That urge to whip the thing with its ginormous 10 inch screen up to your ear is going to play havoc with your eye. In the small group of folks I ran into who were returning their demo versions, most of us had nasty shiners.<\/p>\n<p style=\"list-style-type: none; list-style-position: initial; list-style-image: initial; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 14px; margin-left: 0px; padding: 0px; border: initial none initial;\">Apple assures us that final production versions will come with training corners &#8212; foam wedgies that will soften the blow until the user gets used to answering the giant device.
