That's OK I am sure Tom does not want to see the Cnet report about a
poll Retrevo did about the expected demand for the Ipad.
You mean the one where the number of people who said "yes" to buying
one tripled after the rollout, but the headline misdirected readers to
focus on "I'm not interested"?
With 9 per cent of respondents saying they are going to buy one and 21
per cent seriously considering it, this is going to be a huge success
for Apple.

"iPad hoopla" has passed, according to a survey by electronics
shopping site Retrevo, and consumers have lost interest after the
product's unveiling less than two weeks ago. More than twice as many
respondents said they were uninterested after the iPad was announced
compared to a week prior. Of course, there are lies, damned lies, and
statistics—three times as many said they were confident they would buy
one after finding out the product's details.
