the article said ipads present a "security issue" i dont get it

[acarmelo1]

lolzzz ipad sucks

[dbnmln]

smartphones present a security risk, but i guess the "smart" part of the smartphone makes them ok.

[stealthyburrito]

every player has an ipad in his locker? the perks of being a yankee are endless.

i bet u 100 bucks u haven't held one and played with one for any good amount of time..

i said it once and i will say it again.. the ipad will change the world.. its not a big iphone.. the iphone is a small ipad..

we have three of them in our house and i love it..

[tltaylor89]

They are banned because they are data hogs

[jjgold]

Just use iPhone then

[tltaylor89]

iPhone is also data hog AT&T can't keep up with the datat demand.

[Fishhead]

[jjgold]

On average $400-$500

For the same reason a glass beer bottle is a security issue. Ever got hit in the head with either?

[blackbeSSt]

fuk the ipad. netbook and aircard any day over that shitty ipad.

and what a stupid way to end an article:

"An Apple commercial for iPad features the slogan that it “goes anywhere.” Last week, a driver practicing for the Indianapolis 500 checked one while his car was idle."

uhh, again so does my netbook and aircard there appletards

that is true. although some guy would have to be a complete moron to use his $500 ipad as a weapon actually nevermind b/c new york city has tons of people like that

It's not just that. A terrorist might remove all the gear in it and replace it with explosives and sneak it in. It's just too balky.

[JUST A MAN]

They did it because you can see what the other person is doing. Screen is big.

Surfing for porn, cursing. This would cause trouble.

[OverUnder]

Yeah its the terrorists that ruined this one, but I am sorry that people will have to watch the baseball game instead of updating their twitters or facebooks or whatever during the game. Man what a shame.

i will take an ipad over any portable PC device period.. i don't care if its a top of the line laptop.. i hate pc's.. switched over 10 years ago.. and haven't looked back yet..

people who bitch about apple , can't afford them and like to pirate absolutely everything..

if you want a sexy machine that works better then any pc.. then apple is for you..

if i gave any of you a wifi/3g ipad for a week. i promise not a single one of your would give it back after using it for a week..

ipad will become an industry standard for tablets.. and will become a very important tool in several industry specific tasks..

WOW, what a raving review!!!

[Unicorn7]

it makes me sick how people over and unnecessarily use cell phones

every damn punk in town is on the phone at the games and not one conversation is worth 50 cents

every girl I know 11-19 has a phone attached to her hand I feel like grabbin em and smashing gainst the wall

[LostBankroll]

Im a PC but I agree. THe iPad is going to be very widely used in the years to come. Theyll get cheaper and better too. Why cary a 8-10 pound laptop when you can cary something slight yet as powerfull as a laptop? I want one bad but ill wait it out untill newer models arrive.

think of a doctor working in an ER.. and has he moves from patient to patient there files are updated on his ipad.. or a stock broker in the pits.. needing info or communication with his house.. or how about real estate agents showing off properties and being able to walk through the floor plans and show the clients other potentials in the area before getting there..

think of schools and the learning games and interaction children will now have..

[kmarinouofm]

WOW, what a raving review!!!

you are probably right fishhead.. i live with two apple corporate employees and and one of them i lived with for 3 years in college..i just been hooked on apple since 2000 when i got my first mac book as a freshman

It's amazing how much has Apple brainwashed people into buying every gadget they come up with. And then you wonder why you don't see people sitting at a coffee shop sipping coffee and having a conversation between them or people going to the baseball game and actually watching the game with friends drinking beer and having fun without holding gadgets the size of oversized books.

i do agree that people have lost touch with personal relationships

I want an ipad....is there like a monthly data cost involved too?

[freeVICK]

if you get the 3g ipad, theres a monthly charge of about $30

[dbnmln]

how technology has changed us all.

[Dad]

Just use iPhone then

You don't see too many 64 GB iPhones around, though. That's a lot of porn that you can leech off of the laptops from the players' locker rooms.

[suckerforparlays]

Netbooks are complete garbage waste of trash computers

two plans one for 15 and one for 30.. 30 is unlimited.. i currently have the one for 15 because even with surfing outside my house its plenty.. i dont download apps and send big files off my email on the ipad as of yet.. that shit i just do off my computer or off the ipad while on my wireless at home.. or a free wireless somewhere..

i haven't even tried to teather my ipad yet.. but i should try it out today to see how it goes..
