2010 10:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/11/joojoo-hits-the-fcc-reveals-nvidia-ion-3g-card/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/11/joojoo-hits-the-fcc-reveals-nvidia-ion-3g-card/
I guess you answered my first question.

"And save them on the 4GB internal storage?"
As opposed to the whopping 16GB i'd get with an iPad.
Let's see, I could use the USB port to save to a thumb drive, or an external HDD, I could get real wild and upgrade the SSD to 64GB and still pay less than the 64GB iPad costs.
Or I could just use the actual browser at Hulu or Crackle, or Netflix even.

"Apps are useful to have you know."
No, they're not. Apps are what you get when you're not allowed to use real programs.
Show me one App who's functionality I can't get with a web app, or linux, or windows program, often times for free.

"Good luck with the mouse over on a touchscreen."
Plenty of flash games work just fine with a touchscreen.
For those that don't, again, this thing has USB I could use a mouse, or KB, or anything else I can find the drivers for. ]]>Mar 12th 2010 12:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/11/joojoo-hits-the-fcc-reveals-nvidia-ion-3g-card/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/11/joojoo-hits-the-fcc-reveals-nvidia-ion-3g-card/
"...but this thing is way more limited."

No, it's not. If you truly cannot grasp that, you are the perfect Apple customer.

Some people like options, some people like being told what to do.
You're obviously the latter. ]]>Mar 12th 2010 1:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/11/joojoo-hits-the-fcc-reveals-nvidia-ion-3g-card/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/11/joojoo-hits-the-fcc-reveals-nvidia-ion-3g-card/
