Here are my top 10 resons why iPad is rubbish (this is why i didn’t buy one).

1. It isn’t called the iSlate, which would have been a far better name
2. I can carry an iPhone in my pocket, and use it to make calls without looking like a pretentious idiot
3. In the demo Steve Jobs gave, it didn’t have flash playback
4. Looks like multitasking didn’t make the cut. So no good for women
5. There’s no camera
6. It runs the iPhone OS, not OSX
7. The iPad doesn’t have even a single USB port
8. The battery is built-in, so can’t be replaced easily
9. It will force the Kindle to be cheaper, which is bad because that’s a terrible gadget that nobody should buy
10. Did I say the name iPap is terrible?
