Yes, it blends! And that's about all it's good for.

I think if I had several hundred dollars to spend for no good reason, it would never occur to me to buy an Ipad and destroy it. I can just imagine the meeting at Apple.

"So, should we fix the iPad? How are sales?"
Sales are through the roof, they're buying and destroying them in record numbers.
"Meeting over, drinks are on me".

Lol, I assumed that the brand was a parody. Is it actually a real brand? :p

I believe it is real. They put on these videos to prove their blender can blend anything. I gotta say, I want one!

Edit:

It's real - http://www.blendtec.com/ - real expensive too!

Nice. It looks like they make some pretty cool commercial products, too. Quite a price tag on their models, though.

Maybe they should manufacture blenders on this scale: http://www.ssiworld.com/watch/bmw.htm

Nonsense, a perfectly good use for an iPad product. About the only one there is

Blendtec should create a sales app for iPad so you can keep the dream alive.
