Sad this. For a piece of iCrap like the iPad2. I would have waited for a more serious tablet. It goes to show that there are lots of iTOODUMB people out there. I am sure the iCon
Mr Jobs is laughing his head off.

So... You would not sell a kidney to buy an iPad, but you would do it for a more serious tablet! Good to know you're not a iTOODUMB...

OK it sounds stupid, but you wait until the iDialyse is released - who'll be looking stupid then?

If I dispute one single point in a post, that should not be taken as an indication that I agree/disagree with any other point made by that poster or anyone else in the thread. Or anywhere else. Ever.

You are absolutely right. The comment was intended to show how technologically preliterate and dumb iCrap fanboys are.

I think the moral of this article is to never trade body parts for pieces of tech.

Why I am glad to live in America. Corruption in other countries are so rampant that companies trusted to make our gear will sell the intel to the highest bidder. Apple surprises lately haven't been surprises thanks to leaks.

First: what a idiot
Second: ipad 2 is not worth a kidney
Third: what a idiot
Forth: should have told someone what he was going to do so they have a chance to beat some sense into him

"The hospital also claimed they had no knowledge of the surgery, though they did admit to contracting out the urology department to a Fijian businessman. "

Yeah, the kid was stupid, BUT China has a much bigger problem! Imagine your local hospital "contracting" certain operations to "a businessman" and apparently not knowing how to contact him...

The guy exchange his important body part. In the process he had it removed by a crappy doctor who wasn't even certified for such a surgery for a crappy tablet. Now he is going to have crappy health issues the rest of his life. Just bec a dr can perform maybe open heart surgey, doesn't mean he can do surgery on anything else. Being a MD by trade doesn't make you a God.

Forget about it not being worth a kidney...its not even worth $499...but if someone gave me one for free that would be cool. We did get a free original ipad last XMAS from one of my partners for the company. Nice to get it free. This kid sadly is going to likely die from sugical complications.

As Mr T would say...I pity the fool....!!!
Classic iFantasim taken way to far. I class this right up there with idiots who jump out of planes for no reason, bungie jump, skuba dive with man-eating sharks and drive cars around a track at 200MPH.

I guess you never lived in China. You can buy anything you want.
