Interesting thread. I got to say that I am really enjoying my Ipad 3G. It is an amazing machine. It is a great e-reader and I migrated all my Kindle books with the Amazon app. It was easy to add my non DRM books to my Ibook shelf. Nice to be able to surf the web and check email too. I use Evernote to transfer info from Ipad to my computer if needed. There are some amazing apps available to really enhance my computing experience. It is not a laptop replacement, but I haven't pulled mine out since getting this unit.
Thanks for all the lively discussions!
My most negative comment will be on the AT&T coverage restrictions. Since I live in a rural area, I only get AT&A Edge coverage which is somewhat slow. The Ipad is quite fast accessing Internet sites on Wi-Fi and no problem streaming video such as ABC shows. Basically non existent video streaming with the much slower 3G access.
