I thought we were past that saga already...sigh. You wouldn't take my compensation, and I thought we were cool. (so we're not cool :( ?!)
HAHA! for that reply, we are cool again ;)

Hey, I hear you'll be around in a few weeks time. Maybe you'll be able to turn that 'figuratively' into 'actually' then.
yeh man, im sure that can be arranged :D

You dam skippy!! I hope it is ok too. I will be getting one soon as there available for pre order or order!
HA! hopefully the prices will come down enough to force US people to buy from us and ship them over? ;)

This is a decidedly Australian dominated thread, isn't it?

Of course, they can get a discount if they want shipment via Kangaroo. I hear their pockets are actually big enough to hold an iPad.

oh at least! mac mini, done, iphone, done, ipad, done. GPS real time tracking!

Pics or it didn't happen!
HEH. coming right up!

that's what she said
HAHAHA! you guise... :rolleyes:
 
its getting close.
You would think other companies would catch on and do similar events like this...
but they spread out the debut and the actual public release so far apart, the excitement is gone!
i still cant believe there hasnt been any REAL leaks yet...besides the cases and that mock up at CES.
i guess they learned from the iphone 4 ordeal.
 
I am excited....this will be my first Ipad...i've been waiting for gen2.

I tried the 'mini laptop' route and they just didn't catch it. I travel often for work and have to have a work laptop with me so the ipad will be my personal device and i'm very much looking forward to having it.
 
After having the iPad for more than 8 months, the novelty have wore off.
Here's the reason --> Why I don't need the iPad 2...

The MBA and iPad are two different kind of products, and serve different purposes. If that's your personal preference, good for you. I see you just bought the iPad as a toy, so I guess you wasted your money. if you just knew all the things you can do with your iPad, you may think differently.
Anyways, have fun with your MBA, I like them too, too bad don't have built-in 3G, touch-screen and push notification just yet.
 
One question:
Will this be an event like the ones that Steve Jobs does infront of a large audience with lots of cheering etc. etc

Or will it just be released on the website so eveyrone can see?

SJ wont be there, if it were to be a media event. i was under the impression that it was going to be streamed live.

It'll be an event broadcast over their website (as before and with a crowd in attendance) and it's not likely that Steve will be doing the presentation as he's off on medical leave.
 
You bet I am excited!!! :D :D :D

I just don't know yet if I will be getting one. I enjoy my current iPad and though I wish it was a little faster at times, I feel like there are no major deficiencies that make we want to run out and get the new one.

I guess it will be up to Apples marketing. If they impress me I'll get a new one. Otherwise I stick with the one I have and just enjoy that.

And I will be either playing sick or taking a vacation day tomorrow so that if necessary I can run up to the store to get one. ;)

So thoughts on if the iPad 2 will be available TOMORROW?
 
I'm excited since giving my Mom my Ipad I can't to buy another most likely will be the same size I had in my first Ipad. 64gb wifi only since I'm always in a wifi area and my Droid X is rooted which I can use or the Xoom which has hot spot capabilities. :D

I can't wait!!!!

I hope it's on sale immediately.

I've been holding off on iPad for this and I'm bursting for it!!
 
Excited? Yes.

Disappointed afterwards? Most likely.

But I will end up upgrading anyways. The tablet market is still dominated by the iPad and I think it will take the second generation of the Xoom's, Playbook's, WebOS tablets, Windows tablets to really compete with the iPad, which is probably two years away. And by then the iPad 3 should have some serious new features to get itself ahead of the competition again.
 
I am beyond excited. I've been saving money for a tablet for quite some time, and while I didn't think I was going to end up with an iPad (the Android OS seems much more fit for a tablet, imo) I still think I'm going to be extremely satisfied when I get the iPad 2.

rofl. I'm excited but at the same time not expecting apple to deliver. i sold my first ipad for almost $600 so I hope this one looks good and if it looks cool/useful enough i will get it, wifi version and hopefully the price on it isn't too high. if i can get wifi 64gb or more gigs for around $700 that would be nice.
