......Do I need one?

Seeing it's summer, I'd say an iTampon is much more comfortable.

especially for swimming

No, unless you want your work and home emails, web sites, presentations, spreadsheets, critical documents, YouTube videos, favorite movies, music and books, family photos, bloomberg financials, weather radar, travel planner, synthesizer racks, and your air hockey table at your finger tips at all times.

need? Uh no more like a want...I'm with Blir on this one, endless hours of quiet kids in this thing

There's no iPorn app, so no.

[/quote] Yes, it does all those great things, but if someone hands me a USB thumb drive or a SD Memory card with some photos or videos that I'd like to view/copy I'm out of luck. Would it have hurt them to add a USB port and SD Card slot to a $600 device? Sheesh.

In our web-connected world, your complaint is that it doesn't have the equivalent of a floppy disc?

My biggest fear is not having a pocket big enough to hold it. It costs $600??? Crap, I have been dropping Father's Day hints but there is no way my kids love me that much.

[/quote] For the time being yes. There are still cases that I'll pull the SD card out of my camera and stick it in my Wii, DVD player, Laptop, MP3 Player and most any other media device. I guess I'm old school?

This is exactly where the 80s and modern technology perfectly sync up.

I've read that you can't replace the battery yourself. And you can't add any native software unless you obtain it/purchase it through the Apple Store. That's a dealbreaker in my opinion. I'd rather invest my time and money in an android-powered device, thank you.

What is this iPad you speak of? I still don't own an iPod!

[SonicBoom]

How about an iPan? It cooks and plays music at the same time.
