Breaking News: Apple introduces "IPAD"

This was a flop. As an e-reader it is amazing but to say its better than an ebook when it costs 5 times more and has half of the fteaures is embarassing. Its about as far as you can take a tablet like this

I bought some at 202.80, not as much as I was planning if they were announcing other stuff.

I played along to, got some at 203

People will forget about the IPAD after they get a look at the HP Slate.

Apple stock is flat after the announcement... tells you all you need to know. Price is good, features are poor... wait for 2011 for the real version of this device, one with a camera and real new technological improvements. Apple doesn't want to sell this tablet for $500, but can't justify a higher price for what it is right now. They should have delayed until fall and put out what they truly wanted to put out. The fact that everyone's speculation surpassed the reality of the device does not bode well for version 1.
