iPad? Really?

As I perused the web during lunch today, I came across Apple's "BIG ANNOUNCEMENT." The unveiled their latest, revolutionary device. The iPad.

What "genius" in marketing came up with that name? Aside from all the feminine hygiene jokes that are sure to follow, it just doesn't ring well in the ears.

Some are already panning it as a HUGE iPhone that can't call anyone.

I am usually 100% Apple anything, but this does not make a good first impression. Also, does everything Apple makes have to institute the "i" in it's name? They are starting to get like McDonald's with the "Mc".

Here are a few new products, currently in the development stage at Apple:

The iClub. Listen to your favorite tunes while you lock your steering wheel in place.

The iDoor. "Slide to unlock"

The iCar. The Worlds lightest and thinnest automobile, complete with touchscreen steering.

The iWindow. Currently tied up in court in litigation with Microsoft.

The iWife. Let's not go there.

Maybe the iPad will take off. But I think I will stick to my iPhone for now. The iPad doesn't fit into my pocket.
