    Too late, I wouldn't be surprised if my pre-order would be rejected due to short supply.

    I'm not buying one though. So I don't care.

    Go big or go home. :)

    Have a 64GB waiting for me on the 3rd at the Apple Store around the corner.

    Isn't home where the big things are? All the stuff that's too clunky and uncomfortable to carry around outside?

    I prefer my iMac + xBox for home and my itouch for mobile, don't see the need for an iPad

    If it had multi-tasking, I might've considered it, but I can't even write a research paper on it without considerable hell.

    I do want an iPad but I've been burned before on a new apple product ie: iPhone 1.0! here's my $600 Mr. Jobs. Than 1 month later he drops the price $200... :rolleyes:

    I'll wait till v2.0 iPad comes out.

    No I will not what an Ipad is is to close to an itouch/phone they need to seperate them more clearly as well as support flash for that is my biggest concern...

    I think it will be easy enough to switch back and forth between Safari and Pages... Im mainly using this thing for notes, not research papers.. as well as Powerpoint Lectures... my laptop is ok but when I put in my textbooks its just too heavy to use everyday

    Yeah, but I'd have to save my work, press the home button, wait for Safari to reload, get my info, hit the home button, reopen pages, and reopen my document. No thanks.
