Wouldn't it be faster to just add some zeros to a number in a bank account? In the end, that is all that the modern stock market (AKA one giant ponzi scheme) does. Wall St. does sod all as far as producing real goods, real jobs and any real value.
It was made fairly clear early on (CNET, Engadget, Macrumors, etc) that the retina display was not going to make it onto the iPad 2, but would likely show up on the rumored iPad 3 that will possibly debut in September.
You really believe that rumor mongering reader/eye-ball attracting total bullshit on CNET, Engadget, Macrumors, etc ???
You really think that a mobile hand held battery powered device can push data around fast enough to update a 2048x1536 (higher resolution than most HDTVs and flat panel monitors) display at a reasonable frame rate?
Don't be stupid - use your brain to think once in awhile.
Hitler (SS) and Stalin (KBG) would have given both of their testicles to have the amount of information that the Zuckerberg has about you and several hundred million of your friends...
A government demonstrates that it puts the interests of the rich above the interests of the many, even when the results mean plenty of injustice for the many.
It's called The Golden Rule: "He who has the gold, makes the rules". It's been like that since before written history.
And if iOS is the best platform ever, but no developers are developing for it... consumers (eventually) won't buy it, because they can get all the cool apps and features they want on Android.
The point that you are missing here is that developers also need to pay the bills and feed themselves and their families. Right now all the money (AKA making a living) is in iOS apps and work. Until very recently you could only make a few pesos off of Android apps in only 9 countries.
Slashdot Mirror
Marketing and Advertising are two buckets of bullshit meant to extract people's hard earned money from them.
"the friction of social networking is still high on mobile" mean?
I've heard and been able to parse all the corporate (mis-)management bullshitspeak until this one.
Wait, Twitter has a community?
I believe it is called the 'Twitterverse'.
Personally I prefer 'Twatterverse'.

There's an app for that.
Oh, Crapp!
Schmidt Happens
You're so clever! Maybe Google should offer you a job...
geeks everywhere adopt Android
Geeks Want 'Roids!
In addition to the $180,000+ national debt per US citizen. Just keeps on piling up, don't it?
7" form factor
Too small and like all the other 7" units, has that stupid wide screen form factor.
supports flash, multi-tasking
Battery will last less than an hour or two on a good day.
POSIX compliant QNX OS
Compatible with nothing and no apps.
In other words, über fail just waiting to happen.
You absolutely do NOT want a garbage collector on a mobile device with limited memory and CPU power.
This is just one of the many things that Apple got 101% right in iOS.

Android -> Hemorrhoid: Both end with the same sound...
What Flash problem?
The problem that it refuses dry up and blow away and continues to hang around like a rancid stench.
Android -> Quadroid => Hemorrhoid.
Mark my words: Idiocracy is inevitable. Palin is just the forefront...
Idjit! That won't compile. Try:

What can you do with an iPad that I can't do with linux on any other tablet from 5 years ago?
A normal everyday person can use the iPad. A slashdot reading geek is required for "linux on any other tablet from 5 years ago".
Once you get that through your thick nerd skull, you too will grok the enlightenment.
Android IS linux
Android is the 'Windows' of the mobile world - everywhere like a bad smell...

I wager 1,000,000 quatloos that it won't be released that month.
First, Gene Simmons was born [as] Chaim Witz in Tirat Carmel, Haifa, Israel in 1949. The rest followed naturally from there.
