So since of course I’m so anti-gadgetry…the iPad seems pretty lame. According to Facebook statuses, Apple enthusiasts are disappointed by it. To me, it looks like a big iPhone or iTouch and it doesn’t seem to really improve on anything, and it’s definitely not unique enough to be something totally different.

Haha that’s amazing.
PS thanks for saying I referred you to Republic…I got $10 off my haircut today!
It’s totally wacky! And I always forget it’s going to happen, so it’s like a fun surprise each month.
And a PS for your...
