I believe I have a bad case of it.

I want an iPad.

I don't need an iPad - but I want one.

I really like my iPhone and I would loooooove a giant version of it.

My kids would enjoy it.

It will make them smarter.

It will make people like me.

It will make girls wish they could be with me...except my wife...it will make her angry until she sees that iBooks comes with Winnie the Pooh. Then she will be into it and we'll have mad crazy lovin...

Oh the fever...

I have not had new gadget fever in this way in a looong time - I resisted the iPhone until earlier this year. I know that this iPad is also probably the 'lame' one and that a better one, more like the new iPhone (which I'm fairly 'meh' over) with a webcam built in will be out next year (I am predicting).

So...I can't even remember the last gadget that got me to new gadget fever this bad...

What is making it worse is how much talk there is of them at work with us having to figure out some sort of a 'policy' around them for security and protection of intellectual property and what not...yet...they...won't...buy...me...one...so...I ...can...figure...that...all...out....

FEVER!
