Quote - Well, the one thing iPad has clarified is that Apple apparently has few women working in its corporate headquarters in charge or product naming.  The jokes practically write themselves.

Here is a sampling of comments from Twitter:

 

**LizB:
**iPad. was there a woman on this naming team? will there be different sizes? Mini iPad, maxi iPad?

elahater:
Apple obviously needs some women on staff. Just so the words, "um are you sure about that, Steve?" could have been uttered.

Gelatobaby:
And you can use the giant QWERTY keyboard to get your period on the #iPad !

herbadmother:
Seriously, 'iPad?' There are too many of us for whom the phrase 'my pad just failed' evokes horror that should never be linked to technology

TimDillon:
iPad sounds like a guy with a Boston accent trying to say iPod.

TwittsMcGee:
I haven't heard this many period jokes since I was forced to watch The View last month.

kathycacace:
Okay, just one more. The iPad: protecting your data from embarrassing incidents.

lady_justice:
Did the prototype come with a belt?

Lymed:
Does the Period Tracker app come free?

fauxfruit:
If I order this, will my boyfriend and I have to worry if it comes late?

andBegorrah:
If you and your friends all buy one, will they sync up?

vlvtjones:
So will iffy Wifi coverage be called iSpotting?

babyruthless:
Mac made an iPad. It's Mac's iPad. Say it with me. Mac's iPad. Seriously? No one said the name out loud?

morninggloria:
Can I get a scented iPad for when my data feels not-so-fresh?

Mary McCarthyite:
Everyone, just try to Stay(free) calm and Poise(d). It's Always nice to see a new product on the market. I Depend on Apple to come up with great ideas. Maybe we're taking this out of Kotex.

"It is good to see ourselves as others see us. Try as we may, we are never
able to know ourselves fully as we are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to say." - Ghandi
