Let´s look at the bright side of life: At least we Amiga fans are not the only ones that are annoyed about paying too much for underpowered systems now

Even after yesterday I heard an American radio station discussing how Apple can sell this to Walmart shoppers, this isn't a device for Walmart shoppers, it's a device for the educated middle class, who will line up up long queues at the Apple store to buy this.


Apple can sell anything to anyone... Jobs is a genius, and this is his talent.
It looks almost useless for me. It´s really big, and lacks some stuff.
A Newton like device would be nice. I loved my MP2000. Right size, good idea, reliable
I've used it for a long time, but it had to be replaced by an EEE.
I just can´t figure out how Apple would battle against netbooks with this product. They are cheaper, some are faster, and they can run Windows and Linux (maybe even OS X)
Probably they will rely only on the Apple fanatics user base... and Jobs persuasive powers
