Do you use iCloud. If so do you sync all or just some functions
I don't use it at the moment, but it's worth trying out to see if it's useful to you. For example if you have an iphone and take photos, photostream can save manually transfering photos (as long as you don't mind your photos going via Apple servers).

Since they've added wifi syncing with a desktop, I just use that to sync bookmarks and backup the iPad. My calendar and documents are sync'd via caldav/webdav so don't apply to iCloud.

Do you use a screen protector.
I did, but they scratch too easy. In the year I've used it without (but with a case for the iPad when not in use) i've yet to damage the screen and it picks up less (but still plenty) fingerprints.

If you'd like a few app recommendations to check out. Goodreader for PDF, Notebooks for general text notes/writing. Firetask is a pretty good task app too. Kindle app probably goes without saying iTunesU for lots of free education content. Sure others will chime in with their most used apps before long :P
