As much as I like my iPad, is it worth $500 just to be an eReader? Against the newly repriced Kindle and the Wifi Nook? If you were only going to read books on it? No. Save yourself a bundle and buy a Nook or Kindle and spend the saved money on books themselves.
Now if you allowed yourself to venture off the iBooks icon and into the other apps, even just going with the installed apps, on the 16G wi-fi model, compared to the Nook and Kindle, then yes. I'd say get one.
