I like Market because it's so convenient. You're correct, I can find most of the apps in other places, but a lot of times I get referred back to downloading them from Market. I have a Droid Incredible phone, so I just download what I need from Market, back them up using Astro, and either email them to myself (individually) or transfer them through wireless phone-pc-PE.
There's two things I would love to have, and it would make having the PE a perfect experience: Flash Video capability (not happening) and 3G connection. It's a great little tablet, so close to being perfect.

I've never understood this almost obsession with getting android market to work. 90%, or more, of the useful apps are available from other places - you just have to look for them.
The EE and PE were designed as working tools for teachers and students in higher education - at least that was how they were marketed. A noble aim which lead to the demise of the company, maybe if they had taken the general availability route like woot there would still be a company running today.
