While I'm here, I completely agree with whoever (sorry, hard day here at LaHacienda) said earlier ~ Thank god it's something I don't want for a change.

What I'm hoping Apple will announce in the near future is a version of the iPod Touch with 3G data-only capabilities. I'd buy one of those in a heartbeat.

Lea, now you & I & the rest of the female Mac users know that Steve did not consult with his wife or daughters on the name.
It's obvious that there were no females at the round table when it came time to come up with a name for this giant iTouch. If any were on the design team, I bet the "design" would have matched the name.
But seriously, folks. (I'm trying, I really am. *snicker.*) Giving a brand new product a name that's only one friggin' letter different than the name of your other really successful product?
"Whoa, check out my iPad."
"That's bigger than I thought it would be."
"iPAD!!"
"Oh. I thought you said . . ."
"Honey, have you seen my iPad?"
"Yeah, Brenna's, got it, listening to Garbage."
"iPAD!!"
"Oh. I thought you said . . ."
I could do this all day.
