\"\"<\/a>Apple finally took the wraps off of its hotly anticipated tablet — dubbed the iPad — today, at a live event held in San Francisco. In addition to Om live-blogging the event for TheAppleBlog<\/a>, our network of sites are hard at work reviewing this potentially game-changing device from every imaginable angle. We’ll update you with coverage as it comes in — from both across our network as well as the web — and in the meantime, have also gathered some of our posts written in the past week or so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
What the web is saying:<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
AppleInsider<\/a>: The hardware has many of the same capabilities of the iPhone and iPod touch, including an orientation sensor for switching between portrait and landscape modes, and multi-touch capabilities. The device even looks akin to a large iPhone.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Gizmodo<\/a>: Don’t worry, friends! The hundreds of dollars you’ve spent on fart apps will not have gone to waste with the Tablet: it can fart, too. Just smaller, and in the middle of the screen.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

CrunchGear:<\/a> All the naysayers can feel free to eat their hats. Today Apple finally revealed the device we\u2019ve all been whispering about for a good year or more.<\/td>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

From today:<\/p>\n
