Really?<br><br>How about a keyboard for typing out the emails this thing's supposed to be so great for? Or a USB port? Or Flash support? Or multi-tasking? Or a camera? Or a user-replaceable battery? Or SD compatibility? <br><br>If it's not going to at least do everything a netbook does, why does it cost twice as much? This thing is absurd, and you ought to have the integrity to stop calling these advertisements "reviews." That's your list of what's missing? Really?

How about a keyboard for typing out the emails this thing's supposed to be so great for? Or a USB port? Or Flash support? Or multi-tasking? Or a camera? Or a user-replaceable battery? Or SD compatibility?

If it's not going to at least do everything a netbook does, why does it cost twice as much? This thing is absurd, and you ought to have the integrity to stop calling these advertisements “reviews.”

This isn't a tablet - its a big ipod. Netbooks far more bang for the buck. no stylus support to e-sign documents takes away any real business application. This isn't a tablet – its a big ipod.

It really feels like they are selling them to me. Is it me or do the Digital Trends “articles” seem to be kind of using fake negative headlines and then just singing the praises of the iPad?

Users won't even be able to fire up a little music in Pandora and surf, IM while they work, etc. This was a forgivable omission on the iPhone, which most people find too small to multitask anyway, but on a tablet, it still boggles the mind that Apple left it out.

The user is still tied to the iStore - it's just a glorified iPod Touch - no camera? WTH? No memory card support? No thanks...I'll keep my notebook.
