I'm a big old Mac hater (that's right I said it!) so I don't have many nice things to say about the iPad.
It's lacking in so many features that its useless as far as I'm concerned. It's just an extra large cell phone. Tablet PC's have been around for a while now so if I really wanted one I would go get a regular one that was cheaper than the iPad. Really in all honesty though I feel as if laptops are more efficient for business use overall, especially in this industry. If a tablet PC is something you just got to have however I would look into the WePad, it makes up for many of the features that the iPad is missing, while its not available it has an SD card slot, usb ports, and flash (so you can actually view any website!).
I think its only going to be available in Germany at first for the soft launch, but I personally cannot wait for it!
Here is a link for it:
