Sure you can put off purchases forever waiting for the "next big thing", but if products will be on the shelves by Q3-Q4 of this year, that's not much time to wait for what may be a real change in display tech.
That's the kind of attitude I have to this stuff at the moment as well, I'd quite a tablet that would complement my existing sony reader, particularly with regards to technical works, comics and magazines and while the ipad could fill this role it seems worth it to wait and see how good something like the notion ink adam or another pixelQi devices turns out in reality.
