I think the design is a bit lacking, but I generally like the idea. I just wish it did more. I have to think the next iteration of this device will be light years better than this first one; And that's why, I think I'll be waiting 'til next year for something like this.

This is perfect for me and ill tell you why. I am constantly on the road and it all comes down to this: i want instant on internet and at 30 bucks a month they cant go wrong. This is perfect for me (as well as my father). I am always on the go and i just want to log on check my email, check a few sites and log off. It will not replace my desktop, but i don't generally need my desktop or my netbook for that matter! When this comes out good buy asus n10j hello ipad.
Could someone please please force apple to change this things name.
If the multilingual text recognition software works fine it will be very good office assistant. Of course that functionality of news and book reader is very common nowadays.
For me the key is in long lasting battery and small consumption, text recognition input, GPS, optimal form factor, good free software pack and price at 400$ or lower
I would like something like that with some portable CAD/GIS application and office software package.
Color electron paper (even 255 colors) and touch screen with minimum energy consumption will be optimal for my job.
I'm not going to judge it until i can have time to use it and explore its true potential!
I think Apple could have done much better than just making a bigger I-phone. I hope the next versions are much better. Although I do like the way this gets plugged to the keyboard :)
I agree with a lot of people commenting here. It really appears as if the iPad is just a gigantic iphone...well, more like an ipod touch since it's not a phone. I'm sure the utility of it will be expanded because the device itself is bigger, but aside from being just a casual internet-able "computer" that would be nice to have, it doesn't appear to add anything revolutionary. Personally, I was hoping that Apple would come out with a true tablet: an ipad sized computer running OS X that would have the same functionality as all their other computer but would bring multitouch gestures and touch screens to the next level. Maybe that's still in the plans...
