ipad - thumbs down

I'm on a ski trip with a friend (teenager, from San Diego, the cultural capital of the world). His unsolicited comments on the ipad:

I'm with him. If the thing were seriously less expensive, it'd be interesting. It's not.


Now, I should probably add that he's now chanting "looser" since I'm taking too long to type up this entry, so maybe I'm not so fond of his opinions after all...
