Also as with the iphone you are restricted to use Apple-blessed apps only and you must depend on the damn itunes to load stuff onto it. It’s pretty, you look hip with it, but it’s fairly useless. Get yourself a cheap ass netbook and you can do much more with it than with this thing.

Tablets failed, a restriction-ridden tablet will fail harder, but there will be people who buy this thing just for the novelty.

Potentially it already failed…

Its announcement had never generated such dissapointment, even Apple fanboys thought it sucked, so I cant picture anyone buying this if you can get a proper netbook for half the price.

more stuff to consider:

No multitasking
Ported OS
No Webcam
Ugly Bezel
No Adobe Flash (not even flash lite)
Incompatible 3G (mini sim, and limited networks)
Not widescreen (4:3)
No HDMI out (a new industry standard)
Not ammoled (Much better for reading books)
Expensive peripherals
Ported iphone Apps resolution are stretched not upscaled
iBook only available in US

Yep, they might as well change its ugly name to iFail as well. I mean seriously, that thing is just an over sized iTouch, Lol. And I thought apple was leading innovation. What a shame.

I think it fails aswell. Cell phones have 1GHZ processors too lmfao!!! My Dream Itablet would be:

Dual core 2GHz cortex a9 (soon to be in cell phones)
Nvidia Tegra 2 Graphics for HD out (Zune HD outputs in 720p and is 4x smaller!!!)
Alteast a 250GB laptop HD to keep it slim (64gb flash pshhh)
Running MAC OSX instead of itouch/iphone software
And some usb/card reader slots

MULTI-TASK what time is this 1920? APPLE get real!!!

That could be built for around $400, retail could be around $550-$XXXX

A netbook would be better investment instead of this SH*T

In a nutshell, no. Apple succeeds in nearly everything they put in stores. It may have a few problems, but overall it'll be great.
