If you wanna use it, better stay inside.

Exactly how can you "sue" a manufacturer for a product failure if it didn't result in personal or economic harm? How have these people been harmed?

And why not just fucking return the thing?

My iphone got too hot when I left it in my car, gave me a warning. Yeah, it sucked that it needed to cool off. OTOH, my phone kept itself from being damaged and needing to be replaced. So there's that. I like my iPhone, maybe there are better phones out there, but I like mine. As for the iPad, I think it's cool, but unnecessary. However, while there are other phones that might be better than iPhone, what better options for a lightweight portable tablet-style device are out there?

What the iPad haters fail to realize is, not everyone wants to open up a netbook and type on a keyboard. Touchscreens are just a lot easier to use while standing/walking. Yeah yeah, the iPad is just a giant iTouch, no shit......But what's it's competition?

You can turn a netbook or laptop into a touch screen for cheap.

There are other tablets out there and there are some really nice ones about to come out. They don't have a shiney apple logo or have a little i in front of the name though.
