      It's not exactly a phone is it.

      When you think of the way more and more people are communicating by voice over the net, it makes sense for it to not be a phone. Plus it's too big to be one anyway isn't it.

      Youse will need one of these, now that youse have ruined your computers with JIZZ!

      Have a bit of respect.  ;)

      You've got more chance of selling sh*t than selling your body.

      I still don't want one. I'll just have a go of Kenny's.

      I love all of apple's stuff. They just have a better approach to creating cool equipment than any other electronics company.
      Looks like an amazing piece of equipment and if i didn't already have a laptop i'd definitely think about buying one.
      $499 will probably translate to about £399 i reckon.
      Just because of the way you sit with a laptop naturally, it doesn't quite look as comfortable to use.
      I'm still saving to replace my iphone with the 3GS, think it will be more useful than the ipad.

      Still, breaktaking gadget.  :o

      The pound isn't that weak. Probably about £310.

      499 US$ = 309.093162 UK£

      Close enough.

      Just see this on GMTV. They say it will retail for about £350. Not bad at all, it looks awesome!!
      Now that I've seen it in motion, I soooooo want one!

      While it looks catchy, and i do want one...

      People were being placed on a waiting list before they even knew what it was going to be! That's insane. They just heard Apple are releasing a new product and said 'I want it'.

      With the exchange rate looking good, i might pounce early before it goes back up.

      Not worth it. IMO might as well buy a low-end laptop and you're ready to go. My laptop costs just 500 pounds, is not a tablet, has 4GB ram.

      What's the point if it when you have an iPhone, its just like the same thing just that its a 3x bigger.

      If i had to choose between an iPhone, iPad or iTouch, I'll take the iPhone definitely.

      I know the literal translation is about £310 but apple stuff is never worth exactly the same in £ and $. When u look at the prices of ipods, macbooks, iphone etc and compare the prices from the US site to the UK site, we in the UK end up paying more. That's why alot of people buy an ipod when they go the US, with the exchange rate it works out cheaper.

      e.g.

      macbook air UK price : £1,174 - converts to $1,908 ( so that should be the price on the US site)
      It's actually only $1,499 on  the US site which is about £922 (about £150 cheaper for yanks

      Queue someone on the train with one of these yelling " HELLO... IM ON THE TRAIN"
      It looks like what the iphone might have looked in the 80s before the cooler small version was made...
      Although I do appreciate this is just a keypadless laptop.. I like my keypad

      As the guy on the radio said, it looks like an iphone on steriods. Am i the only person not interested in getting an iphone? I must be the most old-fashioned person out- i am sorted with my Sony Ericsson K800i ;D i like using mates iphones but i think they would piss me of if i owned one.

      :lmao:

      Looks good like but I might wait for everyone to buy one and wait for the MacBook prices to come down a touch. ;)

      My iPhone will do for the time being.

      Get a netbook. Your screen won't be full of fingerprints and you won't have to decide between drawing your knees up to your chest to balance it on something, or get curvature of the spine hunching over it! Oh, and it will be 150 quid cheaper.

      Common sense? There's an app for that.

      Looks like an iPhone, for giants, without the phone or camera.

      I bet they're selling it with a prentious little bag as well.

      This is just like that mouse that they brought out - overpriced, useless tat.
