Afternoon,

Just a quick question to those who use iPads:

Do you use it in portrait or landscape mode mostly?

landscape generally!
Portrait mostly, definitely on AB.
if I can ever get hold of it I use it mainly in landscape mode
Landscape mostly. Writing is too small in portrait.
Landscape
Landscape (unless I am playing solitaire!)
landscape for net surfing and emailing, portrait for reading books and some apps and games
Are these the same iPads

... sold by an American company worth more than Microsoft, Intel and Cisco all combined

... and made in China by a workforce paid $7.20 for an eight hour shift?

(source: today's Guardian)

If you use them in landscape, it's easier to see the bodies of the children who became malnourished because their parents got a job making iPads.

Great pieces of kit, though. Very sexy.

I love living in the West. It feels so ... affluent.

I've got nothing against iPads. It's just a thought.

The more we buy, the more they die.

OMG ... I'm sounding like an American human rights protester.

I think I need to buy an iPad.

(adds "iPad" to shopping list)
Oh dear, JJ, you put me off --- but Ed, if you want me to do market research and you'll give me the iPad to do it, i really really want one!
No no ... sorry, Boxy ... I've put my placard away now.

Having luxurious items made by starving slaves is one of the benefits of living in the West, so we should enjoy it.
Actually, we should be grateful to Apple for showing us that "Fair Trade" is a ludicrous concept, and that "I Got Loadsa Money!!!" is much preferable.
My lovely family gave me one last weekend for my birthday!
How much they paying them ?
If they cut the pay , maybe I could buy one for a couple of quid cheaper.

They use children , because they are small and need small fingers to put them together.

You can't knock the Chinese , they are minted.
They own half of Africa and have created employment in the open cast mines for the local people and made the African dictators rich. This is due course has helped the market for private jets.
oh ...Yes had my iPad for 2 years now and use it in Landscape mode.

Why Ed ? Are you about to develop an app for Answerbank for the iphone and ipad ?
Well argued, SIRandy.

I feel compelled to agree.

And if the children were not working for Apple, they'd be harrassing old ladies.

And who knows ... the future CEO of Apple could be working in the assembly sweat shop, even as we speak (coz they probably have to work all night in China).
Well at least you can enjoy cruising about in your 4x4 JJ, knowing that Toyota would never use sub contracted plants that employ 'guest' workers mostly shipped in from China and Vietnam to build their vehicles 16 hours a day, seven days a week on well below the legal minimum wage...
JJ, the factory you refer to is FoxConn, who also work for Microsoft, Acer, Dell, Amazon, Cisco, Intel, Nintendo, Nokia, Samsung, Sony, Toshiba and many, many more.
Landscape with split keyboard :)

So the chinese bit into my apple ?
Landscape
I've just gorra say this I luv you JJ ♥♥

W Ron.
