Don't get me wrong I still love my eink device (prs-505) and will continue to use it for novels. But surely I can't be the only person on here looking forward to having an iPad as a companion device to go with their eink one? Then again the Notion Ink Adam looks interesting too, but I doubt it'll be as sleek as the iPad

EDIT: oh and tbh stustaff we seem to be the only ones liking the iPad atm. Anyone else want to join us?
I love the idea, but I think it looks awful (bad design, Apple, cheap looking design) and it's too restrictive both in line with my politics and on a practical level. I'll wait to see what Asus do or any of the other slew of tablets that are bound to turn up soon and at a lower price (especially the Adam, which looks awesome).
