iPAD

March 13, 2010 : iPad Specs
http://www.apple.com/ipad/specs/

Price Ranges
16GB : $499   with 3G  $629
32GB:  $599   with 3G  $729
64GB:  $699   with 3G  $829

What would you use it for? 
I had considered a Kindle or Sony reader to read books. I liked the weight. Jess got me an iPhone and I like the touch feature but the screen isn't big enough to see web pages and I don't really like the idea of the phone company requiring me to have data service to activate the phone. This iPad can solve a lot of issues.  Weight, 9" screen, load pdf of books, see webpages, load music, etc. etc.  great alternative.  Would prefer a 64GB one if I can get it.
