Problem is people keep trying to emulate real life musical instruments.]]>Jun 10th 2010 11:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/10/franz-ks-itar-transforms-your-ipad-into-a-keytar-puts-shame-in/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/10/franz-ks-itar-transforms-your-ipad-into-a-keytar-puts-shame-in/
This is really lame. The dude needs to lose the fake deep voice.

"I guess you can say that we're a sucker for a ridiculous video..."

No one said it yet, but I guess I'll say it...
"Yes you are a sucker for ridiculous videos. Especially when it involves anything 'i'. " :)

Awesome. I'm a rapper. Will you collaborate with me? I reckon we could make some excellent music together. I've written a really great rap. It starts like this:

Yeah! Yeah!
Uh-huh! Yeah!
Check it out!

It gets better, but I don't really have time to type it all here (some of the rapping bits are really fast so they take ages to type). Trust me though, this one is *really* good, especially towards the end. Also my voice is genuinely deep. Don't you just hate it when lame dudes fake a deep voice? I do. I really do. So, anyway, what do you say? With your Electronic Music and my rapping the sky's the limit!]]>Jun 10th 2010 12:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/10/franz-ks-itar-transforms-your-ipad-into-a-keytar-puts-shame-in/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/10/franz-ks-itar-transforms-your-ipad-into-a-keytar-puts-shame-in/Jun 10th 2010 1:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/10/franz-ks-itar-transforms-your-ipad-into-a-keytar-puts-shame-in/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/10/franz-ks-itar-transforms-your-ipad-into-a-keytar-puts-shame-in/
Yeah, but with real life instruments you have to know how to, I dunno, play them?

Dude...too much emotion for what is shown in this video. The man is clearly having fun. If he can afford an iPad for frivelous reasons why begrudge him? If he can't afford it, Apple products don't really depreciate than much in value so he'll get a good price for it. Win win.
