This is silly comment and useless to the OP. If you can't fathom the challenges the OP may encounter, you should just ****.
Another useless comment, the OP is talking about a device that has more in common with an iPhone than a netbook. A netbook has other means to notifiy without leaving the app your in. Apparently you don't know the difference. There is a value for the OP to have vibration.
So ...if i start a topic.."WTF: No ketchup on Ipad", it will start a conversation thread on the fact that there should be ketchup on the ipad? Are you serious about this?
The fact is and always will be that vibration is only ONLY ONLY!!!!!!! brought up as a topic because of the operating system is closely related (99% similiar) to the 3 year operating system that is in the Iphone OS and Ipod Touch OS which in fact has applications that use vibration.
The fact of the matter is, you want to bring up vibration, you need to bring up vibration FOR ALL MOBILE DEVICES. This includes laptops, netbooks and then yes, even his Ipad as well as iphones.
Apparently, you don't know the difference from what is being put on the title. As he clearly states "WTF Notice: No Vibration on the Ipad" which means he was EXPECTING vibration. You don't put WTF until you think its a bit odd. This in turn gives the OP the assumption he was expecting a GIANT IPOD TOUCH. might as well put a phone icon and just make it a large Iphone. (oh yeah thats next year).
But what i have been saying is that, the Ipad is between a laptop and portable device. Do you see other devices in a similar region, includes smaller PCs with vibrational mechanism? because if its such as interesting topic, it should then steer towards how vibration can be added into all operating devices.
Another useless quote comment and not even understanding the whole picture.
WTF NOTICE: i can't use my ipad as dinner plate.
WTF NOTICE: Ipad can't solve mysterious of life
WTF NOTICE: Ipad can't cure all deceases.
Be realistic. Seriously. Or at least change the topic title so its not a RANT and more of a suggestion.
How about? "why apple didn't implement vibration into the Ipad?"
Meh.

That said, you want to talk about the vibration issue at hand. Look as much as the OP wants if its not wanted by alot of people (I mean millions) which this would lead to more sales, it won't be implemented. I keep my ipad on silent and don't even use it for sound notification. it's not your phone, it doesn't stay with you in your pocket. If you keep it in your bag, You won't feel it unit its a larger vibration unit. More importantly, it cuts into Apple's margins and it causes other issues like battery drain.
If this was a big issue and was seriously important to alot of people are hearing impaired, then it would implemented in alot of other products and operating systems. The usage as to be huge.
Adding a simple feature like vibration brings multiple legal issues and complications to the system that would sound dumb at any common person but its there.
Sorry OP. maybe in the future.
