DIS Dads The DIS Dad's Club VII - Oh Peanut Butter...

[KTME]

I am 26, the wife is 28, and my amazing son is 3 (Yes, he gets his awesomeness from me). My wife is a teacher, and I am an Infantryman in the Army. I am currently in Afghanistan, and trying to plan a trip to WDW in October, when I get home. It is very difficult to plan a trip to WDW, let alone trying to do so in a third world country.

Welcome!! It is great to have another soldier on here. This place is getting overrun by sailors. (sorry Don couldn't resist) Thanks for your service and stay safe!!

Is there a set number of posts per page before it rolls over to the next one?

 

[KTME]

Just curious.

We should really try to get this to 100 before the end of the day.

Thanks everyone!

Oh...and speaking of good news Friday...

Just thought I'd stop by and rub it in that I'm currently typing this on my iPad 2.

Very cool. Is it that different from the iPad (1)?

I was lurking for a little while in hopes of getting it then my internet went down. It came back just in time.

The major difference is the iPad 2 has two cameras...front and rear facing. It will take HD video and still shots. It's also thinner than the previous version and lighter.

I got the 32gb wi-fi only version. Went in wanting the 16gb version and they only had the 32gb left. One of like 15 that our little town received.

I thought about selling it on eBay but decided to keep it for myself....well maybe I'll let the wife and kids play with it too.

I keep tossing the idea around of getting one...you will have to keep me updated on how satisfied youa re with it....and if it was worth the money to get the newer version

Steve, as I understand it this is the model for Apple:
1) Release revolutionary new product.
2) Sell 15 million new products.
3) Wait 1 year.
4) Add $15 worth of upgrades and drop version 1's price.
5) Sell 15 million new products.
6) Repeat

So if you can live without the cameras, I would expect within 6 months to a year, an iPad 1 will sell for $100 or less. Something to consider....

I watched it last night. His escape from the bolder made me ill. I had even heard the whole story before I watched it too! Great movie though.
