- That you can hook up a DVD player to the iPad??
- That true multi-tasking will finally be supported?

That they came up with something to replace iTunes or at least won't be issuing updates to it 5 times a day?

Who cares. For a device to come out without a USB port these days is silly.

We have an Ipad on the plane and as soon as we can get a device like it that uses a USB (or other) port to allow us to work on it normally this thing will be on CraigsList...

The HP Slate is out, as of last Friday. Mine is on back order, even though I ordered it the first day...

Windows 7 Home...front and rear cameras. USB ports. Stand/doc which allows mouse and keyboard and a VGA port if you want. We'll see how it is, hopefully in a few days.

It doesn't matter what it is, there will still be hundreds of thousands of "intelligent people" lining up to pay inflated prices for some new-fangled electronic gizmo they didn't even realize they had a use for, just so they can say they got one of the first ones and so they can beotch about the price falling 50% in three months.

Now get off my lawn!

About as much of a let-down as when Geraldo opened Al Capone's vault... (For you young'ins, check wikipedia.... )

See thread on Noah questioning expensive women's shoes. Men also have their share of "things to have".

Apple Records (the Beatles) and Apple Computer have had a dispute since Apple Computer started. They finally realized money can be made together.

"The decision comes two years before the 50-year copyright protection on the Beatles' earliest work is to due to begin running out.

"Love Me Do", the band's first single, released in October 1962, will lose its copyright in late 2012." Telegraph
