>>My parents aren't Apple fans. They're not nerds. They spend a lot of time frustrated with technology. They're nuts about their iPad because it works really well. That's it. Adding a USB port isn't going to make them like it better. It's going to make it more complex, which is going to degrade their experience in using it.

This is interesting. I'm curious, how do they manage the music/photos/videos in their ipad? Doesn't syncing by cord with the computer a messy thing? Or do you do it for them? How do they use it?




If Apple had added a USB port, the same folks would be singing praises on it. Same thing happened with the G5 to Intel switch. The exact same people who were railing on Intel and praising the G5 for speed/features etc. did a complete aboutface.
