Would anyone who owns one of these babies care to comment? I own an iPod Touch (essentially an iPhone without the phone, but with wi-fi capability) and I absolutely love it. I’ve loaded it up with apps (mostly Free, some @99 cents) and when my grandchildren see me, they practically rip it from my hands. I forgive them because they are aged 2 to 5, and because they’re cute.
Played with one at my Apple fanatic sister’s house this weekend.
Not a bad device, but it’s an “appliance”.
Good for surfing and entertainment, but certainly not for PC or Mac replacement.
I bought one of the 3G versions from the Apple store. It’s supposed to ship Thursday.
I am a gadget head. We have 2 computers, 2 laptops, a server, 2 blackberries and various other gadgets at home. This will be my first venture in to the world of Apple. I wanted an iPhone for a while but not enough to give up my Blackberry. Personal Opinion but my Blackberry Curve 8900 blows the iPhone away in the realm of email. I will never give it up.
I bought one of the iPads for books and games.

Well, perhaps Swordmaker can ping the list for some good information for you ... :-)
He passed around a iPad. If you have a iTouch as I have, you have 95% of it. Pages, Numbers & Keynote each $9 each. Last night a reseller came from Colorado Springs
came to the local Internet café.
I stood in line Friday. I totally love my iPad and love it more each day.
I also have the iPad Touch ... but much prefer the iPad. So much more real estate. And iBooks is terrific ... it will be much better when their book store has more of a selection. Games are more fun on the iPad.
I am relaxing in bed, reading the latest on FR, using my basic bottom of the line iPad. If email comes in, I do not have to get up to read it.
I read books on it, and much prefer it over the Kindle. If I can’t sleep, I can listen to Coast to Coast via IHeartRadio. When I have to run errands, sit in a waiting room, or make a presentation, I can load my documents on it, and go.
It is a wonderful addition to my trusty MacBook Pro and my iPhone. I would never be without one!

Take your Touch, bump the memory to 64MB, stretch it to big enough for normal use, improve connectivity to always on line, add GPS, and increase battery life to just nuts. It’s great. Another week and they’ll have to surgically remove it from me.
