[QUOTE="poopgiggle, post: 1379503, member: 6406"] Oh my god stop recommending iPads to people shopping for Kindles. It happens all the time and I f*&king hate that. Yeah, a Kindle isn't a general-purpose computer but it's not meant to be. It's meant to be an e-book reader and it does that very well. I have a portable computing device that can do lots of stuff well. It's called a laptop. If I wanted a portable computing device that was tiny and portable I'd get an Eee PC or whatever netbook people like these days. I also have a portable computing device that isn't much good at anything but it's super-duper-portable. That's my iPhone. If I wanted something that didn't do any of that well at all I guess I'd consider an iPad but I could get a used Glock 19 for the same price and I'd rather have a gun than trendy crap that doesn't do anything I want well.
