Where? There are occasions where using "and" to begin a sentence is acceptable. That is one of them.

But I see what Alpha was talking about. Maybe Apple should have just used commas? lol

No it is not. It should be as follows: Introducing the new iPad, with the stunning Retina display, 5MP iSight camera, and ultrafast 4G LTE. In no way is it correct to interrupt this sentence into multiple small sentences. Take the last sentence in Apple's promo; And ultrafast 4G LTE. Is that an acceptible sentence by itself? No, so it can't be a sentence with the other fragmented sentences.
It took me a while to realize why they spelled revolutionary wrong. It has to do with the retina display

I'll agree with you.
Stopping mid-sentence, putting a full stop, and continuing on with the idea in another sentence is getting really old, especially if you look around their website for a bit (because they do this SOOO many times).
Spotted the deliberate mistake.At this point in time, you're just splitting hairs, mate.

None of the other sentences work because they are fragments.
Sorry for the threadjack; continue on with your purchases.

Add me to the "I got the iPad 3" list. At first I bought the 64GB AT&T LTE in Black, but then I came to my senses and just bought the 64GB Wifi in Black.
Yes... I bought two iPad's today, but one was canceled. My bank account hates me right now.
Couple that with my latest purchase from yesterday, my new Panasonic 65" VT30 Plasma (i'll post pics when I arrives), and I'm one broke geek.

My 2004 Subaru Imprezza "Check Engine Light" came on during the way home from the hospital with our newborn. Took it into the shop today and its a failed oxygen sensor. NZ$900 lighter for that, plus there is another one on its way out but OK for the time being

Heh, check my sig.
Though the new
TV with 1080p output might be a better companion.
$900 for an O2 sensor??? I think you got ripped off! I mean, I hope you at least got it installed for that price.Image

To be fair that's about $743 USD, but it's still very expensive. You can probably buy it from anywhere between $40 to $250 USD depending on the model and brand, and anyone can install them in just a few minutes. It's possible parts are just really expensive in NZ.
