So the name ended up being iPad. This is amusing for the confusion it’ll doubtless cause among folk who barely distinguish between a and o vowel sounds, and also because it’s vaguely reminiscent of feminine hygeine products. But for the real reason this is a ridiculous product, well… just look at it/him/it:
Clothes, emperor, new. Elephant, room. YOU’RE HOLDING THE WORLD’S BIGGEST MOBILE PHONE AND YOU LOOK DAFT, STEVE.
Either that or he’s shrunk.

I liked my little Samsung NC10. Bought just before Christmas 2008, it was mostly everything the reviews said it would be: small, reasonably powerful, reasonably easy to use, good battery life, and most importantly cheap – especially as I managed to get mine for £250 from Amazon, at a time when the RRP was about 50 quid more.
It lasted until a whole week after the warranty expired before dying on me. The reason for its untimely demise? Bad Lid Design (probably).
