It's a big iPhone. It's named after a woman's sanitary product. It's going to CHANGE TEH WORLD. ...Meh. Oh, and apparently it lacks Flash support. So fail.

10 hour battery life and 1 month standby is pretty damn impressive though. Sadly this is just an over-sized i-touch.

This thing will probably sell like hotcakes. Good to know Bill Gate's vision from the 90's is being put to good use.

Doesn't even register highly enough on my scale yet to draw my full ire. Maybe later.

I never get first generation anything, but will most likely be a sheep and get this. It sounds exciting to be honest.

You can just walk around Seattle, entering Starbucks and accidentally setting your steel coffee mug down on hipsters' iPads. Then tell them - "oh, I didn't see it there - it was so thin."

They'll be so gratified you'll have time to get away before they can realize you just broke $1000 of marketing genius and chase you down on their fixed-gears.

I'd buy it as a netbook replacement. 10 hour battery life is perfect for transatlantic flights.

This. I'm not as excited over this as I was with the iPhone, but I could see myself buying one of these...depending on the price. Wow, $499 for the base model. I may be picking one of these up after all.

Please tell me people aren't going to walk around with this thing pressed to their ear.
