For me I need something for research related tasks.

Put all my pdfs of research articles on it, be able to read them and highlight things and scribble notes in the margins like I do on printouts now.

Ideally I want it to be something like the iPad so I can have full internet to do searches and download pdfs right on it, e-mail colleagues, work with Word documents (mark up students papers etc.).

Something I could just read on would be useless to me for that purpose. It's fine with my Kindle since I'm just reading those, but for my research work I need a more full featured tablet.

And would prefer it had movies, magazines etc. to make it more worth the money. Afterall I can print PDFs out to my heart's content on the university's dime so I probably wouldn't buy something that I could only use for that purpose--thus no interest in an e-ink device like the Que or iRex.
