and not to mention that laptops are 3x heavier, have half the battery time, and are a total inconvenience when you factor in the time it takes to load up...
and as far as the price goes... it's a new product. the cheapest iphone used to cost around $600 ($100 more expensive than the cheapest ipad), and now it's only $99...
sorry folks, but it's only useless to you because it obviously it wasn't intended for you, so you might as well be working as a bank teller in phoenix arizona trying to tell people on a message forum that a snow plow is useless. i don't know what you folks do in your productive time, but i'm the early stages of being a businessman, and this thing is PERFECT for me. and that's why, as we speak, i am currently on the reservations list for a 32GB iPad 3G.
