A deal I couldn't pass up...

D'haaaai!

Well, I'll start by saying in June I planed on going to NYC with my dad.
My dad was only taking me since I wanted to go. But he really didn't want to go.

I also wasn't looking forward to sharing a room with him. he snores like.... Like.... Uh... I cannot explain, but it's pretty bad.

SO! Here's the one-time take-it-or-leave it deal he made me.

"Go onto Apple's site, pick any iPad 2 Wi-Fi only model + Polyurethane Smart Cover you want. But the catch is, no NYC in a few months."
So, the Apple fanboy in me was super pumped. I didn't sleep much last night.
Today my father and I scoured the city for iPad 2s. With no luck.
So my father gave me his credit card and said "I think it would be best just to buy it online and forget about it 'till it comes."

So, I did so. 1 - 2 Week wait to leave from Foxconn. ;__; The Smart Cover will be here ~May 2nd.

So, these few weeks will be VEEEEERY slowly for me. Not looking forward to the wait.
But I'm excited to not be sharing an iPad with my dad anymore. :|

I know this thread will have mostly haterz, but oh well.

So, I picked the Black, 32GB iPad 2, Sky Blue Polyurethane Smart Cover.
I also got it engraved.
[m]The Pi[/m] gave me the idea.

"Think Different."
"Just like everybody else."

:mellow:

Yay no more resale value~

Okay, that's enough gloating.

Lucky you.

I get the feeling that this post sounds sarcastic, it's not.

:( I have always hated Apple devices. Their business practices sicken me...

Let's not get into that though, congrats on your new iPad 2. ^_^ You better be getting MineCraft on it when it is released. ;)

Also, try the Cydia App Osu!

It's great.

Minecraft..... On an iPad? That sounds horrible. My PC can barley run that game, let alone an iPad! (Yes, I know it'll be optimized). I cannot imagine the controls.

Why buy it on iPad when I have it on my PC? :3

Rocky: Trip lasts a weekend. iPad will last a while (Or 2 months before I upgrade :3 (joking :x))
Plus, I'm sick of sharing the iPad with my dad.

A brick to the face would be better then an iPad2, and the surgery to reconstruct your face wouldn't even cost as much.
