kevin,
The iPad is nothing more than a gloried (oversized) ipod touch. Nothing more really. It doesn't even have a camera. To be honest, a lot of us aren't sure who the target market consumer is exactly. There have been mentions of a 4G network inclusion which would be my only iffy justification for wanting one but tried it out a few weeks ago and it feels funny operating one of those. That's pretty much the same consensus for a lot tech-saavy people.
