It's not competing with games consoles (or gaming PCs), it's competing with multimedia PCs.
I am getting one as I only use my PC for the internet, my PCs getting mothballed after that. |
Buy a laptop/netbook, they're cheaper.

And this software that can't be found on other products is?
@Rhonin the wizard the software that can not be found on any other tablet device is the over 150,000 apps that are on the ipad and who knows what 4.0 will bring also i bet the HP one uses XP or something which is designed for desktops not touch screen tablets
Fwiw, I didn't create that comparison.
But i think a modern device like this that lacks both USB and an SD card slot sucks pretty hard; video-out should be a given, too.
"Well certainly with the Xbox 360, we had some challenges at the launch. Once we identified that we took control of it. We wanted to do it right by our customers. Our customers are very important to us." -Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb (10/2013). Note: RRoD was fixed with the Jasper-revision 3 years after the launch of 360

I HAVE a laptop, and as small as it is, it's still not very convenient, it's slow, not particularly portable, and looks crap set up in the living room.
The ipad circumnavigates all these problems, which is why I am getting one.
The dude abides 
@Damnyouall i also agree it should have usb and sd but apple does offer an accessory that gives you both. you have to remember apple is simplistic they want to keep everything easy and good looking they didnt want to over complicate it and make it look ugly!!!
iGive up
The iPad has its place and will prove to be succesful. If you dont like it, dont buy it.
The other company that besides Apple has understood that technology is not for engineers but consumers and hence needs to provide easy accessibility and shouldn rely on tech specs is Nintendo - and see where that has led them.

Apple Thought Police have been dispatched to the OP's last known location.
He will be "re-educated" over a series of weeks until all vestiges of independant thought have been expunged.
Rest assured when we are done with him he will think the Apple Pippin is better than a PS3.
(Which incidentally it is, in real terms)
