Can you help me out with some informative App?

Ah sure, no problem :).
There are quite some applications to get informations from and this market is expanding.
So overall I can recommend you:
guardian
White House
TUAW
Ifun news
financial times
CNN

That's it for now.
If you like to have apps. for a certain language, then let me know ;).
Oh yeah and one more app, that will keep you informed is instapaper paper.
It will safe your articles and lets you read them also offline, but costs 4 euros.

some notebooks are the same size as the ipad....

The iPad is Even more Portable.
But the Most Important Part for me is, that it's based on the App. system,
which has already proven its success couple of Times.
It's Not unreasonable, that so man companies try to get on the app. Train.

Ipad is a fucking joke.

I love people, that do not even read fundamentals to argue justified about it.
However it will find it's users and buyers.
Atm it's really tricky to say, if it's gonna be revolutionizing or just a common Apple product.
But as I already said, the market, that Apple is opening for a really huge public, can expand then even more.
So if the iPad is a "flop", then more then ever, eBooks will get attention, which seems to be a good thing to me.

iPad will most likely be flop. It looks like it might be cool, but if you think about it it's just a combination of a netbook and iTouch, which don't combine to bring any new advantages in. A regular netbook will give you an actual computer at much the same size and price. An iTouch will give you mostly the same features, but at a cheaper price and a more convenient size. Once most people realize this iPad is going down. And fuck, Sony's got something that's almost the same thing at half the price.

"find its users and buyers" i lol'd. Every Apple product finds its little niche in the market made up of rabid Apple fans like you who will buy pretty much anything the company makes and try to sell it to others/say it's not as shitty as it is.

And with the iPad coming out a lot of people are making jokes that Apple's finally realized that they can make any random shit, make it look semi-cool, then release it and their fanbase will all buy it and convince other similarly technologically illiterate friends to get it as well. Then they toss out some random jargon that they heard in the ads from Apple thinking the figures are good (i.e. 1 GHz processor on iPad, #### dpi on Magic Mouse, etc. sorry Apply but those are shit from years ago).

The underlined part is pretty, what I like to see, because it's easy for me to refuse that. I have an iTouch 2nd generation with 8GB.
And I cannot afford any other Apple product, might look forward to organize myself on buying an iPod Touch "4th gen", but that's future music.
Sure, there are lots of "Apple-fanboys", but somewhere it needs to have it's reasons, me for myself I'm pretty much impressed by their business concept, rather then by their technology invention.
Anyways I'd like to help people out and discuss with them about this "phenomenon" Apple, on which products you pay a huge amount for their lable.
Now the point of discussions concerns the miracle, if the iPad, that does not bring any new revolutionizing features with it's release, can handle the market and even not be a dead article and so a "non-high-profit-project" for Apple.
My bad information from wikipedia on the brand is, that they have cancelled any devices, that were not selling well enough.

So my opinion is, that the iPad might not be the seller, but it's opening and focussing on a market, that needs such a presentation, all other brands did not manage to do so yet.

tho mac is a marketing genius, i wouldnt shell out the bucks to buy one. they are cute tho.

Agreed. My friend is gonna buy one, so I will investigate it =P.
