1. Pass
Too small, almost no "native" Apps, made to be used in landscape form only and has a browzer that crashes. Otherwise it's a real iPad killer. :sarcasm:

2. So win the iCrap, sell it, and buy the CrapBerry instead
I'm going to trade it for a Galaxy Tab if I win.

Or I might sell it and buy a pair of B&N's Nooks; slap full Android on them and give them to the kids.

3. I just got a Nook.
They were selling refurbished ones with 3G+Wifi for $99 on ebay. I'm very pleased with it.:-)

5. Skinner probably has one of those.
I envision the mods sitting around in a room like that.

12. That settles it.
I get the iPad 'cause you're all ungrateful. Besides, most of you would just use it for porn or some shady illegal activities. I know that DU wouldn't want to be associated with any of that. I, on the other hand, would use it for good, justice and Democraticy stuff, including sharing DU with nonbelievers. O8)

I'll just email them my address on Friday (when I get paid and can actually friggin donate this quarter).

18. Why? I'm not an iPad fan, but the Blackberry Playbook has fewer features and no apps.
Generally speaking, it's pretty inferior to the iPad.
