Nope. I've still no use for it

And so I discover today that the iPad doesn't even take the standard size of 3G SIM card, but some miniature card that no network currently produces. The crux of this is that I couldn't justify buying an iPad to use either of the two cacky 3G mobile 'extreme narrowband' services with 3 and Orange that I've foolishly signed up to until the end of time.

The iPad, is there ever going to be a problem this thing will solve?

Oh iPad

Isn't that just a MacBook Air with the keyboard snapped off?

Get on with it Steve and update the 17" MacBook Pro.

this is my prediction

[11:33] wellhiddenmark: Apple are in the business of making products that people want
[11:34] wellhiddenmark: nobody wants a tablet
[11:34] jamilroberts: everyone is convinced it will be just a big iPhone with a contract, but who on earth would want that?
[11:35] wellhiddenmark: nobody
[11:35] wellhiddenmark: it's going to be a book
[11:35] wellhiddenmark: the coolest book in the world
[11:35] wellhiddenmark: that just happens to run iPhone apps
[11:36] wellhiddenmark: it will fold
[11:36] wellhiddenmark: and be virtually indestructible
[11:37] wellhiddenmark: it will have no connectors
[11:37] wellhiddenmark: for anything
[11:37] wellhiddenmark: it will charge on a mat
[11:37] wellhiddenmark: that will also charge your iphone
[11:37] wellhiddenmark: because it has no connectors it will be as thin as cardboard
[11:38] wellhiddenmark: this is my prediction
