What is the iPad?

Is it a computer? No. Technically, yes, but it's not a very good one. It's limited to what you can install on it, it doesn't have native inputs outside the 30-pin, and, hell, the browser doesn't even have Flash or give you an opportunity to install your own plugins.

Is it an eBook reading device? Of sorts, though the kindle is better on the eyes, has a longer battery life, has free 3G and the books from Amazon are five dollars cheaper on average. Kindle is also cheaper.

Is it a portable presentation tool? Maybe. I mean, it's certainly portable and small and light. The screen looks great, too, but you'll have to do all your presentations in Apple iWork instead of PowerPoint or Flash or whatever you're used to. It only docks vertically as the 30-pin is on the bottom of the device, so for horizontal presentations you will have to hold it.

Is it a digital photo frame? It only docks vertically so I hope you have only portraits. I hope you're also proud of yourself because you just paid five hundred bucks for a picture frame.

Is it a digital video player? The screen isn't widescreen. Fail.

Is it a large iPhone? No. The iPad doesn't make calls, silly.

Is it a large iPod Touch? Yes. Yes it is. It's a big fucking iPod Touch. Yay, Apple. You made a big fucking iPod Touch.

I agree that photo is the most fascinating of all taken on 9/11.. it shows steel beams disintegrating, unfortunately, Dr. Wood has been on some radio and video talk shows and has been seen practically losing her composure and was not able to hold a decent conversation on the topics of her website.

some believe she is a government shill. I'm not sure what to think of her but I don't trust her. I think we should examine her evidence because there are some very strange occurences such as the 4 photo frames linked above... I just wouldn't use Dr. Wood as a valid reference.
