Send It Over, Steve

Dear Mr. Jobs,
I know you’re likely getting a lot of fan mail today, what with the release of your new iPad and all. You likely have all kinds of folks falling over themselves to tell you how much they love the new gadget you Apple guys shared with the world today… its sleek curves, its many features, its reasonable (well, for some…) pricing…
Well you can put my letter on the top of the pile. You probably don’t have many Catholic mom bloggers who would proclaim themselves geeky enough to actually throw their hat into the ring as reviewers. So I’m offering my services. Send over that new gadget of yours, and I’ll put it through its paces. I’ll hand it to my teens and their friends and let them watch YouTube videos via 3G. I’ll go to unknown places and test out its map features. I’ll use it to respond to the tons of emails that are currently clogging my inbox. And I’ll do it all with a smile on my face…
I’ll admit it - I was hoping not to like your new iPad. I didn’t know what you’d call it until you unveiled it today. I’d been listening to all of the speculation and reminding myself that I needn’t fall prey to coveting whatever gadget you introduced. I have my iPhone - shouldn’t that be good enough…
But Steve, you did it again. You have me coveting my neighbor’s iPad and trying to figure out how I can save up my pennies to splurge on a 64GB 3G version. So you could help me out by simply sending one over for review - I promise to tell the moms and dads here at Faith & Family how cool it is!!
I’m sure your staff will be getting in touch with me any day to request my mailing address, so until then I’ll be clipping coupons and giving up Starbucks to save for apps and a cool carrying case!
Congrats on your cool new iPad!
Your favorite Catholic Mom fan
