The internet is a horrible, horrible place. Thank god the iPad and iPhone and Apple apps came along to save this lady and others who live in fear of the internet.
That was one of the most unintelligent pieces of crap I've ever read. Other than Flash, how on earth is the Internet on an ipad any different than the one on my laptop? What a moron.

Someone else mentioned it in a thread here too, but I'm getting real tired of the fear-mongering. It's like the Liberals... "We're not going to campaign on any kind of a real platform, in fact we don't even care about platforms or policies. Instead, we're just going to write a bunch of articles to tell you that the Conservatives will eat your children if you vote for them."

Here's an idea. How about somebody make a device that will compete against the iPad, and let people choose for themselves? I mean actually compete. Not just some piece of crap with a 2 hour battery and a 2gb flash drive, running Windows.

The only reason people ever have to revert to articles like this, is when there is no sign of competition from anywhere else.
