As you can see I was disappointed by yesterday’s announcement, let alone how the name was ridiculed on Twitter later on with the #iTampon jokes. Anyway, I was expecting all this because of all the media buzz. Have a great day! 
And here’s a song for you (that I heard on the radio yesterday and reminded me of the old days 
)
haha! i totally feel you, maya, i was as excited and as disappointed
Hilarious!
Love the roller pin allusion. I am REALLY REALLY REALLY enjoying your blogging. That’s saying something when I work with blogs 
I’m disappointed
What about iBooks? is’n it too cool!
Ya3ni I guess I agree that the name is silly, but the device is cool!
Not expected != Not cool
Ba3den 7aram Steve Jobs ;-(
Congratulation for your reaction, your not a cheep

Great post.. Nice way to flatten an iPod touch
But on the subject matter of this post I would say: not so hasty. I view this as a process of incremental innovation. I think Apple figured that laptops do their job really well.. so why change them and re-engineer MacOS X as a complex touch interface. That would be a “bolt on” solution. They went for a cleaner solution. Now, app developers can (and will) surprise us with what this device can do.
I think we’re all stuck with “why isn’t it like a laptop” mindset, and we still have not seen all the possibilities of the new device.
Lack of a camera is inexcusable though!
Just one point guys, this “thing” ain’t able to run to apps in the same time … you can surf on the web and have a chat app in the main time … common … even the cheapest cellphone can do two things in the same time
I was disappointed as well (Popcorn prepared as well)
Though you should admit its a nice product nevertheless!
I just loved your post !
100% agree with you.
Did you see the promo video .. So much of marketing for the product in the vid too .
Good products sell themselves . Bad Products need marketing
i can’t believe it!!! hahahaha… yesterday i was like this product is mam3ous using el shawbak. and lyoom i seeeee that you illustrated the same! hahhaha so cool so weird!!!
love ur work
p.s.: i was showing my friend in class one of ur illustrations and he was like ANH she’s my friend! and the guy was johnny abi allam
very smart as always
I wasn’t on twitter when all this happened & I was shocked today to learn iTampon actually trended!! I watched a few videos on YouTube and yes, unfortunately it does look like one big iPod, which I already own
will I buy the bigger version? mmmh… lol
(I won’t lie, hubby was thinking about it… but he hasn’t yet read anything & I have a feeling the geek within him will be quite disappointed
)
Even though I own most of their products, call me a sucker for also getting the iPad. Just package it in glitter red, and make it useful while facilitating my life, and I’ll give them my clothes.

did you know that :
“Steve Jobs est fils d’une mère américaine, Joanne Carole Schieble, et d’un père syrien, Abdulfattah John Jandali, professeur de sciences politiques, il est né à San Francisco en Californie. Il fut adopté peu après sa naissance par Paul Jobs et Clara Jobs vivant à Mountain View en Californie. Ses parents biologiques se marièrent un an plus tard et eurent un autre enfant, l’auteur Mona Simpson.”
Oh I have just noticed the new – what do you call it – bookmark for the website. You know, that asterisk. Most appropriate.

AMAZINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN…..
BUT THE FUNNY THING IN ALL THIS IS THAT I ACTUALLY LIEKD THE I PAD
OOOOOOOOPS
Everyone I know with some common sense had the same reaction. This is sillier than the Macbook Air.
Dear Apple, please page me when you make a version of this that lets me run multiple apps at the same time.

it’s just that yesterday my friend tagged me in a photo for the ipad, he is a mac freak, and i hate mac, weird, if u consider the timing
totally agree, lets make it general as u’ve said…
Maya do you seriously sit like that? crossing your legs? Coz i’m the only person I know who sits like that on a chair
I even sit this way at the office on an office chair, which takes some acrobatic moves to achieve
