I do think it's a tad overpriced. I'd say $100 or so more than what I'd pay. If the 32GB wsa $500 I may jump on one. But for $600 with the limitations that bug me--annoying to get files on it and accessible to all relevant apps (all PDF readers etc.), no flash (not as big a deal as I thought, but still keeps some sites I use from working), screen an inch or so smaller than my ideal etc. I'll wait for at least the 2nd gen.

Based on past experience with apple, I imagine with the 2nd gen they'll just scrap the 16GB model and sell a 32GB for $500, so I'll probably jump then if there's not an Android tablet or something I like more by then. Can just play around with my girlfriend's iPad in the meantime!
