Comics on a decent sized screen!
Well big enough anyway. Just. I've done some experimenting on my tablet pc and at the size that the iPad screen will be comics are perfectly readable if "slightly" smaller than I'd like.
If it had another inch on it it would have been perfect but 9.7" is fine. Especially with the ips screen. I don't know how many of you have used an ips screen before but I have one and it's by far the best screen I've ever used for general computing purposes. I can read comics on my tablet pc but if you angle it just slightly it looks terrible. With ips however you can read at pretty much any angle, they're awesome.

Comics (manga) are huge here in Japan - in more ways than one - since they are huge in size and thickness too. I wonder if they will ever become electonic...
I'm hoping that magazines will be available in glossy beautiful color and for very reasonable subscription rates. All kinds of magazines, for eg. Time, National Geographic, House and Home etc. and of course, fashion magazines. Foreign magazine subscriptions are very expensive here and I always feel guilty about throwing them out.
I'm also hoping for gorgeous full color cooking books...
P.S. What is an ips screen?
