Yankee Stadium Bans iPads
According to Apple’s latest commercial, “iPad goes anywhere” — anywhere, that is, except for Yankee Stadium. Yahoo Sports confirmed with the stadium that the iPad falls under its “no laptops” security policy and patrons won’t be able to enter the ball field with one in their possession.
Say what? The TSA says that you don’t have to take an iPad out of its case to go through security, but Yankee Stadium says the device is a no-go? The discussion surrounding the ban was spurred by a message from Spacekatgal on the IGN Boards. Spacekatgal tried to bring her iPad in to the Yankee/Red Sox game, only to be turned away at the gate. Undeterred, she did re-enter the stadium with her iPad in her jacket, but the ban exists all the same.
While you can reasonably conceive why someone would want to bring an iPad — or any electronic device aside from a cellphone into a ball game for that matter — the outright ban of such a device strikes us as odd, especially given that Wi-Fi is available throughout the complex.
In any event, if you want to bring an iPad to Yankee Stadium this summer (assuming you’re sitting in the shade), you might want to make sure you’ve got a bag or windbreaker that can mask said device from the security guards. Or you could just leave the gadgets at home and watch the game.

I would imagine this ban may be lifted, seems kind of silly.

I LOVE my iPhone, so i know i will ADORE my iPad, it will be soooooooo shiny, and Applecare will help me when I have to get the fingerprints of the shiny bits...oohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, can't wait!!!!
The freetards with their OLD technology notebooks will be so jealous, but to act "tough" will pretend they wont!!!!
Can you imagine all the closet freetard iPad users??? Playing with their iPads in their parents basements with all the drapes drawn??? Hahahahahahahahaha too funny!!

One difference you'll notice right away is that the iPad is MUCH faster than the iPhone, all transitions are instantaneous.......

Well then the iPhone must crawl because all the iPads at the Apple Store I tested had a definite l-a-g, nothing was instantaneous....
My over two yr old laptop was snappier.
Ipads got handed out to us at work today... fooling around with it right now. much faster than my iphone, easier to read and use- i'm impressed... though, I haven't been through the whole thing yet.
good thing too. will be back in Canada this week.

Yeah, the first thing I noticed was how fast it was.... I'm hoping the next gen iPhone that will be announced in a couple of weeks will match that performance.

I'll give you a hint, the button at the bottom was not a mouse pad.... may have been a DFU issue.Well then the iPhone must crawl because all the iPads at the Apple Store I tested had a definite l-a-g, nothing was instantaneous....
