Do you guys still hate on the iPad?

I remember before it came out, all I heard was bad things and skeptism about the product, however, today all I hear is great things about it. Do you think the hate has died down?

Yeah cause people miss the trash can and I see them lying around on the street corners.

I still hate it, actually. I'm just not very outspoken like some others are. I really didn't have a whole lot to say about it. It's made by Apple, it's an oversized iPod touch, and it does nothing that a laptop and a PC can't do. What more is there to complain about?

i dont see why my opinion would change

No way. The iPad is an awesome device. Just wish I could afford one(which is my guess for why most people here hate on it)

My buddy has one... its kinda cool...

Yeah, I do. Problem?

Like most early adoptions of new technology there will be a niche market for these things until it is integrated with everything else (or not, in which case some other tech will come out). That's the funny part about this area of tech, it's for entertainment primarily, but it has the potential to do a whole lot more for different industries. The average person won't see past watching netflix in bed with a lightweight screen, which is nice, but again it's just about surfing and consuming entertainment. Unlike needed tech, like the infrastructure for IPv6 to replace the current burnt out IPv4 IP addressing scheme, these toys will get all the attention and headlines. Granted these devices, for what it's worth, do drive some of the development of more high tech networking and communication protocols, so I see them as a good thing. But then again I never hated it in the first place,lol

It's a cool device. My dad got one as a gift and I mess around with it from time to time.

I would never buy one though. For what it can do, the price is absolutely ridiculous.

I just don't see the point in paying that much money for such a silly product

No hate here, but it certainly isn't as good as any given android tablet.Head_of_games

People, especially on this site, are going to hate iPad simply because it's an apple product. I try not to take sides but in this case it's really hard to ignore all the features that the iPad 2 brings to the table when compared to similar devices. That being said, I don't own one and thus can't really compare it to any others realistically. I've tried it before and I've tried other tablets and I felt that the iPad was better.

It's not perfect, it's just my opinion, and tablets are always underpowered compared to a real computer/laptop.

Haters gonna hate.

I'm not interested in it.Hate is something else.

Btw,SOUTH PARK WATCHERS!

Wasn't it kinda weird that everyone that DID read the user agreement actually AGREED with it.That,or they didn't get their update.

im indifferent to it

What is there to like about it?

I messed around with one of them, to me it was nothing more than an oversized ipod touch. Rather have a netbook or laptop

Plus I hate how Apple holds their customers by the nads with their products.

Still don't see the point of it. Why would I want a half baked phone OS on a tablet, when I can have a full fledged OS on a netbook for less.
Less capable and more expensive or more cabable and less expensive? Seems like a no brainer to me.

I don't hate on the ipad. I hate all tablet computers as i believe they are overpriced, overhyped pieces of garbage who are hoping to overtake pc's while running a OS designed for cellphones

Yep, If it could fit in my pocket, maybe I would like it.

It's an apple product, of course OT hates it. :P

I own the first generation iPad and I use it every day. It's a great device in my opinion, slightly overpriced but the quality is second to none.
