I am not a MAC fan, only been a pc guy, but I can say they do make good products. This IPad though, I may even try it out.

You should try a mac out someday Rick. I have owned many apple computers over the years and having to deal with PCs at work, I would NEVER buy a PC.

Maybe someday... I own a internet company, all pc's... And I can say I have never had any issues, like others do. However I am very Microsoft savvy.

I just don't want to spend the money on something that is more, when I have never had issues. I did however take a MAC IT course way back when, and that is why I say they are good products, as I had my hands in one and built one from the ground up, or should I say took it apart and put it back together.

I will say though, the world would of been a different place if Apple was a little smarter in their youth. They could of been the every computer in every household instead of Microsoft/PC. I will admit that.

If it ain't broke don't fix it, is my attitude, Microsoft/PC's work for me, so I stick with them.

I am interested in an ebook reader with a bigger screen though. The color display with the addition of WiFi browsing capability appeals to me.

Look at the big picture.

V1 has a lot of things missing, V2 will fill some. etc...

Upgrade, not upgradeability is Apples solution.

damn, I want a camera, now I have to upgrade to a V2. Who wins in this solution?

My other company does a lot of PC & Apple sales, and I notice that quite clearly.

Boths sides are quite adamant of the others issues.
