I see this similarly.

My boss is an iPad-fan and he borrowed it to all of us for a few days to try it out. I found it fun, but I didn't find anything where I said "yeah, I need to have this". For most things it was either "too much" (like reading, taking notes - for this it's just too expensive) or "not enough" (when it came to full computing you expect from a notebook; a similarly priced notebook could do so much more). This is why I'm more interested in a specialized product like an ereader.
