But back to the Ipoo/iPad...don't under estimate Apple's products until you actually used it. I was skeptical about the iPhone till I got one and missed it dearly since I lost it. The user experience and the design might make you forgive any shortcoming that this device has. And judging from Apple's history of hit products under Stevie J. I wouldn't bet against Apple.
apple is a different beast. some of the rules don't apply to them.
i won't buy one, but if i did, i'd be pretty pumped about streaming mlb.tv on it. would be much easier to take to the ballpark or anywhere then my laptop.

Quite the fan.
..Good point Jobs. No flash, multitasking, camera, etc. is more than a good enough reason for yo to kill it now

If they give you everything you want now, then you wont buy another one in 2 years or in 5 years.

LOL, you would take the iPad to the baseball park to stream . . . baseball!
Quite the fan.
you are aware that sometimes late in the season, more than just your game matters, eh?
a red sox fan could be at fenway watching their team while keeping an eye on what's going on with the yankees... hell, watching that game at the same time. baseball's a good sport for that. there's a decent bit of down time between each pitch, and between innings.
plus, it's small enough to carry around and doesn't weigh much.
but, yeah, i am quite a baseball nut.

if you can't, yeah, big fail. but if you can, isn't that a bit of multitasking?

No camera, no ports, and very limited connectivity - even Apple fanboys are going to be calling out the fruit people for screwing this up this badly. I will say that $500 is far lower than the normal Apple Tax I was expecting Steve to ask people to pay.
Though with all things Apple, you overpay for what you get.
i might be wrong, but wouldn't you be able to use safari while listening to itunes?
if you can't, yeah, big fail. but if you can, isn't that a bit of multitasking?

Don't get defensive, I'm just messing with 'ya.

That's the ONLY way it multi-tasks. My dumbphone from 2004 can do that. IT has done this since the original iPhone, and IMO is not considered "multi-tasking" by any means. Try listening to Pandora while browsing Safari..that's right..YOU CAN'T.
Your post is odd -- it attributes to me a quote I never uttered.
