Anyone pre-ordering today?
I ordered one for my wife to use at home. I figure it will be convenient for web browsing on the couch or in bed. I went wifi but I'm thinking of changing that over to the 3g version for use on the boat this summer.

Seven alternatives to the Apple iPad (http://www.crunchgear.com/2010/03/12/seven-alternatives-to-the-apple-ipad/)
I gave in and ordered one. I'm always using my iPhone when I'm lounging around watching TV at night, figured it would be nice to have a larger screen and a faster device, so I figured why not. Thought it would be good for traveling too. My wife will probably use it a lot as well.

I really see no use for that thing. I have a lap top and I can surf on PS3 if I don't feel like pulling out my lap top. No offense to those that bought it but honestly look s like a waste of $500.
My wife got the Droid last night, pretty cool little phone.
At one point I thought the iPod wasn't a big need, same for the iPhone. I think tablets are going to be big in the near future, this is just the beginning.

A new toy is always fun!
^^ Pretty much what it boils down to :)

tablets are good
tablets without multi-tasking suck

Love mine so far. After using the iPad all weekend going back to the iPhone today is a little disappointing. No killer apps yet from what I've found, though Netflix streaming and ABC's app are both pretty damn good.
