			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With the revelation of <a href="http://blog.laptopmag.com/first-hands-on-with-apple-ipad-slick-and-fun-but-no-netbook-killer">Apple&#8217;s tablet moniker</a>, I&#8217;m left to wonder why it is that beautiful tablets are getting such unfortunate names.</p>
<p>First we had the <a href="http://blog.laptopmag.com/bad-joojoo-the-tablet-formerly-known-as-crunchpad-needs-a-new-name">JooJoo</a>, which inspired a rash of ethnic jokes best left unsaid. Now comes the iPad, which has already been subjected to various <a href="http://jezebel.com/5458338/that-time-of-the-month-the-internets-best-period+related-ipad-jokes">feminine hygiene jokes</a> with more still to come.</p>
<p>Was iSlate not sexy enough? Did iTablet not occur to anyone? One thing is for sure, there probably <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/eve-tahmincioglu/apples-ipad-points-to-dea_b_439141.html">weren&#8217;t too many women involved</a> in the development of that tablet, as they would have pointed out the consequences long ago.</p>
<p>Which moniker do you think is worse, JooJoo or iPad? Vote in the poll below (you may have to click the permalink, depending on where you&#8217;re reading this). If you&#8217;re a comedian, you should probably choose which one is <em>best </em>for you.</p>
Note: There is a poll embedded within this post, please visit the site to participate in this post's poll.
<p>On a related note, kudos to MADtv for making what is likely the very first iPad joke over two years ago:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today Walt Mosspuppet (who is, by the way, my favorite puppet journalist of all time) posted the following about the <a href="http://mosspuppet.com/2010/01/19/you-dont-deserve-the-islate/">Apple tablet</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>According to a poll over at MacMost.com, what most people want out of the upcoming iSlate is to be able to read books. My god, you people think so small.</p></blockquote>
<p>I must say: the puppet is right. Seriously, people? You&#8217;re going to use the tablet mainly for reading? What do you do with your computers all day, play 8-bit Tetris? Dear Gozer.</p>
<p>Anyway, <a href="http://mosspuppet.com/2010/01/19/you-dont-deserve-the-islate/">go read Mosspuppet</a> because he&#8217;s far funner about all this than I am. I&#8217;m too appalled at how unimaginative the people who took that poll are to be witty today.</p>
