SURE, IT'S A SPEAKER SYSTEM FOR YOUR HOUSE PARTY.
You're not foolin' us. You're just showin' off your stupid iPad.
Hey Matt, nice party. These little cocktail weenies in barbecue sauce are pretty good. Yeah, music's not bad either. Hm? Notice what?
Oh. You got some Philips Fidelio Docking Speakers for iPad, iPhone, and iPod. Neat.
No, they're nice. Totally. The sound is great, and the built-in rechargeable battery probably won't be a problem, I guess. You can even do wireless Bluetooth streaming? That's cool, I guess. Oh wow, it's got its own app to add functions to your iPad for it? That's nifty.
Well yeah, Matt, I am acting pretty nonchalant about it. That's because I feel like this whole get-together was orchestrated for the sole purpose of forcing us to admire your new iPad.
Well for starters, you've placed it on the mantle in the middle of your living room. No, I agree; that's a good place for the maximum music coverage. But I disagree that it needs its own Shinto shrine thingy built around it. I also disagree with the need for every guest arriving to be introduced to the iPad and speakers first.
Look man, you like nice gadgets and that's fine. Just accept that not all of us care so much and aren't as easily impressed by shiny things. Otherwise I'll have to bring a real computer over here and hook it up to a surround sound system. And you don't want that.
