Goto a Best Buy & play with it for a bit- esp. try typing on it for a few sentences. I don't think it will foot the bill as a replacement for a laptop or notebook if you're using it for business purposes & have to spend any real amount of time composing emails or documents. It's just not very good sizewise based on it's dimensions for enjoyable or noncumbersome input. As a media device & content reader it's totally fine I'd say, but I don't think it'll be replacing netbooks or laptops for a lot of business folk.
For me, if I had a iphone or ipod, I couldn't justify carrying this also when I can do all this for the most part with hardware I already own & have with me at all times already. Not to mention, the new iphone actually has the same processor as the ipad (the a4) and double the ram of the ipad compared to the new iphone ( ipad has 256 & the new iphone has 512)
I still can't understand how they didn't put in 512 into the ipad when they knew they were going to release their new phone will double that in literally a couple months. Would one think that it would be the inverse???? I guess that's why they'll sell so many in next years version & use that as an attractive selling point!
