The iPad is the same size as the PRS 900 and both have a virtual keyboard.

However, the Sony PRS 900 uses an eInk screen while the iPad uses an iPod screen.

In addition there is a charge by Apple for 3G connection and its free for Sony.

Since I already have Sony PRS 900, I don't see a need to switch.

Sony has that great Hard Cover Case as well which may not fit the iPad. IPad does not ship with that cover.

So far as PC functions, I much prefer my Dell XPS 600 at 3.20 GHz with a 24" HD Wide Screen Monitor.
