I am sooooooo late with this. Honestly, I just didn’t see the point when Facebook started pushing this little addition out at the time, but I followed the crowed back in ’09 and made one, then abandoned it for well over a year. In spite of my neglect I still gained one whopping “like” at some point in the distant past. lol
So I am here today to be utterly shameless and ask that if you like what I do here, please join my Facebook fanpage over in the sidebar. I just blog what I see and like across the innernets in addition to what I like to use to make my life more productive and Apple-filled. And I’ll own up to it: I am an Apple fanboy, through and through. What can ya do other than be who ya are, yes?
F-bomb aside, I do find, fashion blogger, Bryanboy’s overall opinion quite indicative of an attitude I think is definitely shared by A LOT of people regarding the iPad. I’ll even confess that I still can’t find and justify a non-wasteful reason for needing to own this device. If someone gifted it to me, GREAT! But am I silly enough to shell out $499 or more dollars for this things? Abso-freakin’-lutely not!!! At least not at that price. Nevertheless, from a strictly practical standpoint, I truly don’t need this thing, whereas my iPhone was primarily an investment to suite the needs of my busy lifestyle better than a Blackberry at the time way back in 2007 (iPhone), then 2008 (iPhone 3G), and 2009 (iPhone 3GS).
What’s your opinion on the iPad. Time worthwhile device, or do you consider it a waste of money? Sound off!
Anyway here is what Bryanboy had to say about the iPad…
Aside from the touch screen, what can the iPad do that a phone and a laptop can’t? I don’t understand why they won’t develop one powerful device that can do EVERYTHING.
Camera, phone, laptop, iPod, and now, the iPad? Can you imagine carrying all that mess in your bag?
16-64 Gig memory and no camera or phone functions? And you have to pay more extra for 3G capabilities?
Typical Apple behavior to nickle and dime features because they know suckers will buy them every time they release a new version.

There is an awesome blogger who’s blog I read, chuvaness.com, on a regular basis, and from time-to-time she blogs about an amazing restaurant chain called Pepper Lunch. Somestimes she shows the food that they serve and I literally salivate because the meal choices look so delicious. I wish Pepper Lunch was in America–namely South Florida. I would eat at Pepper Lunch all the time!
Anyway, check her stuff out, she’s a nice blogger!
I was invited to go but can’t. That’s the long and short of this video. Wish I could go, but I am glorying in the fact that I have a small victory of being recognized and at least invited to attend. I think it says a lot.
