I completely see the intended use of the tablet - a portable, touched based version of a FULL COMPUTER.

The iPad is a giant iPod. That's it. You don't get anything new out of it except for a giant screen.

haha my dad thinks electronics have self destruct devices built in to make the product fail as soon as the warranty period is up.

Hopefully they'll find a way to use that 32prong connector to use as a USB with an adaptor. That's really all it's missing along with flash.

Then it will basically be a computer.

Other then the whole running more then one program at a time, or having an actual OS that is supported for more then cellphone programs.

Flash is not just for p0rn, there are lots of websites that use flash. Hell, almost every website with any kind of video uses flash, there are also plenty of websites that use flash for the interface, and most browser games are flash.If your going to get something to entertain you browsing around the internet you are going to miss a significant portion of what you are trying to do with out flash.

Hell, even if the only thing we wanted to do with flash& the internet was p0rn, its still a very valid argument. If all I want to do is use it to watch p0rn, the point still remains that it will not do what I want it to do.
