I can get to a page that lets me choose color and capacity....but then what? Where's the 'continue', 'accept', 'purchase', etc button? wtf

 

[a secret-boss]

I get to pick the models but it wouldn't let me check out.
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

 

[Deleted member 17706]

single core apple TV? WTF went wrong there

It's a $100 streaming box. What do you want it to do?

 

[flyover]

Reading and surfing the web on this thing...will be amazing.

Can't wait to try reading on it. For whatever reason, I just couldn't do long-form book reading on the old one (though screenplays were always good).

 

[Jeff Albertson]

This is frustrating but expected, at least we can try to do it today and not in a week or so

 

[subrock]

got stuck on model selection like many others it seems

If you reload it had the "We'll be back" page.

 

[Jasoco]

Add to that Stocks and the notification center "widgets"

I already said Stocks, but yes, widgets are a given. It's a travesty they're not in the iPad iOS.

If iOS 6 doesn't add them back in across the entire board I don't know what's going on anymore. It's really silly they don't exist. I want to use my iPad as an alarm instead of my iPod touch. But third party apps cannot have the same integration as Apple ones. For instance, no Snooze button. It's just a notification that pops up and has no interactivity beyond opening the clock. And weather apps can't put their weather in the pull-down panel, nor can stocks apps. It only makes sense that Apple puts this stuff in the iPad version of iOS.

2 cores

 

[Magnus]

Yup, crashed back to the We'll Be Back page.

 

[PaulLFC]

At least you guys have an online store to TRY and load, UK one is completely down right now - "Be back soon".

 

[Vyer]

God damnit... I can't decide if I wait for the inevitable 4G iPhone to tether or get a 4G iPad now.

FUCK FUCK FUCK

Does the ipad still let you just buy a month to month data option?

 

[Branson]

Cool post, bro. However, you are about 2 years and 9 billion ipads sold late to this discussion.

I know this. But I'm just surprised people still freak out over iPads. I'm not trying to troll or anything. Just wondering what use i could possible get out of this if I already have an iPhone?

 

[NYR]

when do pre orders start? Or when did they start??

The Canadian store is still down.

Hot fucking damn.
My mind is blown.

 

[friskykillface]

time to get an ipad 2



the 3 looked cool but i can wait, though the 4g is temping

 

[Flo_Evans]

got stuck on model selection like many others it seems

dude I made it to accessories!

 

[Nazgul_Hunter]

I literally pressed the last button to finalize checkout when the page died... didn't get my order in :/

 

[kaskade]

Now I think I might just go with the 16gb white. I don't use music and It's really not hard to manage the apps.

At least apple is giving me time to decide.

 

[Wazzim]

Is Retina better than OLED? It looks quite different from OLED screens from what I have seen on the iPhone 4S of a classmate of mine.

 

[Talon]

Yes, but it looks the pricing's changed based on Apple's site. 30 for 2 GB or thereabout - small variance between AT&T and Verizon. 50 for 5 GB.

 

[a secret-boss]

from the model selection. Yes
no contract

 

[reektann]

I'm cringing knowing even once I get past accessories I'll need to login with my Apple ID and I don't think I know the password.

 

[helloresolven]

iOS 5.1 is now available for download.

 

[numble]

They used Vimeo instead of Youtube to demonstrate 4G/LTE, even though they made the Youtube app themselves.

[C.Dark.DN]

I'm thinking about getting this for my Grandma as a Desktop or Notebook alternative.

My only concern is flash websites.

There's a app that loads them on servers right?

 

[reKon]

They are paying for convenience (well if it's the iPad/iPad 2 because the iPad 3 is definitely much more powerful), leave them alone and don't try to argue with them, lol..

 

[yellowjacket25]

I can't even make it past the preorder button.

 

[Stantron]

I'm imagining the servers are getting hammered by thousands of Frys.

 

[Jasoco]

Lol no. I was watching it, and it appears to be the iPhone 4S keynote, not today's keynote.

lol. The page says March 7, 2012. But the video says copyright 2011. Funny. I got the link from Ars Technica on FaceBook I think. Good going, guys!

Edit: NOW IT'S CORRECT

You're comparing two different things. You could have a Retina-class OLED, for instance.

Its not just the more pixels, its the lack of gap between them. amazing

I can't even load the store...

One is a display technology (OLED), and one is a marketing name for extremely high resolution (Retina display).

 

[C.Dark.DN]

I get a We'll Be Back soon on the the website now.

 

[f@luS]

1080P netflix on the new tv.

 

[dvdjamm]

For the iPad 2, no more 32GB and 64GB models? Just the 16GB?

 

[LyleLanley]

Nicely subtle tribute to Steve.

That's from the 4s announcement.

 

[TylerD]

So, what's the point of an iPad and all of this pandemonium going on? Not as powerful as a gaming pc but not as convenient as an iPhone because of size...

Wat. I loves me some apple products but I guess I don't see a need for a tablet personally.

Coupled with secondapps.com/neogaf it is the best Neogaf browsing experience ever!

It is an absolutely wonderful media consumption device.

 

[Chiggs]

I just ordered my second one through Apple's Direct Sales #.

BWAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Why would you buy a 50 inch tv when I can watch tv on my 13 inch tv?????

 

[Gowans]
