I do not think iPads as they are
are ready for prime time. I think they are a toy for people with too much money. I think they may work as portable game machines and e readers. I do not own an iPad nor do I want one *(:>* ymmv

I disagree. You admit you don't own one, so you really don't know how they can be used. I own one and believe me, I don't have too much money. I do not play games but I do read books. It has not replaced my MBP and I don't see that happening in the near future, but it will at some point. They will only get faster and capable of doing more, they are not a fad or a toy for that matter.
Didn't people call Macs toys at one point?

in my anecdotal observation, most people have far more computing power than they actually use (though i'm not one of them). many have moved to laptops in lieu of a desktop. give them a decent keyboard and they'd be just as happy with an even more portable tablet device.
the iPad is the star trekkian future. btw, i think most on this forum would not be happy with JUST an iPad. we're not like those OTHER people.

I just don't see the iPad replacing my computer, mainly because of storage limitations. How do you go from a 500gb drive to a 32 or 64gb?
