What do I not like? The weight, the size, the battery life, the screen and the Apple Store.

One has to admit: Apple does a brillant marketing job(s).
Personally, I find their products mediocre at best. My iMac certainly has been the first and only PC from Apple. iPhone has been voted "worst phone" ever by NYT - and I agree. And actually, their iPhone sales aren't really that good. Siemens ICM did drop out of business with similar figures. But: iTunes is a great cash generator. And Apple cleverly understands, to hype up even the smallest of sales figures.
Without even having seen it: I'm absolutely sure, iPad will have NOTHING new or even spectacular. But for some reason they they have loyal followers - which HP or Sony for similar products don't have.
