Ipaid Sub_title: Apples new Cash Cow |
|
Yesterday I watched a rather desperate attempt by Apple geeks to
Skype and live stream their style Gurus latest innovation and job lot
The Ipaid
Here it is being played with . . .
http://www.techcrunch.com/2010/01/27/ipad-video-demo/
A new ARM chip called the A4,
No USB etc etc (read all about it on the Web)
but the experience of speed and usability
makes me already want the Android version running Chromium
or better still Puppy ARM (or is that PAW - Puppy ARM Webpad)
even though not quite there yet . . .
Part of the reason I use puppy is the feel of it
The experience of quick booting and usability
Would you pay for an Ipaid?

How about a name suggesting escape from corporate apron strings: the iSoar?

another disappointed fanboy |

After the disappointment of Vista, this consumer switched his hopes to Apple. Now, he feels betrayed.

OK, so take a smart phone, remove most of its functionality, and blow it up to super-large size. I'm thinking I wouldn't pay much for one of these things -- I'm thinking I wouldn't pay anything at all for one.

Sure. After it hits Goodwill or Salvation Army Stores.
