So am I Reyes.

Always ignored the netbook craze and the like, but a nice slim wi-fi tablet PC will do very nicely.

Is there any link for the press conference?

Am I the only person who couldn't really give a **? Will probably be yet another substandard overpriced product from Apple that sells on hype alone.

Will look pretty though.

loads have people have had tablets for ages. prob is they ran windows, which sucks (even more) in tablet version and were essentially a laptop with a twisted round screen.

this is different.

apple make great products for people who like playing with pointless features all day and who absolutely insist on paying twice the price for no other reason than to show off. very popular with children, chavs and adults who like to think they are "down with the kids"

price is a bit like value on here - different to most people.

i've got a going on 4yo macbook, that yes, cost me 800 quid, but has never gone wrong, has never needed a re-install, never needed 16 different AV/security apps/driver updates - it's just worked.
that's the 300 extra covered in my eyes.

anyway, each to their own, this thread is about this tablet thingybob - whatever and however much it is
By:
Jimbo747
When: 27 Jan 10 16:33
Yup. Chavs can afford 3 things in life. Iphones, 50" plasma TV's and cider.

The original iphone behind all the hype is crap. Nice touchy screen, but compared to the competition back then it was no where near as good. If they released the 3rd gen one now back then, it would have been great.
The apple mac pro laptop (the plastic chasis one before aluminium). Crap hinges. Crap keyboard. Crap spec for price, and not as reliable or well built as the turtle neck wearing bods would have you believe.

Just shows how good the Apple PR machine is though. And yes, I have (and do) use apple stuff. Perhaps I'm resistant to hypnosis.

youd be surprised what chavs can afford. go in the poorest council estates in the country and whilst the kids are fat as fook being fed on iceland frozen *****and fish fingers and look like they havent had a wash in 5 years theyve still got a ps3 or xbox hooked up to a massive tv.

yeah but they are hookey/counterfeit as a rule - how many chavs have imacs?

They can 'afford' those things because of state handouts and easily obtainable credit.
