Poll: Consumers not interested in iPad

ipad-touchIn what could probably be only described as "disappointing" for Apple, not too many consumers are saying "iLike" to their latest gadget, the iPad. This was revealed in a recent poll conducted by Retrevo.

 

According to their conducted poll, a whopping 52% answered that they knew about the iPad coming, but are not interested in buying one. This was from 26% prior to the official announcement.

 

The main reason for this disinterest is that consumers really don't feel the need to get one, espcially when they already have their iPhones, which can basically do whatever the iPad promises to do.

This thing will still sell though, even if it isnt as big a success as the iphone is.

It's only a piece of crap for now. Give it two or three years of Apple-style updates, that is to say, minor size, memory, and performance updates, and sell it for about $350 and it might be better off.

maybe (being extremely optimistic here) this will teach apple not to put out over priced crap. They went to far with this one. take every thing about the iPod touch and double it. fail....

But alas, more than likely it will still have record breaking sales. morons.

Only if it had built in go anywhere internet like alot of laptops now are using this would be golden. but alas craple always manages to forget 1 super F***ing important detail in all their devices. Ill stick with my iphizzone 3GS...
