I've got a marketing slogan for Apple:
"iPad...it's for when you need more freedom when on your iPeriod." |

if the IPad is a Pad to help with those heavy flow days, what is one to do with the Mini or the Shuffle ? tie a string to it, or just use the usb cord?

The only thing useful I've seen it do so far is run a Windows 7 desktop on it, full screen, via Citrix XenDesktop. Our guys have been doing it in house.

Killer app? The crapper.
For any computer to be truly successful, any industry professional will tell you that it really needs to have, is what is known as a "killer app", that single-most-important application that would make you want to own it.
After reviewing the video on this unit at the Apple site, I can truly say that I have figured out exactly what the "killer app" for this device is: The crapper. That's where I'd best be able to make use of this device. It is at best the device that would replace my crapper magazine/book.

If it could be used to control everything then maybe I could see a use for it, change the heat settings in my house, change my tv channel, tell me whats in the fridge, run a bath for me, and be my alarm clock. Then I can see a need for it. Until then I have a cell phone a laptop, and a desktop, I dont need anything else.

• Intense visuals, including three-dimensional clotting.
• Hardware tough enough to withstand leakage. • Attention-getting aesthetics — sleek Winged Design™ will turn heads. • Pets will love it...especially dogs. • Stay-put adhesive — stick it in the palm of your hand and leave your other hand free! • Convenient disposability keeps pipes unclogged. • Customization: scented vs. unscented, light vs. heavy, pink vs. purple. On the downside: • Only the flimsy "teen" model will be small enough to conceal in your hand.
