New Apple iPad (March 2011)

Nope, no SXSW for me -- I did the Zilker Park thing for Austin City Limits last year... There's only so much Austin action I can take within a certain timespan! :)

I opted for the black 32GB model. I also went back the next day and got the black leather Smart Cover -- I initially thought to myself, "wow, what a grand waste of money," but you really need to use the cover to get the full experience. It is, quite simply, an engineering marvel in simplicity and function. It is quite apparent that Apple was telling the truth when they said they designed the cover right alongside the iPad 2 itself.

The iPad 2 is the most magnificent Apple product I've used since 1984. I haven't touched my brand-new MacBook Air nor my Mac mini since Saturday.

Maybe my brain's finally been microwaved and irradiated with Steve's Reality Distortion Field -- if so, call me an iSheep and put me out to pasture with the rest of the fanboys -- there's no place I'd rather be!
