And with the quality of apps for the iPhone, we know that there are going to be lots of great apps for the iPad too.
the iPad is easily the best "netbook", easily the best eReader, a great lightweight laptop (especially when more full featured apps come out), a great portable game player, etc.
I guess we'll have to wait until version 2.0 for a webcam.
People were talking about the possiblity of this being a textbook reader. If you could sell e-textbooks at half the price of printed ones, the amount of money one would save buying textbooks would easily bay for one of these iPads.
