This one was a little more "fair", IMO:

Cons : thick and heavy ? are you serious. The thing less than 1 pound. Have they held an ipad before?

My favorite part was this little piece of fair unbiased journalism.....
"Costing $599 off-contract is embarrassing when the iPad starts at $499. (Update: Fair point, the iPad 3G starts at $629. But it's got a bigger screen, and this thing still sucks.)" What self respecting person proves himself/herself wrong...and then finishes up with "this thing still sucks"?

It's like it was written by a child or something.

I bought a Tab at T-Mobile yesterday. I have only one complaint about it so far --- the browser is incredibly laggy for larger pages. This is even with plugins (Flash) set to On-Demand. I suspect that the browser may simply not be optimized to display larger amounts of content (due to the larger screen). Other than that, I really like the device.

I saw that review and was dumbfounded by it. In my opinion using terms like "dorkface" and a "fetus in a superfund clean up site" shows an extreme bias by the author. A real author would use terms like "awkward" or "clunky".

Shhesh... Fanboys, so threatened by non "Jobian" products. That would be like me writing " Like an alcohol molecule breaking down in Steve Jobs liver".

which is why i decide not to visit the site. I used to go to the site day per day after day. Until i noticed the trend of just all their editor riding jobs C0#k to the 3rd power. So i just go once ina blue when i'm bored

Yeah I read the review earlier today. This site is horrible. They hate anything without a fruit as the logo of any product.

The fun part is that they were listing the retail of the tab at $699, stated that it had a Snapdragon processor, and a host of inconsistencies.

When I brought them up, Jesus Diaz basically said "yeah well, the thing sucks no matter what it has. I know because I played around with one."

Then they had their nice "f*** you readers" post today.

Classy

Use the Opera or Dolphin HD browser, not only do you get more features but it also improves performance.

I agree the fetus and BP oil spill comments were simply uncalled for...how can you call this "journalism". Apple must be scared, they have some much hate.

Long live the Don't be Evil Droids.
