IMO, this product was a total bust. I can see myself using this as much as I use my laptop. This isn't my kind of product. I'll stick with purchasing a MacBook Pro. :D

It's not a computer, it's not going to sell, at least, not until they make some changes. I think if they added a bluetooth headset built in that can be disconnected, added texting, and other things, it would be a netbook/phone, but this just doesn't fit a lot of needs...

redsox21- this would definitely NOT be Apple's first fail. apple has created many failed products, mostly in the 90's. in fact the 90's was pretty much a decade of failure for apple, so they've definitely experienced failure. apple really got successful in the mid to late 2000's.

IT"S HUGE!!! dang what was MR Jobs thinking and the name, lol Mad TV had an IPAD spoof add. Their site states "the ultimate in portability" that's a load more like the opposite of portability. They should re-invent the Iphone, and not just make it bigger and more expensive. who in their right mind would buy this??

No matter what,I really wanted to have an iPad.I’m an on-the-go person and I bet that this one is just an all-in-on gadget which makes all I need from internet and very little application that I may need is in there so what more can I ask for.I even search for this gadget at eBay and also tried Beezid--a new auction site.

could be but it's amazzing in my opinion. I can't wait to have this soon. Seeing videos of it on youtube and I'm amazed. The watching movie part seems the best.

its prob gonna end up getting more features that you have to pay for, just like how the ipod touch. i think everyone above is right, if it had more tablet-like functionality then it would be more worth it, and at&t needs to give up that contract soon, i have verizon and i would love a verizon iphone!

Limited uses for what it costs. Looks pretty but fails to impress me. I so wanted to want it. But nahh

I've read all the comments above and I do agree in part with almost everyone. I give it to Apple to go out on the limb here... Other than the dedicated Apple fans, I just don't see how this is going to stack up against the rest of the competition with a price point so high. On the other hand, I'm interested to see the UI advancements they've been touting over there in Cupertino. The good thing is whether win, lose, or draw; we will all benefit from gains this device will bring.
