Love the iPad?

After Bob Newhart

Ring... ring... ring...
Hello? – Hey Walt baby how you doing?
Still on vacation – you crazy kids!
You made it to California, fantastic.
Silicon Valley, wow!
No, I can’t guess who you ran into, wait a minute you had a traffic accident?
Oh good ... no, I really can’t guess who.
Steve J? What the Steve J, the Apple guy, terrific!
He’s really excited about his new gizmo?
What is it this time?
He had you send me one? Great, I’ll check.
Oh yes, there’s a big package here, would that be it?
WOW! Tell Steve thanks
A KING SIZED iPHONE.
What d’you mean it’s not an iPhone? It looks like an iPhone!
It’s an iPad – is that somewhere for my iPhone to live then?
No?
Right, so it’s more like an iPOD
Oh! Now you mention it does look a giant iPOD too.
Yep, got it!
An iPod that plays vinyl FANTASTIC!
But how the hell is it going fit in my shirt pocket?
No?
Oh!
OK Walt, one more shot.
Got it!
It’s a notebook with a wireless keyboard! Let me have another look in the box?
Tell Steve the keyboard is missing!
What do you mean it doesn’t have one? If I want a keyboard I’ll have buy it separately?
Hmmm, I see. So to sum up –
1 It looks like a king sized iPhone that won’t make phone calls
2 it also looks like an iPod that won’t fit in my pocket
3 it looks like a notebook without a keyboard and no protection for the screen
Have you been to the beach yet?
Oh by the way, if you see Steve J again tell him the Emperor loved his new clothes; bye for now Walt!
