Holy Claim Chowder Batman! Asymco calls everyone out who talked s*!t about the iPad.

The iPad wasn’t going to change the world, and Apple wasn’t going to be doing stockholders any favors by releasing the product that has now become ubiquitous in the industry.

It’s hilarious to see just how wrong a lot of these journalists were when they sat down to write about the iPad’s inevitable demise. It’s well worth your time. Take a minute, grab a coffee, and check out some doozies that include,

Like I said, prepare yourself for some giant laughs, and then go give it a read.
