Having said that, though, I imagine I'm no different than the people who had no clue how they were going to use one before they bought it, but then figured out a bunch of uses for it and now consider it irreplaceable.
That isn't something that you should be worried about at all IMHO. They are just going to release a slimmer, faster better iPad next year, so if you want one, get one. I'm sure the iPad 2 is faster, but I have had zero issues with needing speed on my first gen... at no point did I think to myself "Geez I wish Kitchen Confiential would load faster" or "my god, those Angry Birds are slow"

Edit: Actually, the more I think about this, the more I realize I should just get the 16GB 3G iPad 1. I should be able to get one for under $400.
Don't you have an iPhone 4?

No need for the 3g ipad.
