In HD. what does that have to do with an ipad? nobody is going to do 300 gig render on an ipad. > Sorry, but your bizarrely limited view of how computing works does not > constrain everyone else.

If apple did that, OxRetard would be over COLA all over again spouting fanboi drivel how extremely well it can connect to the outside world. You know, about the same every cheap netbook does now, just better Face it, cargo cult member, you have shown so far that you guys are just extremely badly informed fanboiz, devoid of any grasp of reality.

That fact that you two even mention this is more telling of your own stupidity. You find removeable storage useful to move data around! Wow. Einstein move over!!!!! Kelsey Bighead still misses the fundamental reasons WHY the standard port is not there on an Apple device. And THAT is, in itself, VERY scary and indicative of why she was unable to understand why 8 gigs on a "phone" were useful to many. Funny how in some cases lots of storage is good. In others its not. (And that was to simplify it for Kelsey as you CAN use external storage with the iPad). |
