Allegedly much finer adjustment (1.2dB vs. 2dB) but that won't mean much if its max attenuation is really only -40dB. Most folks have issues with the first 20dB of adjustment on typical steppers which is accomplished in the first 5 steps.

GTFO, seriously? It's 71 inside my house right now with the doors and windows WFO. I'm worried I'm going to have to start mowing the grass soon.

I am a bit surprised that they didn't include a pair of earbuds with it. They must figure that everyone has 10 pairs of them by now so why bother.

Just go to the store Mike. If you end up with a spare you'll have no problem selling it.

If the specs are right I think it'd probably suck - 1.2db/step x 33steps = max attenuation of 40dB. It might be worth buying just the switch though and populating it yourself which Craig could easily do.

Food for thought - I wonder if all the people buying the 16GB WIFI models on Ebay for $600+ are international folks? I also love that there are folks on Craigslist already trying to get $900 for the 32GB version.

They got the right earpiece spot on on mine, but the left has yet to fit right and causes pain. So I got a second set of impressions done and I hope that they get it right this time.

Would you really have wanted to deal with the Horde?

Mine are back at Fisher for a second refit.

And if anyone deserved it, you did. Congrats Ryan, I'm psyched for you.

The kid will still be harder and more expensive. Here's to hoping the offer gets accepted and that everything works out on the plus side of things.

I'm not in favor of this, at all. I think it seriously devalues the tournament and is just a grab for more $$.

This is certainly an interesting development but I'm waiting for a major institution to adopt the iPad as the default textbook or something along those lines. I'm beginning to think the biggest impediment to the iPad's success may be Apple's ability to make them fast enough...

They probably allowed it because Netflix's options for streaming content are pretty awful. I looked on my PS3 tonight, I struggled to find anything worth watching and the lack of high-def content is a great big pile of fail. I can only hope that the iPad app will kick them in the ass to actually offer some current, desirable content.

So any of you know anything about the HE-5LE?

I wish we could fast forward about a month from Saturday to hear what people are saying and how useful they're finding iPads. There's little doubt in my mind that initially it'll be almost a resounding success but I want a bit of the shine to wear off and hear some real opinions. I'm counting on you Stretch/Mike/Dan/others.

This. It's not so much that flash is obsolete it's that your website will seem annoying to the probable millions of customers.

I take it this means you won't be sending yours with her? Where's the love?

I guess more to point is how do you see yourself using it? Would you ever really be so far from a wifi hotspot that it'd be worth it?

I'd reread that article about why you don't want the 3G built in model, Dinny. If memory serves you hated AT&T's 3G service in NYC much like I hate it in NH.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu I will admit that the more days that pass and the more actual features that get shown the more likely I am to buy one.

That would be sad, Netflix would make a very compelling iPad app. Although I agree with Dan that it seems somewhat unlikely given Apple's desire to sell you exactly that type of content through the iTunes store.
