It still baffles me that there's a porn industry. The amount of free porn out there is staggering. Seriously, you get more pictures of naked women off google than you can look through in your entire life. Torrent sites offer so much porn that the pope would start crying if he knew.

The big question is; who the fuck is stupid enough to want to buy porn apps?

The censored apps aren't really porn apps, which is the problem. The app in question is an app that identifies and locates hubs of gay social life in NYC, and invariably that includes things like a bar called The Cock. What Apple is censoring isn't pornography, but the promotion of the idea that sexuality is an aspect of life.

Meanwhile the random gay hookup app Grindr is still up, as is the Playboy app, as is the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit app. Apple's full of shit.

This is what I'm saying! It's retarded that they are bitching about some "here is an app with a picture of a somewhat unclothed man" when I have just now googled "double penetration" and received thousands of results

That's a damn shame. Now we only have that Lenovo thing to fall back on.

{Enter super-optimistic future speculative mode}

I'm thinking of what that IdeaPad, a laptop with a removable tablet screen, would be capable of if it were to be mass-marketed. Humour me for a bit, and imagine a world where every person who uses a computer has one of these: A laptop to use at home or at work, combined with a tablet to use for mobile connectivity. For these two purposes, you can engineer the two units to work complementary. In the tablet you put wifi, bluetooth, a webcam, a flash memory drive, a microphone and a headphone jack, making it suitable for using it on the road. In the laptop dock you can then put a video card, extra RAM, an extra hard disk, a DVD drive and speakers, so you don't come anything short when you need to get to work.
Doing this gives you another use of the tablet unit, namely, a mobile desktop. Think about it: As a company, when every employee has a uh, tabtop, let's go with that, you can increase their working efficiency by providing them with a laptop dock for work. Then they can commute with the tablet, plug it in at their cubicle, and synchronize their home computer with their work computer. Documents you need to work on can be taken home by saving them on the tablet, and music you'd like to listen to at work can be taken from home the same way. You can do the same with schools or airports or where-ever. That would be cool, wouldn't it?

I'm also wondering how the problem of size could be handled. Have touchscreens that can fold been invented yet?

On my flight to Spain a few weeks ago, the dude across the aisle and one row ahead of me (ie. the seat I could see most clearly) pulled out at various points his Macbook, iPhone, and iPad. I rolled my eyes at the cheesiness of this walking Apple Store (he probably hangs around coffee shops showing off,) but I must say I got really intrigued when he used a stylus to draw stuff on his iPad.

Drawing on the touchscreen using a stylus is the primary reason I would want an iPad. Not gonna buy a $500 sketchbook, but if any other compelling uses come up then I'll be tempted.

The Courier ist kaput. Sadness.

HP are cancelling the Slate too.

Once again Apple are going to make a killing by managing to get a product in the stores, which somehow their rivals are incapable of.

They aren't exactly killing it, they're planning on it not running Windows 7 anymore, they are looking into a mobile OS for it. Admittedly, that pretty much kills any interest I have in it, but hey.

Wasn't W7 developed with that giant computer table thing in mind anyway? Why would that not be great for an ipad-like device?

The giant computer table is the Surface, which is entirely ridiculous because it seems like it's just there for large companies to fuck about with. It's not really practical for much you'd use one for in the home at the moment.

And yeah, being able to draw and scribble things into the iPad would be lovely, another reason why I'd probably get fairly good use out of one. However, having said that, not buying it until it has a front facing camera, because it seems kind of silly without one, as it would basically be my mini computer for the basics. Although, with the iPhone looking like it's getting a front facing camera, it's only real benefit to me at the moment would be the larger screen.

The iphone app division of Apple doesn't seem to be abating in its quest to be as embarrassing as possible, as the Atari Teenage Riot app is being help up due to concerns that it might cause real riots, through noise. Apple is also urging its employees to insulate their houses against chemtrails.

i have four requirements for anything like this:

1) expandable storage (sd card preferably)
2) at least one standard usb port
3) replaceable battery
4) no software required to add files from my computer

if it has these things, then i will officially pronounce it 'Better Than Ipad" and buy the hell out of it.

In other news, the Millennium Digital Copyright Act or whatever it's called was amended for the year and part of it includes consumer protection against lawsuits for "jailbreaking" devices, which means that if you want to hack your Apple products to use different software configurations (or want your iphone to be compatible with providers other than AT&T) Apple has no recourse beyond voiding your warranty and denying you tech support.

In other other news, this thing is apparently going to sell for $150 at K-Mart* pretty soon.

http://www.augenus.com/indexhome.html/GENTOUCH.html

7" 800x480 touchscreen (doesn't say if it's resistive or capacitive)
802.11 b/g WiFi
800 mhz processor (definitely ARM, doesn't name manufacturer)
Android 2.1 with Android Market capabilities
2 GB built in storage, can accept up to 16 gig MicroSDHC card

Is it good? Is it rubbish? Who knows! We'll have to wait a couple weeks for the reviews to come in.

* Yes apparently K-Mart still exists. I'm as surprised as you are.
