    We have an ipad2, love it. Totally different animal than a full PC/laptop...does most of what most people use a PC for anyway, surfing the web, watching videos, email, reading, music....in a form factor that is much more convenient. I think the whole point of tablets is simplicity...no need for extra ports, etc. I lug around a laptop for work everyday, would much rather carry the iPad.

    I bought L a Kindle Fire for reading books, and after playing with it decided I wanted one for surfing the net and such. I really like it, and we got 2 for less than the cost of an ipad.

    wife has iphone, we have an Ipad 1st generation, and a blackberry playbook. My work phone is a BB so i like the playbook as the wife and kids can surf the internet on the road. We also have a laptop and that is the first choice for any of us when sitting on the couch, then the ipad then the playbook. I don't mind the playbook, but the smaller screen is a bit of a pain. both the ipad and playbook were gifts so i'm not complaining! My beef with the ipad is the compatability mismatch with adobe....

    Do a search on the Ainol Nova 7 if you want a cheapo one with a great capacitive touchscreen for about $139. Just a toy but a great one.
