He’s in a chair because that’s how you can type two-handed on a larger device.
But yes it will sell VERY well—and more importantly, it’s a necessary step toward even better things to come. Just like the first iPhone or the first Mac. They were great, but what was really great came later as they evolved.
I want Macbook Pro updates...Wahhhhhhhh!
That wouldn’t have made any sense at today’s event—so don’t be discouraged that they weren’t mentioned. They’re still coming.
don't harsh my buzz
agreed. no need to be grumpy here.
i am a little less than blown away by the ipad. and that is why i want to watch this keynote. often, i don't "get it" until i see the whole presentation. the "reality distortion field" if you will.
at any rate, don't knock the pleasure that some of us get from watching apple products unveiled.

I agree.
I think that "us" have been so spoiled with Apple that we don't know good when we see it. If Apple released this in 2006 and then "shrunk" it with a phone in it...
I just won a LG Eve mobile phone with the Android OS. I can't believe how much better the OS is on my original iPod compared to this brand new phone. We, truly, have been spoiled.

How do they make the smoke appear when the numbers drop? Can I do that now or do I have to wait for the next iWork?
Boring
This is just opium for the ppl. Can't see one reason to buy this when U can have an iphone and a proper laptop.
Too bad they didn't upgrade Macbook Pro
Apple has to focus on computers, not gadgets !!

I want to play online poker on my portable device. As long as the only software available for it has to come from the App store, there will be none of that.
This is the downside of the tight control Steve desires over the platform. Apple can't be seen to abet online gambling, so we
gets none. With an open platform, there's no problem.

This is my thought:
If this iPad carries the browser profile of the iPhone OS, then this is a disaster. Many sites are programmed to offer a iPhone friendly "lite" version of their site and some don't give options to access the full version. So let's see, I am expected to pay $499 for a low memory wifi laced device that does not handle Netflix or browser based flash, when I can buy a HP Mini 311 with Windows 7, Webcam/mic, NVidia ION 1080p HD chipset and HDMI for connection to a HDTV all for $429 shipped? And if HP releases their Windows 7 "slate" device for $500 then Apple will take huge flack over that.
Yes I would buy an iPad with 32GB for $249 but the high price for what you get in the iPad is going to hurt it. If it was priced correctly then it would be ok.
I mean at least they could have placed a variant of OSX on there, for sure they could have slapped 10.1 on that equipment if Snow Leopard is too demanding for the device.
I have a feeling Apple has another version of this device with multitasking (software update maybe) and video iChat.
In fact I am willing to bet they have a fill fledge Mac waiting for a June introduction that delivers what everyone was looking for. I think they need to strategically get all the suckers (HP?) out of the way with copycat devices then they will crush everyone with the OSX tablet.
The iPad will evolve for sure, but early buyers are about to get dissed.

Anyone know how to grab the link directly to the large video file, so I can download it and watch it on my AppleTV?
It's a shame it's on the Web site, but not the Podcast yet.

Grrr, the stream doesn't work. Tried it at work and just tried it at home, both stop playing after 2 or 3 seconds. Then it buffers for like a minute. Why don't they just provide a damn download link.
The direct link downloads a tiny file that is just meta data for the stream, so that is worthless.

Your thought is dumb because web site designers need to be smarter than that.
if true that would suck
tho in websites they look for strings witch this will have a different string
also there is a thing if you jailbreak witch fixes that
what do you mean there still coming? what in june? lol thats it, if they didnt announce them today then we have about 6 more months for macbook pro updates....i was waiting for a macbook pro for over 4 months for the updates...ya a waste of time, but i
m finnaly going to pick one up this weeks some time...Best part of the video is when Jobs announces AT&T data. All the verizon fanboys yesterday were wanting it so bad, tonight their talking a bunch of crap about it. It's no surprise, it is exactly like all the rumors stated. They know now verizon is on brink of bankruptcy.
AFAIK, FCC authorization is public knowledge, and detailed. Apple wouldn't file for authorization before they announced the product. This is exactly what they did with the iPhone
They will release them when they are ready, just like all the recent Mac updates...
Special events are saved for new products these days.
Does anyone have a direct download of the keynotes?
Quicktime streams are epic fails. At least from Australia they are, you get choppy audio and maybe 1 jumbled frame update every 10 seconds - and that's with the low bandwidth stream from a 20mbit connection!
Sigh. Why can't apple just use flash or HTML5 video like everyone else.

well i just finished watching the keynote. i was surprised i could actually watch it without lag this soon. i'm very excited about the iPad! can't wait to see it in stores!
Currently, iPad is just a bigger and more powerful iPod Touch with 3G option. Experience on iPad and iPod Touch are quite similar. No multitasking is a big disappointment on this such a powerful device but it might possible on future OS update.
Why multitasking so matter? Beside playing music background, iChat/Messenger are need this feature very much. I just don't wanna keep quit current apps (Safari or Quicktime) to open messenger apps for reply after received notification and then close the messenger and reopen former apps. I think all users are very annoying for this as me. I don't think RAM or battery is an issue of blocking this feature but it just remind me Apple failed to brought copy/paste before OS 3.0.
I'm not using eBook so I can't found another selling point for me to made a purchase since I have an 3GS and late 2008 Macbook.
Lastly, can anyone tell me what made Mr. Steve Jobs so impressive on this iPad.

What's actually really disappointing for me is that the display still has this huge black frame around it. Would be so much nicer if it was borderless. But that's just me. It just sort of looks old already.
There's also no camera which is a shame. Because if it was ichat capable then a lot of people wouldn't need much else. This will no doubt be a winner because you can just have one of these at home to browse, email and look at photos and youtube. Let's face it, a huge number of people don't do much with their computer gear. It saves you the trip to the desk when you're having one of these sitting on the kitchen table.
It's not perfect but it's pretty good for a first try.
Now back into my corner waiting for the stream to start working...
