iPad Disassembled, Reassembled in Animation

By Apple 

Welcome to new meets old in the world of technology and animation.

When the iPad launched early this month, repair firms were quick to get their teardown reports published. We featured one of the first ones in our story here. But to see a more animated, literally, teardown, we present to you TechRestore's stop-motion animation teardown, complete with zany sound effects.

    Love it, taking things apart and putting them back together always gives me self satisfaction... Scary when it doesn't work once put back together though haha!

    Great animation, though it needed a pull out of the end where the camera zooms up into outer space, past the planets, out of the solar system, shooting past galaxies, and finally it is revealed to be a gleam in Jobs' eye!

    Also, is it me, or did it seem like there was a lot of extra space in the iPad's shell?

    six of the last eleven articles have focused on Apple. Even if the news includes negative things about apple, this is kind of ridiculous. Can we get a LITTLE less focus on apple?
