The Apple iPad

Yeah, I know this isn’t a tech site… nor am I an Apple fan (if you’ve heard The EDGE, you’d know). Apple has finally (after a million years) released their fabled tablet form-factor computer. It’s basically an oversized, souped up iPod Touch. It runs the same operating system (iPhone OS), uses the same app store, etc, blah blah blah. It’s got a much bigger screen, meaning things look better (duh?)… but here’s the kicker.

IT STILL CAN’T RUN FLASH ON THE INTERNET! (so good luck listening to EDGE FM on it)

I just had to say my part.. not that anyone cares. Just another over-hyped Apple product that the millions of sheep all over the world will buy into. Great… oh, and one more thing… Windows-powered ‘Slate PCs’ are coming later this year.. full PC functionality at most likely a lower price. Yup, you read it correctly.

The live Apple event is currently ongoing, but you can catch everything that going on over at Engadget… hit the link -
