iPad: A Bad Review

It’s been more than 24 hours since my idol Steve Jobs announced the new iPad. What a major shock to the world, especially those with fatal heart please do not die due to the immense despondency and dismay. I myself was in grief… I shall now hold black balloons and meditate like Gandhi.

First of all, it really didn’t have all the amazing functionalities that everyone was expecting to have based on the specifications I browsed through. How on earth is it going to a tablet-killer everyone assumed it’s going to be.

Basically Apple’s been stressing on simplicity. iPad basically is just a gigantic version of an iPod-touch. Some people complained that it doesn’t have a webcam, I was wondering… skyping will be ten times more strenuous. Holding an iPad as if you’re in a camwhoring position while video conversing? The iPad is too heavy to hold in front of your face for long, so you'd end up balancing it in your lap, which means both callers would find themselves staring up one another's others nostrils, like a pair of curious dental patients.

B-O-O!!

As for the name, the first thing that pop in my mind was tampons! iPad and tampons! It associates. Why can’t they just name it the iSlate like it was rumoured before, ‘Slate’ makes it sound catchy and apparently ‘more responsive’ to it’s touch screen ability. Don’t ask me why, it’s just like it. 

Steve Jobs, better up next time before I loose all my hopes on dreams on Apple.
