Agreed, as soon as Apple announces something all rational thought appears to go out of the window even amongst many respected commentators who should be making rational arguments. I love Apple products but the consumerism disgusts me. I find it difficult to even care about the iPad at all because I know in 6-months another version will be out with a bigger hard disk and some new gimmick I'm told I'm not supposed to do without simply to increase my data usage on the device so I'll later upgrade to the next model with the bigger hard drive (iPod Nano).
