It's a trap! Loved the column, but maybe the N4G heading should have said something about it being a joke. I especially loved the part about the "foam wedgies that will soften the blow."

He does have a good point about the iTunes service. Apple likes to tout the fact that they're the thinking-man's company in the tech industry, but it's sad that iTunes has turned symphonic movements into "songs," and it is kinda like breaking up Wittgenstein or Kant into "story chapters." I don't know what it had to do with the tablet, but hey, good point.

I guess i will just stick with my macbook pro for now lol

People are so gullible

these things will be the norm like netbooks. apple will prob have the sexiest of them,but there will be cheaper ones with same specs etc. i just want an ALL internet function device that can handle anything the web has to offer.

Too many people licking Apple's crack. They put out too much junk with no actual purpose other than to be the latest fashion accessory and the sheeple buy it up like it's a narcotic. Apple can go screw. I don't have an ipod, I don't have an iphone, I don't have a Mac, hell, I don't even use Quicktime on my PC anymore. People need to stop paying so much money for useless junk. I think Tyler Durden was right...

And how in the hell does this qualify as "News For Gamers" anyway? Calling the ridiculously low quality apps that run on iphones and other cell phones a "game" is like calling a bicycle a limousine.

Although it is obvious the article was meant to be funny in a satirical nature, I think the responses here are even funnier. I think someone just wanted to post this article here so they could see how dumb the responses would be.

'it's also a phone'
