The iPad does not come with Wings.

So after whining whole afternoon yesterday about not able to launch the game and my urge to shoot some mobs, i went back to my old faithful "Grinding Story" private server. Funny thing is, after few hours of mob killing spree with long alt-tab periods in between to chat and facebook/ blog surfing, i don't feel the same addiction towards it as like before. And today from when i boot up my lappie until now, i don't have any strong feeling to click on the mushroom icon. Does that just proves something? That addiction can really be cured not by resisting it, instead ignoring it or finding something else to focus on. Hey, not bad for a start.

Today while browsing my Google Reader feeds, i came across numerous posts regarding the new product from Apple, iPad. Mostly are jokes regarding the name they had came up with, like this. And also regarding the product itself which looks like an over sized iPod. No doubt all these hype is really actually (or so i think) some kind of marketing scheme from Apple. But it has really spark up some (or should i say a LOT) of lame jokes like, "I keep asking my boyfriend to run to the store to pick one of these up for me, but he's just too embarrassed to do it. " I bet you can come up with more.

On the other hand, i am curious at how the product sales would look like for the next few months. Would this kind of negative marketing success, or would it fail terribly. Although something tells me, as much sales the product is going to get, the salesperson at the Apple stores won't be too happy with all the lame jokes and comments they will be getting.
