No argument, the iPad is nice, but I think we will get a lot better from Apple and others in the next 1-2 years. Until then I will make do with what I have,if I really needed to I could still take my laptop with me. The iPad is great around the house, but would you take it everywhere?
Fair points, I guess the answer is I will take it everywhere i would use it! I know thats a bit rubbish but i wouldnt watch a film when I walk to work,(so no iPad) I would watch a film on a 2hr train to London(So i would take my iPad)

etc etc

I agree we will get better devices in one or two years, but I want something now and will then get the other thing in a year or two. apple devices hold their value nicely that to me a year or two of use will be worth the $200 or so I will 'lose'
