Will Apple Ever Think About Middle Class & Low Class People?

28. cnwwyo posted on 18 Apr 2012, 13:07 7

?????? You are a good example of whats wrong with this country. It's a business, not a charity.

30. Mandroid posted on 18 Apr 2012, 13:22 7

Dude I'll hate on apple all day, but that's a dumb thing to say. I don't consider apples novelties to be "higfh class" or for "rich people". If you cant afford $200 for a smart phone you're doing it wrong. And by "it" I mean life.

38. cpmBurst posted on 18 Apr 2012, 16:50

lol same comment everytime get new material

2. AppleConspiracy posted on 18 Apr 2012, 09:43 3

iPad is worth much more than gold. That's why these tasteless interventions are bizzare and originate from stupidity.

4. Captain_Doug posted on 18 Apr 2012, 09:48 8

Nice non-regional diction. That would be sarcastic but you're picture tips me off that you're being sarcastic so I give you kudos instead.

14. AppleConspiracy posted on 18 Apr 2012, 10:37 2

None of the sentences I wrote are sarcastic. They are just sad.

3. danalmillan posted on 18 Apr 2012, 09:44 7

Is it me or does it actually look like it is covered in a brown paper bag????? LOL!!!! I would never spend that much money on a computer or phone!!!!!!

15. rendHELL posted on 18 Apr 2012, 10:48

thats a reflection dude.

34. quryous (banned) posted on 18 Apr 2012, 14:49 2

No, no. That IS actually a paper bag. Man, apple quality has really gone to pot lately so they are hiding their stuff in a paper bag. They can't even legally advertize as 4G in a bunch of countries anymore. A shame, really.

The show off brain surgeons that pay this ridiculous price tag most likely don't realize that there is no such thing as "Gold Plated". Something is either SOLID gold or it isn't. The so called gold plating is achieved by nothing more than an electrical process.

6. bbblader posted on 18 Apr 2012, 09:52 2

hey look I got a new iPad 3
even more its made of 24ct gold!
I bet you noone would want to steal that piece of garbage

17. PaulNotFromSweden posted on 18 Apr 2012, 11:00 1

Who is "noone"?

27. bbblader posted on 18 Apr 2012, 12:57 2

''no one'' typo sorry man

7. Giggity posted on 18 Apr 2012, 09:55 2

So I guess bank robbers are interested in robbing gold iPad users rather than banks now huh?

8. JSern posted on 18 Apr 2012, 10:01 2

Whatisthiss**tidonteven

9. kshell1 posted on 18 Apr 2012, 10:08

now i have a reason to steal one lol......just to melt it down for the gold!!!!!.......jk i still dont want one.

10. Orbitman posted on 18 Apr 2012, 10:10 4

why do things like this even exist? smh

12. kshell1 posted on 18 Apr 2012, 10:13 7

For rich idiots.....

11. jaytai0106 posted on 18 Apr 2012, 10:13

I wonder how heavy that thing is...

13. shadowcell posted on 18 Apr 2012, 10:14 2

If you really want to stand out, I'd recommend the real wood shells from Root Cases:

http://rootcases.com/catalog/category/view/id/4

or maybe have your iPad pimped out with custom paint job from Color Ware:

http://www.colorware.com/p-321-ipad.aspx

Both are presented with the idea of being a polar opposite of aesthetics much like a golden iPad. Then again, you're richer than most..why would you care what anyone thinks?

O M G
I would love desire that, but way to expensive

That's what you call UNIQUE!!!!!!!

37. InspectorGadget80 posted on 18 Apr 2012, 16:06 2

I called it Tacky ugly as FCK

20. Bigbluetundra posted on 18 Apr 2012, 11:27 3

I'm skeptical and might hold out for the platinum edition. Plus, I heard it gets hot enough to cook endangered animal eggs on it.

21. Republican posted on 18 Apr 2012, 11:48 1

Sorry,droid rabble. Its only for those of us that can afford it.

22. EclipseGSX posted on 18 Apr 2012, 11:55 3

Will that be in Imperial credits Lord Vader?

25. shadowcell posted on 18 Apr 2012, 12:26 3

This isn't the article you were looking for.

24. Republican posted on 18 Apr 2012, 12:15 1

Yes,my subject. Now go forth and destroy all androids.

40. kanagadeepan posted on 18 Apr 2012, 21:46 1

Wake up boy... It is already late to school... Go go...

26. HGMIV posted on 18 Apr 2012, 12:29 1

What's this iPad 3 that you speak of? Isn't it the New iPad?

35. quryous (banned) posted on 18 Apr 2012, 14:52 3

Or, simply call it the iFad. Most people do, you know.

36. InspectorGadget80 posted on 18 Apr 2012, 16:06 2

This is FAR worst than the last picture they show on here with the DIAMOND APPLE LOGO. Only iditot millionaires would purchase those.

39. kanagadeepan posted on 18 Apr 2012, 21:12 1

Hmmm 4349$ for the 24carat Golden back-cover and 1151$ for new iPad... Still 1151$ for iPad is looking costly than 24 carat gold of cost 4349$...
