We know already that the iPad will run iPhone/iTouch apps. We also know that Apple frequently rejects apps that compete with Apple/Carrier apps -- as with Google Voice.

I'm wondering if Apple will allow the Kindle app, Stanza, B&N etc. to run on the iPad to keep competition away from it's iBookstore.

If they do -- that would be a MAJOR turnoff to me.
