Last week, Apple unveiled the iPad, a $500 tablet that basically looks like an iPhone for giants. Definitely a cool device, but let’s face it — no woman would have approved that name.
Granted, it’s much better than, say, the iSanitary Napkin. But still, what was Apple thinking?
To save the company from further embarrassment, we’d like to recommend advertising slogans for the iPad that should be avoided.
1. So thin, yet holds so much.
2. Tons of applications at your fingertips.
3. Meets your needs from month to month.
4. Offers superior protection.
5. The best pad. Period.
6. Goes with the flow.
7. Ideal for heavier days.
8. Lightly scented.
Yes! Beyonce nabbed six Grammys on Sunday, including one for her hit “Single Ladies.” Speaking of single ladies, Elizabeth Edwards finally took a ring off it.
Wow: In other Grammy news, Taylor Swift’s Fearless won Album of the Year. In her acceptance speech, Swift thanked her family, her fans and Kanye West (for staying home).
Hmm... U.S. tennis hotshot Serena Williams netted her fifth Australian Open title Saturday. No line judges were harmed in the making of this win.
WTF? On Monday, KU basketball stud Cole Aldrich was named Big 12 Player of the Week. Now, if only he could do something about that tooth.
Ugh: A whopping 10 movies are up for Best Picture at the 2010 Academy Awards, which airs March 7. Great — now the Oscars are going to be longer than a back-to-back showing of “Inglourious Basterds” and “Avatar.”
