I'm trying to justify buying an iPad and having troble.. I won't use my phone as much which I already pay a monthly fee for. Basically the only reason I want one at this point is just to have one.

 

[MrOctober]

Somebody haul out a dump truck full of hot dogs for C.C. so we can get on the board with our defense only team.

Jailbreak the iphone, download MYWI from Cydia, it turns your 3G connection into a wifi hotspot, then buy the ipad wifi only and you got internet wherever you want.

 

[Mileena]

Basically the only reason I want one at this point is because of the Apple logo.

that didn't stop ravien!

 

[Chris R]

Damnit I forgot. Now that baseball season started, the year long ESPN circle jerk of all things Yankees and Red Sox has begun

Spoiler

GO MARINERS!

So he can carry around a iPhone, and an oversized iPod Touch? What's the point?

 

[MrOctober]

Granderson is on my fantasy team so if anyone has to crush a home run against us I'll take him.

I heard you could make your iPhone a wifi hotspot before. Sometimes I wish I had an iPhone because of how awesome that actually sounds.

 

[ravien56]

Regardless, he's gonna carry around his iphone with him because its his phone and the ipad isn't just a oversized ipod Touch.

I actually forgot you don't have a iphone terror. I'm sure you can tether it though?

Yea Its pretty awesome, I just got it a few days ago. It destroys the battery but whatever.

 

[MrOctober]

I have fucking Posada on my bench though and he already went deep as well. Fuck.

 

[Jet Grind Radio!]

I love my iPhone. Internet everywhere is awesome.

I do need to look into making it a hotspot. Stupid WEP DS.

Would you rather hear about Brett Favre every day?

 

[birdman]

That is one of the main reasons I was thinking about why it was awesome. :lol

 

[Xevren]

I wish my city at least had one sports team that didn't blow monstrous ass every year.

Fuck KU. Jayhawk fans are the worst. I'm glad they got assraped as early as they did this year.

ITS NOT AN OVERSIZED IPOD TOUCH.

 

[Mileena]

They got fluked, Duke is gonna poop on Butler. Would have been such a better tournament with a Duke/Kansas championship game.

 

[ravien56]

Look what Jim Lee just did with Sketchpro with the ipad.

 

[birdman]

Pfft, yeah that's cool and all, but can he do speadsheets with the seamlessness of a PC?

 

[overthehill99]

Look what Jim Lee just did with Sketchpro with the ipad.

Cool. I'm sure he could have done something 10x better with a real tablet.

 

[Chris R]

I'd rather have them STFU and not air Sportscenter half the day.

 

[Costanza]

Goddamnit Costanza, it was a joke.

 

[MrOctober]

You can play 10 times better games on consoles so portable systems shouldn't exist.


The magazine reader on the iPad is fucking sweet. There are some really cool features that if I was more into I'm sure I'd be all over it. I think it's actually too big though. Like it's uncomfortable to carry anywhere.

 

[Mileena]

Just watch Mike & Mike and PTI.

 

[MrOctober]

Mike Cameron looks like Dizzee Rascal.

That's not the point. That drawing was done by a professional. Games are a lesuire activity. Professionals aren't going to take a step down just because the device is portable, or the "cool" thing.

You talking about the Marvel app? It looks amazing. I'm trying to get Scott Pilgrim to sycn on my iphone and shit keeps fucking up.

 

[Costanza]

yea I read some free issues of Amazing Spiderman on the Marvel app earlier, its sooo nice.

Any artist who draws off inspiration should be able to have a way to get out their art right when it hits them instead of having to wait until they get home and forgetting whatever idea they had.

 

[Ridley327]

Those artists tend to have tablet PCs already.

JUST SAYING.

I saw Wired magazine. That's all I've seen really.

How's comic Zeal?

You can get it on the iphone, it looks so sick.

 

[Natakuu]

Damn straight. I live in Indiana so I've heard nothing but constant shit about how Butler's gonna win. Fat chance:lol Let's go Blue Devils

 

[Archie]

JUST SAYING.

But the Apple logo makes it cool and hip.

 

[Natakuu]

I can't wait until all the boring iPad talk ends here.

 

[MrOctober]

The Apple logo means things are more streamlined and easier to use. Generally.

 

[Mileena]

I can't wait until all the boring iPad talk ends here.

Yes plz.

 

[TheGreatDave]

Yes, let's talk about shitty American sports instead.

 

[MrOctober]

Yeah we should talk about cool sports like cricket.

 

[Natakuu]

Yes, let's talk about shitty American sports instead.

At least in sports there will be a winner and loser, the discussion will progress. This is just redundant and stupid.

 

[Mileena]

Yeah we should talk about cool sports like cricket.

:lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol

Dave annihilated.

 

[birdman]

Yeah we should talk about cool sports like cricket.

Just wait till the Cricket Defense Force comes in here, there's gonna be a shitload of chirping.

 

[Terrordactyl]

No the point is my phone does 90 percent of what the ipad does. Why would I need a bulkier version? And you can have any verizon phone be a hotspot, for a fee of course. There's nothing id ever use that for. My browser is sufficent.

 

[Natakuu]

:lol :lol :lol

 

[TheGreatDave]

All team sports are shitty.

 

[birdman]

Oh thank God, somebody actually laughed at that.

 

[overthehill99]

Fuck We Rule. I was growing Onions, got home today and my whole farm was dead.

 

[Mileena]

Dave likes golf, Weezer and long walks on the beach.
