While the iPad definitely has advantages over a laptop (it's lighter than my current laptop, for instance), the big advantage to me of a laptop is I already have one. It would be hard for me to justify (at this point in my life, anyway) buying another device when I have one that can serve the purpose.
I think many people would find the discussion at least insightful whether an iPad is going to be a useful purchase for them over a MacBook or other laptop.
