Well, I've already cracked into it, but honestly, I don't need it to do much more. It has replaced my laptop; I sold it to buy the iPad. And I had a Toshiba tablet and a Gateway one. They were amazing. Definitely recommend the Tablet PCs. Unfortunately, most of the tablets and such are moving to slates that you can only use fingers with. I loved those pens.
And you can't tell me that Apple was afraid that
radio would kill mp3s. That's just d-u-m.
I've never bought anything from iTunes. Just a few things from the App Store, like a word processor and sketch program, which is very righteous. It's Sketchpad Pro, from Autodesk. They're the people that make the AutoCAD software. But yeah, I never played any games on my laptop. I just watched videos occasionally. Having to pull a 17" laptop out of my bag, waking it up from sleep, and connecting to an access point (which takes my laptop forever for some reason), just to watch a Youtube video I wanted to show someone - it just sucks. I can hold my computer with one hand, now. Because that's how I see it.
I understand not liking Apple. I've disliked a lot of their products. I don't like the iPhone. I don't like the iPod. iMacs are alright. I like the all-in-one design. But I bought this because I saw what it could do for me. It's all I need. It can do a number of things and it does them well, but, of course, it can't do everything.
Also, if a pen-computer is what you want, I've got a really nice pen that you can use on the iPad's capacitive touchscreen. It works very well in the sketch program. Also, I can type as fast on the on-screen keyboard as I do on a regular keyboard. The auto-correct, while it has been frustrating a couple times, fixes whatever couple errors I have had.
