It is Apple - it will be useless for the first 2 to 3 years, while they work out how they should have made it in the first place.

Avoid.

Indeed.

I have decided its shite and I do not want one.

Plus. That nice Mr Branson just gave me a lovely touch screen fone that you can actually ring people up on. Just like you had a real fone style of thing.

It is so good at ringing people that it does it on its own without my intervention whether I want to converse with them or not!

How good is that?  cloud9:

I am not a Steve Jobs fan but the I-pad is great (using it now in L.A. To send complaints about Icelandic ash delaying my flight bcd to lovely Cyprus!). It,s not a lap top but great for the intermong/music/books and stuff for us young people on the go. :-).

My Brother in Law and his lady are also marooned in LA.
He was over there on business and took his lady along for "a bit of a holiday".

Presumably his company are paying his extended bills but ............  whistle:
