wordful wednesday: a boy and his new toy

mr scrappy has been following the launch of the ipad closely.

they've only been out in australia for a month or two, and they won't even BE AVAILABLE here in new zealand until sometime this month.

he was kinda hoping that he might get one during our week in australia, but as seems to be the case EVERYWHERE, they're selling faster than they can be made!

so it was a very happy happenstance, when on our first day in australia we drove to the local mall, and whilst he was looking longingly at the display models, the sales dude mentioned that a woman had ordered one such elusive ipad and failed to show up to collect it!

"do you want it?" the dude asked.


stupid question.


it's so preeeeeeeeetty.......



now about this iphone/ipad scrabble...


i don't know what sort of voodoo magic makes those tile letters flick from the iphone to the scrabble board, but HOLY SHIT IT'S FUN!!!

never won a game, but then again i'm a purist.
i go for board coverage and long words that total 7 points

it's true - nice guys DO finish last.

Do your ipods sync with the ipad so that you can all play together? I want an ipad really badly. :)
