And the "your Mom's basement" thing is odd. He seems to have a serious axe to grind about... something.

Only perverted basement dwellers look at porn.

 

[shantyman]

made the mistake of reading this. The dude must be in desperate need of web clicks.

Spreading tho noise over three pages bears that out.

 

[Avixph]

Dunno what happened when typing, I meant a 500$ Apple gift card from his work.

I know that.

 

[Dartastic]

Yup. iPad tomorrow. Hype. As. Fuck.

 

[Got the Shakes]

Somehow my girlfriend found me an orange official Apple branded Smart Cover at Target. Orange is my favorite color, and Apple stopped making them months ago. I'm officially ready for my iPad's arrival tomorrow.

 

[The_Inquisitor]

So question on iCloud. I went into iTunes the other night and downloaded a few iPad apps. When I set up my iPad, will it auto install these, or I will I still need to go into the App store and select them.

 

[CrunchinJelly]

Don't tell me that. Don't tell me that...

Just think, you could have the shiny new iPad in just 3 hours time...

 

[mrklaw]

My UPS tracking is working properly now. Showing up as in Tamworth at 19:00, got quite a way to travel down to me in Windsor. Hope its not too late tomorrow, need to pop out for a cover

Real Racing 2 also got an update. Runs at 2048x1536 with 4xAA.

 

[Diablohead]

At work but finishing soon, im only a 5 minute walk to my local apple store. So. Tempted. Lol

I want to hear plenty of feedback, gaf! And performance tests!

Think I am heading to the apple store today after work. Going to look at cases and decide what I want for my iPad. Will order tomorrow.

Now I know which game I'll be using to show off my new iPad

 

[mrklaw]

Hey, are the red leather smart covers only sold in apple stores? Tried a few local retailers today and they only had 9 colours - everything except red.

 

[razgriz417]

O god, Walmart is doing a midnight release? Shit... Welp I have a 16 gb coming in tomorrow that I plan to return and a 32gb that I wanted to keep coming next Friday. Should I go to Walmart tonight and return the other 32gb as well?

 

[no_to_co]

Hey, are the red leather smart covers only sold in apple stores? Tried a few local retailers today and they only had 9 colours - everything except red.

Don't get it! The edges will turn black within days of using it. Go with the black cover. And yes, all product red stuff is only sold in Apple stores.

 

[Flo_Evans]

Wonder what the native res of the game is.

Isn't that the old one? I am not seeing a demo of the new one.

 

[CrunchinJelly]

Yes, all project(RED) stuff is Apple Store only, I believe.

Red is Apple Store exclusive, yeah.

 

[giga]

Interesting that the A5X no longer stacks the memory as a package on package chip like the A4 and A5 did.

They're now two separate 512 MB modules:

Removable heatsink and the bigass die.

 

[MetatronM]

Ah, my iPad departed Louisville about 30 minutes ago.

But its beautiful. Its not that bad is it?

Heads up uk gaf - possibility that JL will sell online at midnight for pickup instore tomorrow.

 

[cyberheater]

I'm surprised AusGAF isn't in here lauding it up...

Too busy playing with it!

Alright, one last push to help me decide on smart cover.

Navy or Red.

Heading to the Apple store in downtown SF after work today to get it.

So far, I have 3 votes for red and none for navy (though blue is my favorite color).

 

[Keylime]

It's crazy to consider finding a 24-hour Wal-Mart and camping it tonight and buying an iPad with the intent to just return the one that eventually gets delivered to me tomorrow right?

...that's stupid, right?

...right?

I have the white iPad and the leather navy smart cover. It looks fantastic! Red might work on a black iPad, I'd imagine more so than the navy.

 

[cyberheater]

Amazing if true:-

epic tweeted IBII would get an update to support retina display

Guess I'll be trying this for the first time ever tomorrow. Figured it would never run well on my iPad 1.

 

[captive]

our realtor had the red smart cover, that thing was nasty, red in some spots black in others.

I dont like red! So I vote for the non-red option.

So one for the navy/white combo. Cool.

And yes, ipad in question is going to be white.

Black iPad, red. White iPad, navy.

Now 3 and 3... Getting close.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

Yes, all project(RED) stuff is Apple Store only, I believe.

how much extra is the markup no the project(RED) stuff?

[Keylime]

Yeah stay at home.

I mean...no reasonable person would do this, right?!

Ha ha! HA! HA.... HA! ...ha...

 

[LJ11]

Do we have an App thread?

Looking for a recommendations on a download manager, something to handle rar and other files.

 

[Einbroch]

White and navy anything looks sharp. Red and white reminds me of Valentine's Day or candy canes.

[kruskev]

black only for me. Black bezel is the original intended design and it just looks way better.

Your princess is in another castle

You can use 3rd party browsers to download files off the internet and the app Filer lets you unpack zips and rar files in which you can then play in 3rd party video players like AVPlayerHD and whatnot.

Totally possible.
