We asked our friends on Facebook and Twitter what they would do to get their hands on a shiny new iPad. Surprisingly, most folks seemed to have made up their minds before the new tech toy was even presented. Here's what they said.
"Promise to write 3 columns free of charge for the RedEye." --Colin Joliat
"Not much. I have an iPhone,and a powerbook. What would i need it for?" --Jason Squires
"Dawn a dolly parton wig,Wear heels and lipstick and sing 'working 9 to 5' by dolly parton. Wait, has that already been done?" --Nino Dorenzo
"Nothing, because my Lenovo DJ laptop, Android phone, and PSVita does everything they are supposed to already without tying into the Apple regime. Oh and I can give files to my friends when they want them. How about that?" --Joel Tomas
"Nothing.. I have ZERO need for it. I already have a droid and kindle fire." --Marlene Julye
"The same thing i've done since the first ipad came out: nothing." --Vanessa Luis
"I would let everyone else make fools of themselves while enslaving themselves to technological gadgets." --Bobby Hillman
"Not.A.Single.Thing. Didn't need one 20 years ago, don't need one today." --Scott Church
"I'd make my friend down a Gino's deep dish spicy sausage pizzas in less than 15 minutes:)" --Debbie Frank
"For free? i'm sure i would jump thru a hoop or two... now if you want me to pay for it, well sir, you've got the wrong chick... homie don't play dat :)" --Amanda Whittington
"Oh, I don't know. Do the same thing I do when a new gadget comes out. Wait or camp in line for hours just to get the darn 'it was so worth the wait' device. Maybe if I'm lucky, I get to body surf my way to the front of the line. That'll be the day." --Keith Joaquin Oquendo
"I would shave the apple logo in my back hair and sun burn the image by walking up and down MI Ave all afternoon." --@pmichelich
"I'd give up my klondike bar." --@ryanluering
"I'd say cut off my hands, but then I wouldn't be able to get my hands on one would I?" --@gutenmorganCHI
"I will stick with the first generation...and wait for the one that can make you breakfast in bed." --@One4theDagger
"I would patiently sit in a line outside of an Apple store!" --@davethulu
"I'm going to guess the new iPad has a better display & same camera as the iPhone 4s. I would love one but happy w/ my iPad 2." --@jazcan
"I would eat a Klondike Bar" --@mugwumpian
