And why don't those frothing at the mouth to defend Apple need to take a close look at themselves?

That's why I don't own an iPhone.

Certain apple fanboys seem to be almost fanatical about apple products.

The original name for the apple fetish was called a Donny Madill after it's creator.

"An apple fetish" and "pulling a Donny" are interchangeable names.

An apple fetish happens when a sexual act is performed with apple devices such as using an apple iPad as a masturbation aid.

Taken from the Urban Dictionary

Great, its like a **** mag that you can, at the push of a button turn into a newspaper, so perhaps Apple should forget the funky afro headed young black girls or DJ types all dancing around in silhouette on primary coloured backgrounds with an Ipod on, white headphones all visible.

Just show a fat, middle aged bloke in a hotel room having a grumble whilst clutching an Ipod Touch or Iphone, obviously still in silhouette and use some cool but retro music that is also ironically appropriate to the subject matter, hmm, "Im a ******" by Ivor Biggun ?

I had an idea for an Android Tablet App, I won't bother developing it as all Android tablets are flops and what users there are don't spend any money, bloody pirates.

Anyhow, it has a selection of 'Models' in poses that work rather well with the motion sensor, it doesn't take much imagination to get what I mean.

Anyhow, like I say, not worth developing for Android and Apple won't allow porno.

He'd look even sillier with a Laptop and I bet it's great having all the results with him. The F1 App is a stunner.

ive been beta testing 2 new products called Slates you may be aware of them one runs windows 7 and the other isnt out till windows 8
HP were doing one also but as HP have just canned all there Hardware this has been canned also, so that leaves the true windows slates to Dell and Fujitsu.

The fuji beta one we have looks ****e, but the dell as dell do looks good but its not out till next year

These 2 will give the IPAD a run, in a business world because the IPAD doesnt do security really well in a place like were i work 95000 people Policied to fack with encryption IPADS are a hole for them, but i still use it LOL.

The Kindle Fire is a cool device but for books it will do other stuff but i dont see it being much of a threat, but i suppose time will tell

well im not saying secure but they will be as secure as the other 95000 desktop/laptops out there.

When we all use IPADs the IT hate it as Policies dont run, the passwords are not great and they dont run encryption.

I ignore it to be honest but it was one thing that a client of ours 30000 seats brought up, as they want to move to Ipads for execs but these Risks had to be looked at and signed off

Yawn

Not domain Joined

when your reading confid emails and have a password that cannot be enforced and its the wifes name, not great eh

and have you ever taken a mates Ipad and tried to get the stuff off it, try i think youll find its quite an easy task with the right toolset.

I think my basic jist mate is, in a company enviroment they are not a good thing when your doing high touch email, for Bobs garage and a working class company maybe but for some of the ones i have the unfortunate time to bid for and support, its the execs that wants the toys but me and my team thats gotta tear down the devices and lay the risk out on the table.

I love my Ipad and id persoanlly never move to a slate cos windows just doesnt flow as well as IOS for touch etc, i have a new Multi Touch laptop from dell and its shat.

Get used to it, the penetration of the iPad in corporate environments is astonishing.

And have a read of this, not perfect but a bit more that Bob might need

yeah thats a good doc

Best thing is the Ipad registers in Exchange 2010 as a mobile device for Active Sync and you can remotely wipe em with a flick of a button, when the exec leaves it on the train.

But thats hopfully before his PA hasnt disabled the SIM card LOL
