My friend's take on keeping up with the IT Joneses

Wow, technology has really been pushed hard.

Now this Toshiba AT200 (7.7mm) is the thinnest tablet TO DATE, even thinner or slimmer than the Samsung Tablet 10.1 (8.6mm) or even the iPad2 tablet (8.8mm).

As usual, be prepared to throw or discard these tablets away after 3+ years of use 'cuz all slim or thin tablets come with embedded batteries. Unless you belong to that rich self-indulging category of iPad users who can afford it, you better be prepared to send them in and spend an extra RM450/= and about 2 weeks of cold-turkey withdrawal, to just replace the eventually permanently depleted embedded battery.

But by then ( 3+ years' time), more and more powerful devices will be out, so you always end up "keeping up with Joneses". So those rich iPad ladies who discard objects (and men!!!) at the flimsiest excuses, are indeed very wise to buy slim and beautiful devices. They can afford them.

As for the Android men, think carefully since most of you are broke...
