Following up on my Onion post a few weeks back on a Frantic Steve Jobs Stays Up All Night Designing Apple Tablet I thought I'd do an update on The Onion's article Apple Finally Unveils iPad.
Here's most of what they say:
Apple CEO Steve Jobs unveiled Apple's new tablet computer, the iPad, during a presentation in San Francisco last week. Here are some of its features:
- Awkward name enables Twitter users to make the same joke over and over and over again
- Super slick design makes it impossible to hold, pick up, or stop from sliding down the street
- Softly whimpers if left alone for too long
- Photo album of the Jobs family summer vacation in Aruba
- Free pair of black-rimmed glasses, turtleneck, and position at New York City architecture firm
- To ensure that its users receive the constant public attention they crave, the iPad will emit the phrase "Hey, does that guy have an iPad?" every eight minutes
(No, I'm not dead. I might actually have a real post later today.)
