iPads are great

Love them or hate them, I've bit the bullet and bought one and its so cool.

That's all, thanks.

Sorry Paul, but I can't help but think they're a bit of a Novelty and if you've got an iPhone/Blackberry and a Laptop, that's all you need.

Glad you're having fun though.

They don't replace anything, but just just do things better and quicker than both, easy to carry and you won't actually know you need one, until you start using it

I'd love one but IMHO I'm gonna wait until it has input capability

It could be soooooo much more useful then

I'd love to buy one as an Apple MacPro and laptop owner, but as Apple won't support Flash on the iPad (as with the iphone) they will be quickly overtaken by Android driven Tablets which will be technically better and cheaper, much like HTC has on the phones.

Best

Daz has hit the nail on the head. It's a novelty item around the house that is actually very useful for random quick web access, digital photo frame, and music. I haven't missed the lack of flash either.

You are right in that if you expect it to do more then you'll find it slightly wanting.

Streaming films from my pc is cool though, but I need a faster pc now

I justified it to the wife as an accessory to her new kitchen!!
