There is absolutely nothing innovative about it. I think Steve Jobs purposefully named it this because he knew how unremarkable it was.

I came home from classes this morning and my roommates were gnawing over this new piece of Apple ware.

So I read a review and viewed a couple video's of the iPad. The iPad seemed to me like it was just a slower tablet however, my roommates were absolutely fascinated by it and when I asked them how it was different from a tablet they said essentially that because it was Apple it would run smoother. Which I guess Pc interfaces do take longer to get used to but they seem more efficient in the end so I don't think I could ever justify buying this product.

I think apple products go big for two reasons. 1) because they take technology that is already being used (proven to have usefulness), make it look flashy and sell it to people who place great value on aesthetics and 2) because apple embodies the monkey with cymbals attitude that a large portion of America runs on.

In my opinion if Apple released red devils and called them the iRazors, Apple would make cutting yourself cooler then Slipknot and My Chemical Romance could have ever dreamed of.
