I also enjoy being able to easily get books with the iBooks, Kindle, Kobo, and Bluefire (for Sony Books) apps.

On the other hand, reader prices are getting so low. If they go below $100, I'll get one just to carry around with me. I'm always worried about my iPad getting stolen or broken.
I think that's becoming the ideal choice for home use and if iPad 2 gets a retina display it's a no brainer if you can afford it. I still think the iPad price point is way too high, but people are buying them like crazy.
