[citation][nom]Chugot9218[/nom]How bout if it's not purchased at an Apple store? Anyone have any insight on that?[/citation]

For years and years now they have done this around product announcements. The length of time has varied anywhere from 14 days to 30 days. Nothing new.

On of the downsides of having such intense launches and fans. I have to say this doesn't seem like as big of a deal as previous launches though -- ipad 3 and 4 arent really that different. Unlike, say Ipad 1 and 2.

Yeah, because Droid RAZR owners didn't feel cheated when the RAZR Maxx was released shortly after.

"...they just it just a few days ago..." - has anyone taught you to read what you wrote BEFORE sending it to go live... just sayin'

but on topic - too damn bad if u just bought one, Apple can care less about its customers now go buy a Newer one, they're not out to make friends, they're out to please the shareholders, which I might add the shares are down to low 600's, time to buy in!

Hmm, that's why they have the highest consumer approval rating of any tech company. And have for years. They have been trading back purchases made just before releases for many years now. It's fine to hate Apple, even if it is a bit silly. But at least be truthful.

Apple couldn't care less about it's customers, this whole exercise stinks of a cynical plot to steal the thunder from Microsoft's Friday release of Windows 8 and Surface
...
They are so bitter they just can't stand for anyone else to have any kind of media attention, well, keep it up and watch the iOS App for MS Office just fail to appear and the business world drops iPads like a bad smell when they can get full Office, Exchange and a real OS on a Surface Pro

And Rev Jim Jones' followers loved him and they all still drank the Koolaid, the iPad is a toy, always has been a toy and always will be a toy - I like toys, but if you want people to be truthful then realise that the business world is where the real money is in the IT game. Those Fortune 500 companies that are using iPads are only doing so because there has never been a viable alternative. Tell me the Pegatron made Surface Pro is not a beautiful, powerful bit of hardware, and i'll show you a liar.

The Surface is kinda meh on hardware. Not horrible, but nothing worth praising either. As far as Windows tablets go, they have a pretty bad track record in this area. Maybe this will be different? It may be, but that is still a big unknown. I do hope though that it kicks Androids butt. Unreliable, flaky, and upgrades being a gamble isn't really all that hard to beat.

He said Surface Pro, which is not going to be released yet? How do you know it's meh?

I can't speak for all Android tablets but Asus' Transformer Pad Infinity (w/ICS or the now available Jelly Bean) is just fine for those that like the Android EcoSystem. The hardware and build quality are great.

I was referring to the Surface R/T that has been reviewed. As you point out, nobody actually knows about the pro. My admittedly flawed crystal ball says it will do OK at best.

Why people are making a big deal of little differences between iPad3 and iPad4? It's a little faster.. so what.

Same display just slightly newer processor which won't really reach full potential any time soon.
