No, but then my phone has no camera nor a color display. I don't go for gadgets and I'm happy to read books on my laptop if needed (currently reading Dune Messaih) so I'm clearly not their target market.

Does anyone here buy gadgets but are just not opting to jump on the bandwagon and embrace all that the mighty Apple releases?

Nope as always it way over priced for the version with the best features and it has the serious mac limitations to it.

That pretty-well covers it...

The only 'Apple' product I have is a 2c.....I paid a fair price for it and its printer, extra drive, etc.....$5.

I don't want to offend anyone, but it seems to me that the anti-apple crowd are a lot more fervent and rabid than most "apple fanboys"….

that is the stupidest name for a product ever.

No way i am ever buying this.

Nope. My iPod touch and my Macbook are all the mobile devices I need. With my custom-built gaming PC, that fills out my computing needs. A tablet doesn't fit in there anywhere.

I would have liked a new Macbook Pro 13" to have bee released instead. Would have been a nice upgrade, as my current Macbook is getting old, and also isn't that powerful for Windows games. Waiting for i5 processors, so SoaSE will run well.

Yes.

I would have ordered one today if they were available.

Small storage, non-x86 CPU, no multitasking.. basically a scaled-up iPod. So no.

I think folks are making a yes or not call on whether the iPad fills a need or requirement for them.  Not really an anti-apple or fanboy thing as far as I can tell.

NO...   I'll wait for the HP  tablet ...  

Can it play Sins or GalCiv2?

Then no.

It's all a matter of perception.

When you spend two grand for an $800 machine, pc users find you rather nutty.  Macs, by virtue of not being available through multiple outlets and victim to price control, are often an utter ream job for sub standard equipment at the higher end.  The base inputs on their computers are usually relatively well priced, but you're paying even more for those higher grade components than you would getting cored out by Dell.  You have to be really rabid to pay a 100% premium or better for a high end machine all so you can use a fraction of the software on a handicapped operating system.

Then there's the iCrap line of products, which, whether useful or not, have never been anything revolutionary.  That every new iteration of someone elses better product is treated like the holy grail by the apple fanbase is scary.  Ignoring that Maddox is a tard, it's things like this that cause me to wonder where the brain cells have gone when someone buys the latest over-priced knockoff of someone elses superior product.

If I say someone is 52 cards short of a full deck and left with two jokers upstairs for buying the first iPhone, I'm not really being fervent and rabid.

I will accept one as a gift but won't buy one.
