Apple's new toy.... The iPad

Its features are definately impressive (best web surfing experience, 140000 applications at your fingertips, bla bla bla...) But there is one tiny flaw----> Its bloody impractical to use.


Unlike normal laptops, the iPad cannot stand on its own. The best way is to prop it up on your thighs when you are sitting on a couch, like this:

I mean, who doesn't want to be seen holding an extra large version of the iTouch, right???
