I have a friend who was able to play the iPad for a few minutes during the announcement。
- the LCD is beautiful and the view angle is almost 180 degree。
- the 1GHZ CPU is blazing fast. He loaded the web game Word of Lordcraft on it. It performed beautifully.
-No multi-tasking, but you can still listen to music while doing something else
- no camera, no text messaging。
- the system is iPhone OS 3.2。
- the keyboard is ok, but not great. It is not as sensitive as in the demo.
-it is confirmed no Flash support

Defective title, wrong forum, but thank you for the post (I think).

Made it up all on me lonesome, just for that post.

(Oh, and in case someone missed it [y’know, ’cause I forgot to say it], chūnjié means ‘spring festival/Chinese New Year’)

This has been the most intersting and insightful post I've ever read on MacNN. I don't think ANYONE realized there was no camera and no flash support! Brilliant!

So the new spam trend is to post random threads which include non-sequiturs or random apropos to an iPhone game which needs to be searched for?

This is at least the third such reference to that game I've seen from newbie spammers

Funny thing:

"Word of Lordcraft" yields only two Google hits, both to the same post in other forms.

Spam FAIL

Dumbot can't type.

Correcting for idiocy, it turns out to be an online role-playing game. No surprise, there.

They misspelled the name of their own product. No SEO value there.

We banned and deleted the one who got the name right.
