Nice picture!

All things to all religions it seems... and of none hopefully.

No one makes any mention of the Shiva tablet.

'The Lord Steve hath given me these 15" (drops and breaks tablet), 10" iTablets!!"

Can't wait. I know it is going to be revolutionary. So it is just going the iPhone without the phone. Sweet.

The iSlate has had much hype, that's for sure. What kinda irks me a little is that many say that the hype is all Apple's doing, when they haven't said a single word about anything.

I was going to get my wife a MacBook for Christmas but with the iSlate so close to becoming a reality, she's going to wait until she sees what is revealed on the 26th. If she likes it then she'll be getting that instead.

"And it’s worth pointing out that many publishers are building content in the belief that when it comes to the tablet, it’s not if, it’s when22"

I was hoping for proof-readers in the New Year.

@ Sarasota

LOL! No one expects the Inquisition!

Clouded leopard?

Calling it the "Jesus tablet" is sacrilegious. I wonder why all of these brave anti-Christian bigots don't call it the "Allah tablet", or the "Muhammad tablet". Must be they don't want to be at the receiving end of a fatwa on their lives. But you can do whatever you want to Christians, since you can get by with it. Although, I'm always hearing from liberals that Christians are just as bad as Muslims, yet in practice, they seem genuinely scared of the latter, and not at all of the former.

Interesting...

Well look what the Christians did for America for the last eight years.
Now that there is a Muslim running things...

If you believe any of that ^^^^ crap, you are an idiot!

Josh -

You're wrong. Believe me - liberals are just as afraid of fundamentalist Christians as they are fundamentalist muslims!

@Josh
I didn't see any mention of liberal or conservative alignments with respect to those who have dubbed the iSlate the 'Jesus tablet.' You seem to have a persecution complex which is driving you to twist reality to suit your limited and rigid view of things.

For the record, I am concerned about religious zealots of any persuasion. They seem to be able to justify any action, no matter how heinous, as sanctioned from above.

@ Josh

No worries Josh, I think people of all faiths are equally out of their gourds. I'll call it the "Allah Is A Cheap Hooker" tablet just for you.

And way to keep up that religious persecution complex!!! Unelectable atheists everywhere are weeping for you even now.

@ Josh

From your posts, I sense that you're a persecuted christian and not a Christian. And yes, being a progressive, I'm genuinely fearful of people like you, or at least like people you portray yourself as…

But we're still in a holiday season of tolerance, so 'Happy New Year' to you and may you discover some charity within as the year grows.

@ C1

Surely you don't count the adherents of the Mighty Flying Spaghetti Monster as out of their gourds? The sainted Spaghetti Squash is a being filled with beatific benign benevolence.

@ Josh

Totally agree with you.

@ Hm...

They're certainly more sane than the Mormons, and they own a whole state. All things being equal, I'd support the FSM candidate.

And stop calling me Shirley.

"Jesus Tablet" isn't a calling the device a deity. It's the abbreviated form of a M$ prayer "Jesus, please let us think of something as good as the Tablet!" No blasphemy there, just a short cut.

It's kind of interesting that liberals are always preaching tolerance, but exercising intolerance.

@ Norrin Rad,

You are a liar. Liberals in the entertainment industry routinely denigrate Christians, but wouldn't dream of doing that to muslims. And it's all because they know Christians are peaceful, while muslims are homicidal maniacs.

@ChrissyOne,

Thank you ever so much for telling me what you think. Now I'll finally be able to sleep at night.

By the way, Stalin, Mao Tse Tung, and Hitler were all atheist....just like you, sugar pants. You're in good company, eh?

And by the way, when you're burning in hell, the only scorn you'll have left is for your own foolish life. I guarantee it, honey.

@ Josh

I never preached any tolerance.
