The iPad is here!

anyone? anyone? bueller?

I was hanging outside the Apple announcement today with Justine. We tried but nobody gave us a press pass. Even though we didn’t get to see anything, I’m esploder over the product. They call it the iPad.

I’m absolutely thrilled about the new iPad. The wi-fi model is coming in 60 painful days, but I’d have to wait even longer for the 3g model- 90 days! I’m bathing in the kool-aid. Isn’t it lovely?

The skinny:
1/2 inch thick
1.5 pounds
9.7 inch IPS display (some fancy pants type of LCD)
1GHz Apple “A4″ chip
speaker & microphone
bluetooth
802.11 wifi
accelerometer & compass

What I want to know is, why no camera?

    For real, no camera? Any video and/or audio outputs? At least a mic? Kind of odd as gtalk video and the like seem to be taking off. Video chat is a real boon to those stationed in Iraq if they are lucky enough to be able to purchase internet access (Yes, purchase. The military does not supply it, a private company does.) Anyhow, better than nothing, I guess.
