I'm also looking forward to being able to browse the web in bed. Has any of you ever tried using a notebook while lying down? I currently do that with my Macbook Pro and while it's do-able, I'm hoping that the experience will be better with the iPad.

Being able to use some of the Apple Store apps would be great too. Imagine using the SlingPlayer app on the iPad (which I own for an iPod Touch my daughter uses) and other odd apps.

Remember, Apple is selling the experience and not trying to solve world hunger with the iPad. For what I need it to do, I'm expecting it to be a great experience.

Can't wait for its release. I'll look to pick up the wifi version upon release.
Welcome back . I was also gone for a long time but returned to the fold, and now impatiently and with great anticipation waiting for the release of the iPad!
