This Apple is Very Tempting

In some ways I still don't feel technology advanced. I'm currently using my sisters 5 year-old computer that is slowly losing memory space and I still own a CD player. Mind you it does have MP3 capabilities, if I burn the songs on a data disc.

So to feel more in the loop, I've been saving up for the iPod Touch the past few months, which I'm hoping to get soon.

But now Apple releases this....

The iPad

As I see it, it's an iPod that mated with a Mac Book and took some steroids. Plus it has an unfortunate product name. Let the woman's mensuration jokes begin.

But I think it would be cool to have a video/music player/reader combo. Yeah it has no camera or a phone capabilities, but do you really want to take pictures or talk on that? Also it's not the most portable music player, but I'm waiting for the App that will make the iPad screen look like a old school boom box. Cause that won't make me look like an ass at all. :P

I'll have to go to my local Apple store and see if they have one to fiddle around with. Plus I have to weigh the pros and cons of it. One of them is the $300 price difference between a 64GB iPod Touch and a 64GB iPad.

Anyone wanting to get their paws on this magical and revolutionary device*, or are you going to wait for the next generation?

*Apple's words, not mine :P

You really just have to ask yourself what you wanted originally: How and where did you intend to use the iPod touch? If primarily a music player, that's still your best bet.

As for storage, I thought you determined you didn't have THAT much music in the end that you needed 64GB?

(Oh, and it's not out yet, so don't rush to that Apple Store :P)
