This guy is a moron!

He is at it again!!
Well so much for a bad economy. Can’t be too bad when morons like this can waste 2 days not working and just sitting in front of the store only to be a real life internet troll “first” douche. You know the type, the assholes who love posting “first” on YouTube or your favorite blog site. I never understood the big deal with being the “first” person to post or buy something. Really does an hour, a day or even week even matter? Who gets off on saying “Dude I was the first person in NYC to have an iPad”. Not to mention that it’s not like he is waiting for a necessity or anything, it’s a fuckin’ toaster, an appliance. It’s like waiting in line at BestBuy to get a fuckin refrigerator. It’s not magic, it’s not “needed”. I don’t care what the fuck you say, no one NEEDS an iPad. Ok wait… Let me rephrase that. If you don’t have a laptop, iPhone (which he has), personal computer, smartphone or anyway to connect to the internet then yes I can see a need for this. There is a “need” to be connected to the internet these days for sure. That is why this is nothing more then a fuckin’ toaster. It just happens to be a kind of cool toaster but still a toaster none the less. Oh yeah and don’t worry there are plenty to go around. So who wants to tell this moron about 200k people already pre-ordered the thing so he really isn’t “first” anymore.
So back to the story…. iPhone iPad Gary is back with his chubby ass wasting time sitting on his fat ass waiting for an iPad to be the first to get one. I love his description of the iPad:
“Because… it’s like a mini laptop! I mean, you just… you know, click it on, just like you click the iPhone on. And you don’t have to open it up, and you know, go through, you know, go through everything. “
You just click it on? You don’t have to open it up? Really?!?! Wow that sounds like some devil voodoo magic shit right there! Is this going to revolutionize how we power shit up? I’ve never heard of such a thing before?!? I guess to Gary the laptop is overly complicated with opening it up and all and pushing a single button to power it on. (I just close and open my laptop because it goes in sleep mode, never even use the power button. It’s actually easier to turn on then my iPhone with the click of a button and slide to unlock but what do I know, I’m warm on my couch writing this while he is outside freezing his fat ass off) I mean I can understand totally Gary, if you have never opened a book then how can you be expected open a laptop. I guess if we made a laptop look like a pizza box he wouldn’t have any trouble getting that fuckin’ think open now would he??
iPad launches on April 3rd, pre-orders begin March 12th

If you are retarded enough to want one of these here is the announcement.
iPad launches on April 3rd, pre-orders begin March 12th.
16GB WiFi only — $499
32GB WiFi only — $599
64GB WiFi only — $699
16GB WiFi + 3G — $629*
32GB WiFi + 3G — $729*
64GB WiFi + 3G — $829*
*3G data plan sold separately. Yeah you have to pay a monthly fee for that 3G data plan.
So there you have it. $829 for the top of the line GIANT iPod Touch. The reason I don’t call it a GIANT iPhone like most people is because it doesn’t make phone calls. I’m sure fan boys will be lining up around the block to get their hands on this for sure. I’m also sure that after about 2 days of playing with it they are going to say “What the fuck did I just waste my money on”. I mean I’m sorry what the hell can this thing do that my iPhone can’t? I understand the need for a tablet MAC/PC but not this thing. Maybe I’m old school, but I don’t see a consumer need for a stripped down tablet or a netbook? I have my phone which can do email, calenders, internet, and a few apps I need while I’m out and about. I have a desktop for hardcore work and gaming and a laptop for travel, work and when I just want to sit on the couch and surf. Please tell me where this thing (or a shitty little netbook) would fit in my life or yours? I mean really? What void is this filling? Say what you want about Adobe Flash, but if this is suppose to be a little web thing that checks email and does some basic computer stuff I guarantee you will be pissed when you realize how many sites use Flash. Forget about porn, Hulu, or most TV station sites and watching shit like that. I bet people are going to be like “fuck it, I’ll just grab my laptop because I want to watch last nights SNL”. I can already hear my phone ringing with people saying “Aaron I got an iPad and I can’t watch Hulu, I think it’s broken can you fix it for me?”
iPad: For those extra heavy days….

I’m going to have to give this device a big fat FAIL as the cool interweb people say.
In case you didn’t hear Apple announced the iPad today. The much hyped tablet leaves much to be desired. First off the top of my head it looks like a giant iPhone or iPod Touch. It only runs one app at a time (like the iPhone and Touch) so no multi-tasking, has no Flash for the web, no USB, no HDMI out, no folders for application management, no camera not that I really need a camera like an iPhone but a front facing one for iChat or whatever camera chat program you use to me seems like a really bad idea, no lock screen info, and I’m sure I could drone on and on with what it can’t do. I think today was a total bust for Apple. There was no mention of a new iPhone OS (4.0), AppleTV updates, iLife updates, MacBookPro updates etc. Overall this was it. The iPad. It’s not the laptop killer or netbook killer people hoped for. I’m sure once the blog people stop sucking Steve’s dick for 10 mins and actually sit back and look at this thing logically they will realize that 1. They have no use for it. 2. It’s really not that great of a product.
So what can this thing do. Well it’s WiFi and 3G (3G cell service requires a more expensive unit and monthly fee via AT&T), it can check email, run some games, many apps, surf the web, bla bla bla. Really take an iPhone or someones iPod Touch for a spin and basically other then some little visual tweaks and a few iPad specific apps that’s it. My iPhone is already an iPad but that can make calls and take pictures.
So from an Apple Fanboy let me be the first to say I think this product is a bust and really wasn’t worth all the hype leading up to it.
And for the record: iTampon is beating iPad on top Twitter trends at the moment.
Update again… (I’m posting these as they come in so keep checking back)
Guess I’m not the only one who is seeing the absurdity of this device. Giz is already starting to post negitive posts about it. Check here to read it.
Another Update. Well not really an update because it’s kind of old, but fitting none the less:
Update again…. This just in Apple announces the iPad Nano:

Check out this product found back on Giz. Now that’s a tablet that would kick ass!!! Best of both worlds.

Rumor: Apple may buy Twitter

Rumors floating around the net that Apple may buy Twitter for around $700 million! I take this as just a rumor for now. Yeah Twitter is cool and seems everyone under the sun is using it, but $700 million? Now I may be a little ignorant but has Twitter made any money yet? Do they have revenue? I thought the “dot com bubble” showed that a company needs to have some cash flow before it’s worth anything? Pets.com anyone? Who knows, either way I’ll keep ya posted.
