More like "The iPad does The Shimmy".. :)
@Ysleiro
iRobot is becoming a reality!
Ah!
@Failbait LOL
@Ysleiro
iPad SHUFFLE? *rimshot*
@RogueGenius
Lol! Bravo
@Ysleiro
but will it fetch me a beer? guess i'll wait for v2.0
Now if only it could walk out the Apple store into my hands...
@forrealdood If that did happen, would it be considered shoplifting or kidnapping?
@imikedaman Defecting
@forrealdood
iPadopting
i lol'd. cute eyes.
@chiefy Agreed :D
@Kanpai888
They jiggled with the shimmy!
@chiefy
Looks like good 'ol Xeyes/iEyes.
Very cool. Now, can someone make the iPad wok?
@Bosco
City Wok?
@H264 Shity Wok?
@Bosco Manchu Wok
@geekthree
Damn Mongolians! Always tearing down my shitty wall!
@Bosco It has to go through City Airlines first.
Isn't walking when you move in a certain direction?
These guys, while cute, just turn back and forth, on the same spot...
Sure, you have to jailbreak it now, but by 2011 this will be a standard feature.
@huntmol
Actually, it looks like it's a normal app that talks to the motor circuit through the headphone jack.
+1 anyway.
People are dumb.
Oh my god it's becoming self-aware. We're all doomed!
Why is this news?
Because its an Ipad?
Ahhh Engadget.com
Closing my evo vs iphone and replacing it with this?!?!?!!?
THIS IS MADNESS!!!
@suprizechainsaw guess what, iPhone won.
And the poll was reopened.
@Vdek Why would you automatically think that I wanted evo to win?
@suprizechainsaw Chill out dude, U act like trolling engadget is ur life, they already explained about the evo vs. iPhone post, and this is a story to make u chuckle nothing more nothing less stop hating and let it be.
@creezy8188 Lol and your telling me to chill out.
I was making a little fun because I think the article was dumb.
Laugh a little "dude".
@suprizechainsaw Caues the guy made a freakin device walk haha, if this was an eve you would not say this
@suprizechainsaw
No need to backtrack so quickly. Your comment wasn't fun, it was boring. It's the same comment that is posted over and over whenever Engadget cover Apple.
People just can't STFU, they think they have to have an opinion on everything. The reality is WGAF what some 12 year old who just got his first cell phone thinks
@pukerocket Wow I happen to like the new Iphone.
Well anyways I'm not gonna argue with you guys because obviously I'm just gonna explain myself over and over and say I was kidding.
So I will leave this here.

@suprizechainsaw
The fact is you did start it.
See you later, man
@pukerocket Ya and you guys got so angry over nothing.LOL :P
@suprizechainsaw
If your goal was to humorously imitate a troll, no one laughed, and the net result is you being labeled a troll.
I suggest using actual, non-derivative humor next time (this probably applies to 90% of people making jokes here).
@suprizechainsaw MADNESS? THIS IS SPARTAAA!
@suprizechainsaw
I agree. Why is this news? It is absolutely only because its an apple product. Why the eff does anybody want to see a 'walking' robot device that doesn't actually 'walk'?
@H4X0R HAHAHAAHAH finally
I have been waiting for you all my life !!
@H4X0R pssht more like...
MADNESS!!? THIS IS ENGAAAADGET!!!
And then kick the post clean over to TUAW where it really belongs, anyway. ;)
You just watch... Steve-O Jobs will unveil this as a new "magical" feature when he announces the next iPad!
@TheTabe
And he's gonna wear a pair of jeans and black half-turtleneck long sleeve shirt while he does it...
@TheTabe Joke was ehhhh, coulda been better lol
@creezy8188
Hey, I never said I was gonna quit my day job! ;)
@TheTabe
Please don't.
If you're gonna try to be funny, try to be a bit original; the 'magical' thing and the turtle neck thing have been done. And done. And done. And done. And done. And done. And done. And done. And done. And done. And done. And done. And done. And done. And done. And done. And done. And done. And done. And done. And done. And done.
@pukerocket
Sorry, already done... Good thing I don't really care what you think, huh? Regardless of how many times it's been done, it's true.
Thanks for saying "please" though, it's very polite.
@TheTabe
But it just shows your distinct lack of imagination. I'm trying to help make you look good here, kid.
But you're just letting yourself down.
@pukerocket
Thanks for your concern, kid, but I'm not really concerned. Sorry that it bothers you so much. I'll pass my next comments by you first to make sure they qualify as imaginative and original enough for you.
Letting myself down? I won't be losing any sleep over it...
@pukerocket
You don't think my post is funny, GOT IT. But you seem to be missing the fact that - I. Don't. Care. What. You. Think. What part of that don't you get? You made your point, now move on and resume with your judging of the quality of others' comments... How about you post some awesome jokes to show me how it's done? That would really stick it to me, huh?!
In your own immortal words (from one of your replies to someone else's post):
"People just can't STFU, they think they have to have an opinion on everything..."
I know, right?
@TheTabe
You know, I'm actually kind of flattered that you care so much about the comedic value of my comment. Thank you.
And if I ever do decide that I want to be a comedian in the future you will be the first person on my list to turn to for material.
