Let’s see…it’s like a iPhone, but it doesn’t have a phone…or a camera…or GPS…and some sites won’t render (Flash), but it costs 2.5 – 4 times as much as a iPhone. And Apple still hasn’t put multitasking into its devices. I know…right? Still no multitasking.
If you’re on the market for an ebook reader then the iPad is a strong candidate. I guess having an ebook would be cool, but I’d end up breaking that beautiful screen 5 minutes after getting it out of the box. (It looks super-fragile.) If I didn’t break it, I’d leave it behind on a train or plane. You do that with a book and you’re out $15. Do it with an iPad and your out $500-$800.
Nonetheless, I will admit to a slight bit of screen envy. But iWon’t. Will you?

Exactly. I should be excited because….? Also it is still only with AT&T. Did they learn anything from the 80’s?
John, I like the devise but there is no way I will fork out $499 for it. I don’t understand why they did not make the OS OSX, which would allow for multi-tasking plus tons of applications. The processor is probably larger then my 1 ghz G4.
