(28,552 posts)... that Apple has a technological lead (for the time being anyway) in these devices, and that they have their uses, I am pretty sure that for 90% of the people who buy them they are just expensive toys.
For me to spend that kind of dough on something, it has to justify it by saving me time and/or effort. Unless you are a field salesman or a realtor or something like that I find it hard to believe that you really need one of these.
Of course, everyone is free to do with their money whatever they want, but I'm also pretty sure that you are paying a really high premium for the name "Apple" and I especially avoid that. That is just playing into the consumerist corporations hands when they convince you that they deserve a staggering margin because their product is so fantastic.
Uh, not really.
