and do you really want a pocket full of cards?

Maybe it's just 1 card permanently inserted into the iPad. Or maybe I
carry around 4 rolling suitcases with 4,567 cards.

IT'S MY CHOICE.

it's your choice to buy a product that fits your needs. if you want the
ability to use cards, get a device that has a card slot. it's really
very simple.

buying a product that doesn't have a feature you want and then whining
about it is to be blunt, stupid.

HUH?

The iPad should have a memory card slot built in. That is what I am
saying. Live with it.

nothing wrong with stating opinions, and i'll do the same.

however, buying a product that doesn't have the features you want is
stupid.

And Android devices should let you use more than the anemic built in
memory to store apps.....

Not necessarily- sometimes we can't get everything on our laundry list of
features, and have prioritize. That's why the iPhone is so successful-
it does so many things well, that most users overlook its shortcomings.

The iPad will be the same way, most likely. It was industrial-strength
stupidity not to include an SD slot, but it won't be a deal-breaker,
particularly with a kludgey external reader available.

or they don't matter as much as some people think they do. no device is
going to please *everyone* all the time.

it was not stupidity at all. i doubt that most users will care. some
might, but again, it's a priority thing.
