I've contemplated it, my macbook pro just took a shit so I am without a laptop. I am scared to purchase a first gen apple product though, because we all know in September they will announce the second gen iPad
Yea, I'm trying to wait also, but I may go ahead and get it. I can always sell it when the 2nd gen comes out. I have a 3 month old MAcBooK Pro right now and love it. But I like the fact that it's so small and portable. Also you can get unlimited 3g internet for $30 a month with no contract...

Yes, but my problem is my current plan is with verizon and I don't live or work in an ATT service area, the wifi version would be fine for me. I was playing some of the games on it at best buy today, the real racing game is like playing forza, it was great, I'd love to have one but gotta save for a new laptop.
Eh... I have yet to find a purpose for this thing. I would suggest you guys read some reviews before you drop $500, this is definitely not one of Apple's better products.

Good business tool but pointless for the average consumer. My sister owns a photography business, and shes getting one to bring with her to client meetings to show them her photos instead of lugging her laptop and a portfolio with her. My dad said its a good idea for IT guys for like business meetings instead of passing out paper everyone has a Ipad or that HP Slate or whatever.
Other than that, its no real use. Apple people will buy it just to say they have it. But any Laptop or NetBook has much more practical use for the average consumer.
Lets see $500 for an IPAD with WIFI only or pay $30 a month for 3G service? For that price tag a Laptop just beats it in every way shape and form in terms of functionality.
For people that just want to do word processing and get on the internet, Apples are a huge waste of money as any PC can do that for 1/4 the price IMO. My opinion is most people that buy apples do it for a FAD when they dont really need one.

Oh i suppose people will also say it has this new E-Book fad that is going around where you read books on this stupid reader. My prediction is that in the next 2-3 years when the sales of these E-Book contraptions tank because people dont want to be carrying around their E-book, Iphone, Laptop, Ipod all together that someone will come out with a way to integrate it into a PC (if its not already done).
I dont see why Amazon couldnt offer direct digital downloads off their website of popular books. IM sure once that comes out it will render this E-Book fad obsolete.
My mom got one for xmas and it was the most retarded thing ive ever seen. No backlight, small text, it was just a horrible product and it was $400! Waste of money, just like the Ipad for most people IMO

yea, I must say I'm pretty surprised at how many people hate on it here. But, I love my MacBook Pro and all my iPods as well. This is more of a new toy for me, It's not like I need it. Their will always be people that talk down on things they haven't even seen or held in their hands and thats kinda sad really....

Yeah but this is true for the other side as well, there are just as many people out there that will say this is the greatest product ever made before they try it. I use a MacBook Pro and iPods/iPhones every day and don't mind them. But the iPad has no place for me, I don't need any more distractions, lol.

I can see it EVENTUALLY taking over like portable DVD players and such. But at its current size an weight its just not feasible. And the storage space isnt big enough. Again, a $400 Netbook with a 14in screen has a 300 gig HD, wireless card, and can play 1080P movies just as well. Sure you dont have the Apple Apps but thats what my Iphone is for.
Do i really want to play skeeball on a fucking bigger screen?
I still do not see the point at all.

Thats pretty cool, you should make a car dock like that for yours. I love pandora...
pretty cool video, but it's open opportunity to get your vehicle jack by someone lol
knightsleeper@$%&$
you can plug your existing IPHONE or IPOD TOUCH into your car and listen to Pandora way faster than installing an IPAD into a car, and way cheaper.
Still pointless. You get a big screen, yay. You can read books maybe on the ipad?

I think the ipad would be something thats cool to have. Does anyone know if the ipad can function as a wireless router, the palm pre plus does, thats a pretty cool feature IMO.
