Uh...huh.

So. The "iPad". It looks like essentially the love child of a netbook and a Kindle, with no keyboard. And the name just practically INVITES "high tech tampon" jokes.

Someone really didn't think this one through, did they.

brb lol-ing forever

Hey, it looks kinda cool. And expensive.

And breakable.

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

Oh dear lord. They're describing it as "magical". What, like "that magical time when you become a woman"?

(I'll be here all week, try the veal, tip your servers well!)

[x-staffofone.livejournal.com]

I don't get your sense of humor. And "magical" jokes really don't suit me.

...Are you a hacker?

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

Many people don't get my sense of humor. But yeah, the "magical" references Steve Jobs is making just amuse me that much more because of the people I know and things I've seen.

I am many things, but yes, I dabble a bit in that area.

[x-staffofone.livejournal.com]

Oh, but you only need to be a little less clever. Or a little more maybe? What things is Steve Jobs saying?

...Are you a professional ninja assassin?

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

The answer is always to be MORE clever, not less. He's talking about how magical the new iPad is, and how the last time there was this much buzz about a tablet, it had commandments on it. brb, barfing.

Good lord no.

Amateur at best. ;-)

Good answer, I guess. Dude, I barely understand the iPod Touch; if it can reproduce my music, I'm fine with it. It looks shinny though.

Learn something every day.

Shiny alone is not a good reason to produce/buy something, in my opinion.

Notice the wink-y emoticon. Laurie and I study martial arts together at a dojo in the city.

[x-staffofone.livejournal.com]

But...they are shiny! Shiny is good right? Not that I would waste my money there, but damn...shiny.

I did hear something about that I while ago. I think. Sounds like some pretty badass training.

[x-dryad.livejournal.com]

I know!!! It does.

Apple needs to start making medical equipment that looks all sleek and pretty.

I suggest iSpawn: the pregnancy test.

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

iWank: the sperm counter!

[x-dryad.livejournal.com]

Not as funny but the iSweet: Diabetes Blood Sugar Monitor.

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

iBeat: heart rate monitor?

[x-dryad.livejournal.com]

iRoll: Wheelchair?

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

Mostly I'm waiting for the "bigger and better" second generation model. The iPad Maxi.

[x-dryad.livejournal.com]

That's just a bad pun.

Why Apple? Why did you do this? What was so wrong with the "iTablet"?

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

Also, re: the whole "the last time there was this much buzz about a tablet it had commandments on it", yeah, but at least THAT tablet had handwriting recognition!

/ba-dum-bum

Are all old people this lame?

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Dude, if that worked with my iPod, I would totally buy it.

iStoned for like, parents who wanna see if their kids are on drugs.

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

I'm kind of surprised there isn't already an app for that, to be honest. Maybe because they haven't figured out how to slap a sensor on it.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but I don't have a iPhone, I have a iPod and you can't load stuff on those, right?

They need to make the iLast or the iRise. Porn and like, digital viagra in the same device thing.

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

True, regarding the whole iPod thing.

...I don't even know what to say to that second part, though.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Dude, it'd make a ton of cash if someone made it. You're all Gettin' Nerdy Wit it, you do it!

[x-dryad.livejournal.com]

I totally just spit out all my tea. Thank you Kyle.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

You need an iNapkin for cleaning that up automatically. It can be like a tiny ass Roomba.
