don't buy one.

instead use the money for a therapist to deal with your issues of seeking approval. this thread is silly and reeks of attention whore-ism.

money is not an issue brah - great, another cry for help.

this thread should be renamed, why do i feel so inadequate and why am i seeking approval from people i don't even know on the internet?

they really should rename this forum "twitter's macrumors ways to waste bandwidth"
 
Nobody can tell you if you'll find it useful or not. I did, and got one.

Oh, and yeah. You sound like the worlds biggest douche. Get off the high horse. Nobody cares if you can afford one or not.

I know for a fact that you are not talking to me..
 
Please don't buy one...

There's someone out there that really does want one, knows why they want it, and may not get it if you get one, while they are in so much demand.

Wait till they show up at Wal Mart and get one.
 
If you don't mess with one and IMMEDIATELY think of TONS of ways to use it in your own life, don't even consider buying one.

It's either for you or it's not. You have to know yourself.

"Convince me" threads don't make any sense at all. If you can't figure what usefulness it can do for you by now, the iPad is pretty much not for you.
 
This is a sick joke, right? Can't you read the 100000 threads that answer this already? WTF is wrong with people?

Some just cry out for attention--)))) Pretty sad really when one can not make up their own m ind! LOL!

Best thing he/she could is go back to what they were doing before posting this thread! ;):D
 
The iPad isn't about knowing what you can do with one. It's about discovering what it can do, and how easy (or hard) doing those things is on a touchscreen tablet. You don't buy one for a good reason. Buy one to discover how good it is. With Apple products it takes more than reason to buy. You have to love the product looks and Apple world a little too.

Please buy one. Heck, buy two. I own Apple stock. :D
 
Why exactly is it our job to make your purchasing decisions?

These threads are fail.
 
These threads are fail.
Thanks for showing us all what threads "are fail", Qwynne. Nothing like a fail notice from a wise forum member to shorten a thread's lifetime. ;)

IMO, any post made just to declare a thread "are fail" is a waste of bits and a grab for attention.

OP: What can you do with an iPad? Magic things. It's magical! :D
 
Sitting in shade, munching on peanut brittle, at farmers market, waiting on son who is with tutor, sulfing, giving time of next bus (bus app) to stranger and jusst relaxing with ipad 3g......priceless
 
Simple.

You already wasted your money on overpriced gadgets; iPhone and MacBook.

Time for one more.

That's what I did.
 
Did you really have to make a thread for a Twitter question? Your in a fricken iPad sub-forum so why don't you read how people are enjoying their iPads.

Go to apple.com to find out how to use an iPad.

Jeez.
 
I do agree with some of these responses, but at the same time, it's a legit question many are asking.
 
I know for a fact that you are not talking to me..

Really??? How old are you?? should have just said, "I know you are but what am I".

C'Mon, you post an absolutely moronic thread and when people call you out on it you respond with nothing more than what I call internet Bullying.

1st: what makes you think anyone gives a damn if you buy one or not? we dont.
in fact, please dont. It will leave another one for someone who really wants one.

2nd: It would be better and more interesting if you could bolster your posts with fact, opinions, or any legitimate argument at all.
instead you sound like the bully at school after the nerd stood up to you, "I know you're not talking to me".

the only thing missing from that is you standing up as your friends fake hold you back so you dont beat the crap out of him.
