Better for typing yes (but not by too much), but lousy on the screen size, and browsing experience.

I imagine actually holding an iPad and getting a feel for it would let us know if the typing experience was acceptable or not, until then, really it's all talk. considering how good the iPhone is though, I have doubt the iPad is good too.

For myself, I have no desire for a netbook. I don't need all the functionality of a laptop, and that assuming that an iPad isn't as functional as a laptop (I think they will be much the same in terms of functionality once apps start coming out). Something like the iPad is what I want. I would probably wait until the second or third generation (due to working out the bugs but also due to affordabiltiy). Personally, I think devices like this are the future of computing - not to completely eliminate other forms, of course.
