As someone who reviews these things and has played with many devices, I would have to say for its size, price, and available features, it definately beats the competition. You will see a legion of iPhone programmers who may have wanted to add certain features to their apps flock to the iPad because of the real estate that will be available to them. The whole idea that the device supports the many thousands of applications on the iPhone also opens doors that most other portable devices, of this size, don't have.
Finally, it will encourage other big name electronics companies to make devices like this and we will get better prices on this device and more options on other devices. To me, this is a very exciting day and I'm not even an Apple fan.
