VIDEO: Jobs Introduces iPad to Rebel Alliance

- By - Source : Tom's Guide US

What would the Rebel Alliance say about the new Apple iPad?

A clever video editor has combined the iPad keynote heard back in January with the Rebel Alliance's Death Star briefing from Star Wars (Episode IV: A New Hope). With a few extra sound clips and dialogue thrown in, the resulting video is a hilarious spin on the device's big reveal. The little details make the iPad mockery so much more golden--the roll of Han Solo's eyes, someone sneezing "BS," and the quick little dialogue between Luke and Wedge.

"Nah, it's BS," Wedge said after listening to Jobs' "magical" iPad promises. "I'm not falling for it this time."

"Nah it's not," Luke replied in a simplified voice. "Because you can browse the web and that's really good..."

Check out the video for yourself, pasted below:

Hmmm what next iForce or iSaber how about iStar. Jokes aside this pad over all is a failure thanks to their closed mentality like the Great Wall of China but in the end serving only to the aid of others. They could have allowed Flash, better storage options, and more ram. Their controlled content approach hurts the over all use, makes the conglomerates happy but ruins it for the user.

This would have been epic if they had Ackbar at the end yelling "It's a trap!"

That is all the iPad is. Nothing more nothing less. It is crap that has been around for years and is now being sold to the technologically clueless masses as their technological salvation.

Way to use geek culture in order to get some attention.

Star Wars = Good and Star Wars = iPad so iPad MUST = Good!

Wow, that was part of steve jobs presentation? He didn't explain anything the ipad could do that the phone or a laptop couldn't already do. Seems more like a plug for the istore more than anything.
