I agree the iPad could be used for some productivity stuff--but it's far from ideal.
Most government docs in the us are 8.5x11"--in the EU I assume their A4. The 9.6" screen isn't ideal for reading these. Doable in landscape mode, but lots of scrolling.
Pages is a pretty limited word processor-but might could get the job done. But having to pair with a wireless keyboard (or the keyboard dock) is clunkier than having a laptop etc.
And I say that all as some that does want a tablet for productivity reasons. But I'd always want my laptop and desktop to do real work. I'd just use the tablet for reading and marking up documents and that sort of thing once there's one with a screen big enough for working with documents at 100% view (or very close) in portrait mode.
