If you guys don't want or see the point of an iPad that's fine. But it's nonetheless a great device. There are no other slates like it, and there will be no other slate with an app store as large (or IMO a slate as good, Apple have had years of experience from the iPhone). Once I get mine I'll use it often, I'll be able to travel around and have a fully functional computer-like device, no it isn't capable of doing any of my work, but it covers everything else.
Right so basically it's great for doing all those things that i already do on my computer !

And how much do they expect me to pay again to be able to do all those things that i can already do on my computer ?
Sure, they expect you to pay $499 - $699 (+$130 for the 3G model) for a WiFi iPad (16/32/64GB), for the ability to do those things on a multi-touch 9.7" slate that you can carry around anywhere.
While i agree that we are not the target audience for this device i cant help but think those that are in the target audience are being conned and in the end they are not buying it for any functionality at all really but because it is by Apple & Shiny.
It's an amazing piece of tech, but even the consumers that buy it would return it if it didn't do anything they wanted.
